I just build my kegerator to a functional point. I still have some fascia to complete to make it pretty. I force carbonated two kegs at a buddy's house while constructing this.
Here is the reason for my following question. I connected the gas line to the keg and heard a dripping noise. Apparently I didn't have a tight seal (forgot to tighten it in my impatience) where the hose connected to the regulator, causing the pressurized beer to come back throught the gas line. I'm thinking that in the future, if I add an uncarbonated keg to the series to force carb., the pressure difference will cause beer from existing kegs to come through the gas lines and contaminate the lines and the new batch with their flavours.
Do experienced people disconnect all of their other kegs for a few days while force carbing a new batch? Or is there another way around this?
