I recently got this and I'm trying to figure out the best way to connect this to the Brewbuilt 100 glycol chiller. The tubing size that comes with the Anvil coil is too small to fit on the post on the chiller and tubing I have that fits on the chiller post is too large for the coil. Any suggestions? Thank you.

BEST ANSWER:I'd recommend looking into some quick disconnect fittings from CPC. That will solve multiple problems, cause 1) they have reducers so you can go from the larger tubing on the chiller to smaller tubing for your anvil system. And 2) you can now easily disconnect your system from the chiller for easy cleaning and not spill any glycol solution on your floor.

The cooling pump stopped on its second day causing my beer temp to spike 7 degrees overnight. Luckily I had a H****r Fr****t fountain pump to cool the brew.
The remainder of the equipment appears to work well.
This thing really works. Great value. Portable. Using a 1.5 gallon cooler. Just add ice in the morning and at night. Perfect temperature control. Great for small places and budget conscious brewers.
