hey everyone.
so I have kegs but no CO2 tank (gotta wait for payday), but I kegged an imperial brown ale and borrowed a CO2 tank from a friend, hit it with enough CO2 to purge any air and let it sit. Well, the other day I was moving the keg and it tipped a bit and a few drops of beer spilled out around the lid. apparently I didn't either add enough pressure or there is a leak and and it appears air leaked back into my keg. (keg lids are not air tight without pressure from the inside right?)
How long do I have? I assume its already been about 3 days. maybe I will pull a sample when I get home and check it out. Also unfortunate, all my other fermenters/carboys are in use. so no transfer.
Thanks for the help!
