My Anvil bucket sometimes doesn't seal great, so I put a 10lb. weight plate on it. Recently, I had mistakenly used a gas ball lock fitting with an integrated check valve on the fermenter to get "free" CO2 to purge serving kegs. When I went to correct this issue, I realized there was a good amount of pressure in the fermenter. So my question is, because I had put a 10lb. weight on the lid, does that mean it was at 10 PSI? I am thinking not because I am not including the "per inch" in a calculation, but not really sure? What is the correct answer, is it possible to determine a rough idea?
