Default Brass Hose Bid to Copper?

So I bought a new brass male hose bib and screwed it into the copper?
fitting. Not using a 3-4 " extension piece.



I did this 2 weeks ago, and after thinking about this, this is not good.
I need to use a different piece of metal in-between right?


Brass to copper is fine. You did use pipe dope on the threads?

Or at least the Teflon tape?
