I just put a brand new co2 bottle on my keg system. This is my first homebrew kegging. After about a week the co2 bottle is almost empty. I sprayed it with soapy water but seen no bubbles. Does anyone have any tricks for finding keg co2 leaks?
My air lock keeps filling with foam. I keep changing it out for a clean one. This is only my third time I have brewed and the first time I have seen this. My question is should I keep changing it for a clean airlock? I am making sure it is sanitized and I fill the new one with sanitized water.
Thanks for the response. I had it in the primary for a week. I did not see any bubbling today. I did see a lot 24 to 48 hours in. I did see some foam or scum on the edges. I had it stored at around 65 degrees. It was in a beer kit bucket.
I just transferred to my secondary fermentor. I did not have any foam in the primary fermentor. Maybe a little around the edges. My hydrometer reading looked good. Should I be concerned I did not have much foam?
Thanks for your help.
Hello all
I just joined. I also just got my second home brew kit. I did some home brewing a long time ago. I am just getting back into it now. I do not remember much from before so I am going to have to learn the basics again. Looking forward to chating with everyone.
