source, fit one end to the tap (this may require a trip to the hardware store to source a
suitable fitting) and fit one of the plastic hose connectors to the other. Connect the
hose fitting to one of the condenser water fittings. Fit the remaining plastic hose
connector to the other length of vinyl tubing, connect to the free condenser water
fitting and put the other end in a suitable drainage point eg. in a sink or drain. The Brass
Hose Connector Upgrade Kit is available from your home brew shop, shown below.
