Hi all
Looking for a product suggestion
Once upon a time I had this:
Lever tap on a filter, above the kettle- pop the kettle lid open, press the tap til it's full, happy days
Now I have a second machine (coffee) just visible in the lower left of the pic and I'm looking for a way to top that up too without having to rotate the tap, aim, miss, get water all over the place. Also, bonus, have it be unattended.
Behind the tap is a cupboard, and if, for example could find a very, very small cistern (it'd only really need to be the size of a fag packet) I could have it inside the cupboard at the height of the water level I wanted to keep in the appliances, with two pipes permanently into each, set and forget. The water tanks of these two machine only ever contain cold water, and both are heat-as-they-go.
The quickest solution would just be to have a water filled pipe between the two kettles so an either-way siphon will keep them both at the same level, and we continue to fill one appliance with the tap, but it'd be nice to do away with the tap
Can anyone think of a suitable product, or an alternative I can look at?
