A manometer. The Dwyer Mark II model 25 is the unit of choice among the coal burning set. You'll need to utilize metal brake line, copper tubing etc. to keep the hose away from the heat of your flue.

Manometers can be made at home with clear tubing and a board. Filled with water they measure inches of water. I made a set for work years ago to measure air pressure in aircraft fuel tanks.
