I am on my 4th batch since I went to a bottling bucket and filler and can't get it to not leak. I attach the tubing to the spigot on the bottling bucket, then the other end to my crappy spring loaded filler then open the spigot. My beautiful (and sticky) wort runs down the side of the tube and leaks out the bottom of the filler as well before I press the bottom into the bottle. So I ended up just tilting the bottle to the side and using the spigot. I want to be more gentle...that's why I bought the filler in the first place. Am I doing something wrong? I have tried smaller tubing, but it won't fit over the spigot.
