Ok, so I kegged two beers this last weekend (an IPA and a Kolsch). I initially set both kegs at 30 psi for about 24 hrs, then dropped the IPA to 8 psi, and the Kolsch to 12 psi. The Kolsch is holding steady at 12 psi for the last 48 hrs, however the IPA keeps gradually rising back up to 30psi. I released all the pressure in the keg, set back to 8 psi, then a few hrs later it's back up to 30.
I took the top off tonight just to look inside and the kegged beer has a head, is this normal? I put the lid back on, took it to 8 psi, released it to remove any O2, then turned off the gas completely. A few hrs later...30 psi, anyone have any recommendations to get it to remain at my desired 8 psi?
Thanks!
