I bought three Dark Star burners, a 20 lb. propane cylinder, and a three-outlet propane distribution post. The idea was to have all three burners connected for convenience and also in case I need to run two at once (for example, maintaining mash tun temperature while heating sparge water). However, I discovered that the distribution tree has different fittings. They're not the QCC-1 connectors that the Dark Star's regulator uses. I don't know the correct term for this size fitting. They're meant to connect to propane appliances.

Is there an adaptor that can connect the regulators to each outlet on the distribution post? Does this different fitting size affect the pressure? The Dark Star manual says it requires "cylinder pressure."
