Wort Splitter - by r8rphan
So, I made something friday that I've been wanting to make for a while..
I split the output of my CFC into a Tee that goes to the two carboys so they can both be filled simultaneously.... And since for whatever reason, the flow was 'never' equal, I had to sit there for 15 minutes manually pinching the tubes to keep them filling at the same rate.... PITA, hand cramps, etc..
So I made this little doo-hickey that allows me to use a couple 3/8" ball valves.. and then becomes a storage carrier for itself when not in use...
Used it for the first time yesterday, and it is just one of those things that makes brew day a little easier.
