Over pressurized kegs
« on: August 23, 2016, 08:39:48 AM »
I've been having some problems with my kegs after I just refilled my CO2 tank. My kegs are consistently over pressurizing. I'll bleed them, set the regulator down to 5-10 PSI and within a few minutes they shoot up to 50 PSI and nothing I can do seems to stop it from happening.

Anyone got any advice? I'm out of ideas.

maybe the regulator is broken  if you want to test it on a different regulator let me know to see if that may be the problem

I think I fixed it. I took apart the diaphragm and cleaned it out and it seems to be working now.
