I hooked my keg up to my CO2 tank right after the keg was filled. I set the regulator at 12psi, opened the valve on the tank and then closed it once the keg equalized.
I haven't confirmed yet if my connection from regulator to keg is still leaking. There was 800 PSI in the short little connection from regulator to CO2 tank and after 24 hours the pressure was down to around 8psi. Does this seem right? Would the beer absorb this much CO2 right off the bat?
Until I confirm whether or not my connection leaks I dont' really want to leave the tank on all night. I don't feel like blowing $20 on a refill so soon. Not to mention for $20 I could buy new connections and a keg rebuild kit.
