This is because the end of the faucet screw threads (where you removed your aerator) is not compressing the black rubber washer provided against the internal body of the valve. Some remedies....1 snug up the rotating collar with pliers, 2 ...remove and replace washer with one that is just a bit thicker. 3 send me your address and I'll send a thicker washer. This leak is nor usual, but it relates to the different styles of sink faucets in the market.....
