I know this has been asked 1,000 times before but each time it seems to be a different issue. So basically I can’t get beer to dispense at all. I had a similar problem earlier and temporarily fixed it by connecting the gas to the out post but that doesn’t work now. It isn’t a clog because I didn’t dry hop, there’s nothing solid in the keg. I took a rag and a nail and pushed in on the poppet and beer sprayed all into the rag. I relieved all the pressure in the keg, took the liquid post out and snipped a bit of the spring on the poppet thinking that maybe the force pushing upward was too strong for the QD. This didn’t help either. I’m at a loss here. I have no idea why it isn’t dispensing.
 
Next step: disconnect tap, connect line to keg and see if beer starts spurting out. Have bucket and washcloth handy...
