1. A condenser bag comprising:
a body bounding a channel that extends between an inlet opening at a first end and an outlet opening at an opposing second end, the body being comprised of a polymeric film;
an intake port bounding a port opening that extends therethrough, the intake port being directly physically secured to the first end of the body so that the port opening communicates with the channel of the body; and
a tubular transfer line having a first end directly mechanically coupled with the body at a first location located between the inlet opening and the outlet opening so as to communicate with the channel and an opposing second end directly mechanically coupled to the intake port so as to communicate with the port opening thereof.
