Just got a TAD and am using it for the first time. I primed and carbed the beer normally. I hooked up the tap and let sit in the fridge overnight. Next day we started drinking it, and all was well at first. But after a couple hours, pressure dropped and I had to add another CO2 cartridge. Later in the day I had to add a third cartridge. Today (3 days after tapping) pressure is down again. That will make four cartridges in as many days. I know the seal to the bottle neck is good because no liquid leaked out when the beer was above the neck. I'm tightening the cartridge holders pretty tight already. Am I doing something wrong??? Could the beer have been under-carbed and now I'm losing CO2 to force carbing???
