I have two of these. On top of my conical. They behave really funny!

I also a ball luck spunding valve I used for my kegs, ocassionally. THat's what I did to check the pressure reading on Blichmann pressure gauge.
I am writing here to make sure I didn't do anything that made them not work as expected.


1. First one the gauge, in the begining, would show 2 psi yet the gas post gauge would show 10. In time slowly but sure both look alike. I can't release pressure on this one to recheck it (I am in the middle of the fermentation) and then
2. the second one seemed more reactive, yet when I release the pressure from that fermenter, the gauge still indicated 10psi. THe gaspost gauge shows 0.

Is anyone aware of such anomalies. Did I do something wrong ?!
