I have a ball lock keg that started leaking from the threaded port that the post attaches to. It leaks around the little rim at the bottom of the port(see picture) that looks like a washer (it's not a washer, it's just part of the port). I've never had this problem before. My guess is that the port must have bent a little from removing the post for cleaning. The port is probably welded on, so perhaps the weld cracked. Nonetheless, I want to fix this. I was thinking of just filling the rim around the port with solder. Is this a good idea? I've never soldered stainless steel, so I'm not sure how well this would work. Anyone have any suggestions?
