Why did I wait so long to make one of these?  This really makes the job of cleaning lines easier.

Take the green adjustment cap off at the and you will be left with a piece that has some threads, cut the threads off and you can force the disconnect on and "cut" threads into the plastic.  I heated up the disconnect while I did this to make it easier.

 

ETA: got the idea from here https://www.homebrew...tml#post5222258

in that picture you posted does the green part that the post is threaded onto come off?  if yes did you check if the post would thread onto the black part natively?  any issues with leaking during use?

Nice! I was thinking about making something like that, but it seems like kind of a small container? I usually let the cleaning solution run through each line for 10-15 min so I mix in a keg, maybe this is overkill?

The disconnect I had would not screw into the black end. no leaks for me.

I use a keg, 3 gallon one, for a big cleaning but figured this would be good for one or two lines.
