I'm reading up on building a CFC, based on the one found at https://www.homebrewtalk.com/wiki/index.php/How_to_make_a_Counter_Flow_Chiller. All the necessities are crystal clear, but it assumes experience in soldering pipe. I've seen plenty on This Old House and whatnot, but I haven't a clue about the brushes.
The materials list includes a 1/2" to 1/4" reducer coupler. 1/2" fitting brushes are abundant, but anything smaller takes a little more looking. Can I just jam a 1/2" brush into 1/4" fitting without bending the brush to crap? Or are the bristles rigid enough that you need a different brush for almost every diameter?
Thanks
