The faucet on my keg tower drips very slowly. This is my first batch to be kegged and my whole setup is dry and tight as far as I can tell. I've been running a weak water/starsan "simulation" for the past 4 days just to make sure I don't get any surprises when I transfer my hefe to the keg later this week. As I said, I've taken care of every little leak thus far, but I have no ideas how to deal with this small dripping out of my tower.
I'll describe the situation as clearly as I can:
I leave my liquid out and gas in lines connected to the keg in the kegerator at all times. I have the gas currently turned off, but the keg is under pressure and holding. The faucet is as closed as I can make it. I can physically press it a little farther, and the dripping slows, but if I leave it be, I lose about 2 cups of liquid over 24 hours. Short of rigging a rubberband to the faucet handle, what can I do?
Thanks all for your help!
