Hi all,
Question for the more experienced with their kegs.
On some of my kegs, when I tighten the out keg post, the dip tube will tend to twist as I tighten the last few turns. This then in turn causes the bottom of the dip tube to catch and scratch along the bottom of the keg and twist/deform out of shape as it catches along the bottom of the keg (along the rim of the depression). The beer dispenses OK though.
All of these kegs are the type with the curved dip tube that reaches to the bottom center of the keg where there is a depression for the bottom tip of the tube resides.
Is this normal?
The only thing that I can think of is that I replaced all of the gaskets on all of my kegs when I first got them. The in/out gaskets were replaced with round gaskets, as opposed to the more flat type.
Thanks in advance.
