Hi - rookie kegger here with an unfortunate situation - This is only my 5 or 6th kegged beer... I have a CO2 tank that ran out of gas about 12 hours into a burst carb last night. It's a full 5 gal corny with an IPA that was pressurized to 40 PSI. Because the tank emptied, I removed the gas line. Should I assume it will continue to carbonate with the remaining pressure, and slowly decrease pressure. Or will it maintain that 40PSI since there is no more CO2 coming in? I can not get a refill until Monday, since everything is closed for holidays.
Most importantly - will i get to try this beer before the weekend? What happens if I serve till pressure is gone? It smelled sooooo good going in the keg, and the sample did not disappoint!
