I’m trying to set up a quick-connect system for my natural gas crawfish boiler and could use some guidance. Here’s my setup:

  • Gas line on patio: 1/2" female threads
  • Boiler connection: 3/4" male threads

I want to use quick-connect fittings so I can easily detach the boiler and store it in the garage. My initial thought was:

  • A 1/2" male quick-connect for the gas line
  • A 3/4" female quick-connect for the boiler (though I recognize I might need an adapter)
  • A compatible hose to link them

But I’m struggling to find a straightforward kit or parts that match these sizes. Am I missing something? Are there adapters or specific brands that simplify this?

Edit: Thank you @hex123456 and @David_Eight! I got it figured out. In case anyone finds this for a similar setup, here is what I did:

That's a really good point. I do have it backwards then. Thanks!
