wort chiller hook up...

Post by JeffPorter »

I have one of those bulky "pull-out" kitchen faucets...Is there any way to hook up a copper wort chiller to that, or am I F-d? I know that there are adaptors you can get, but not sure they will work on my stupid fancy faucet...

Does your pull out faucet have a hose that connects under your sink? See if you can hook up your chiller underneath there.

Unscrew the spout from the end of the hose and take it to Home Depot or equivalent. You can test out adapters until you find the right matching thread. It exists out there somewhere.
