Hello All,
I have an issue, and since I am pretty new to kegging, I cannot troubleshoot this myself.
I have a two tap kegerator that I built. I have a three guage, taprite regulator, 5lbs of co2, and perlick faucets. I have been using this system for a few months now with no issues. Until now.
One of my primaries, filled with hefe, is almost ready to keg, but I have only two kegs, so I will need to keg it soon. I have been drinking from KegA for sometime and KegB is still quite full. So I disconnect KegA to try to determine how much is in it (how drunk I will need to get this weekend ;-) ).
My idea was to weigh the partially filled KegA and subtract the weight of an empty keg to determine the remainder. Easy enough. I weigh it. Get the an approx. amount of ~.75 gallons. No biggie.
Here's the problem. I reattach the keg. And go to the tap to reward myself for a job well done. Pull the tap...and a very weak stream flows out and then stops. I try it again...nothing. I check all connections. No joy.
I take KegA's beer out (black) connector connect to KegB and the tap flows fine. So I take KegB's beer out connector to KegA and nothing. So my thinking is that there is something blocking the tube in KegA or there is something wrong with the
actual beer out post of KegA.
For the record I have disconnected the co2 from KegA. Released the co2 from the actual release valve and pumped in more co2 just to confirm that the co2 is flowing freely as well.
Has anyone ran into this? Any suggestions.
