i have been having this problem lately- the rubber nib that stops the flow of beer in the beergun comes dislodged from the metal bracket while i'm bottling. i fill a bottle, start pulling out the beergun, and suddenly the bottle is foaming over like mad. i get the tip out of the bottle and there's beer spraying across the room; either the tip is partly dislodged and aiming a spray, like when you stick your finger over the end of a hose, or it has come off altogether, and the beer is just spraying everywhere. twice i didn't realize it had come off and i capped the bottle in a panic, capping the stupid rubber thing inside the bottle! it's infuriating. then i have to unplug the line from the keg, clean up, find the stupid rubber thing, get it in place, sanitize it. that over-foamed bottle is ruined, beer is lost. thought i would ask on here to see if i'm the only one before contacting blichmann
