Hello,
It sounds like you have air trapped in the brake system.
This might have happened when you unscrew the brake hose.
When air gets trapped in the brake lines it will make the pedal squishy, as the air will compress between the fluid making the pedal go to the floor and make the braking much weaker.
You will have bleed the brake system to purge the air out.
Here are couple of helpful guides:

I have attached diagrams for brake bleeding procedure below.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
