Leave the gas on for 24 hours, if you have a leak the tank will be empty. If you still have pressure after 24 hours you can be confident you don't have a leak. I get my tank filled for 3 dollars at the local beer distributor so it's a cheap test.
Does anyone take apart the lid pressure release valve on corny kegs and clean and sanitize them? I did a search and I can't find anything on this. To me it makes sense to clean and sanitize it.
I have 4 corny kegs for sale. Two are regular ball lock corny kegs and the other two are converted pin lock kegs. I actually prefer the converted ones because they are two inches shorter so they fit in my fridge better. I don't really want to mess with shipping so pick up only please, I live...

At serving pressure it will take about 2 weeks to carb completely. You can burst carb to do it in about 5 days but that would require you to set it at 3x the serving pressure for 24-36 hours then back it down to serving pressure for a few days. I'm sure it's "drinkable" at 3 or 4 days but you...
Tasted kind of phenolic. Kind of plastic like. But i believe it was caused by the spices in the beer and not wild yeast. Recipe had cinnamon, ginger all spice, and clove.
Made a 10 gallon batch of beer about 3 months ago. After a month I kegged half of it and let the other half in a secondary. After two months they both had a nasty taste that I thought was a wild yeast contamination. I dumped the half in the secondary and due to laziness never dumped the kegged...
A 5.3 mash pH then added phosphoric acid to sparge water to get a 5.7 pH. Added some gypsum and calcium chloride to get in spec according to bru'n water. I have done a lot to rule out possibilities. Just made a batch on Sunday using 100 percent ro water with salt additions. We will see how that...
I just emailed my water supply and they don't even use chloramine. I thought they did but they do not. So chlorine is pretty easy to remove from what I hear so maybe my phenol taste is coming from wild yeast. Is there a way to eradicate them?
