Thanks for reporting!

This is not actually a bug. It's due to the way the vanilla cauldron works, why our tunnels cannot interact with it the same as regular fluid containers.

This is a feature request (also) tracked in CyclopsMC/Flopper/issues/26, that could potentially get implemented at Common Capabilities.

It looks like this didn't work yet in 1.21.1 either. Will push a fix in a bit.
