I think I'm gonna go ahead and bottle the batch that's in there now. I'd rather do keg troubleshooting without having to worry about sanitation. I think my leak might have been at the regulator, since when I first hooked everything up, I sprayed the posts of the keg with starsan, no bubbles...

Another question while I'm in here: What are the socket sizes on Ball lock keg posts? Once is a standard socket, the other is a non standard size. 12 point I think?

Ok, I brewed this last Sunday (2nd batch so far!). I did stray a little bit from the recipe (added the pumpkin sooner, upped the spices some), and pitched using the Wyeast option. My OG was at 1.046, right on the money according to the recipe. I had plenty of action the first couple days, and...
