I tossed together a five gallon batch of carbonated water, as my wife's been blowing a lot of money on bottles. I forced carbed at 60 psi for five minutes, degassed, set to 12 PSI (with 15ft of beer line) and I have water spraying where the L-shaped tube (inserted the beer line) and the tap connect.

Can you guys help me trouble shoot this? I've tried adjusting the small nut, decreasing pressure...I've only kegged a handful of batches, but I've never had this issue.

I'm hoping it's just a simple bone-head mistake I'm making . Thanks in advance!

Did you shake the keg after putting pressure on and what was the temperature of the water? Sounds like its leaking where the tube connects to the metal pipe, check the small metal clip or clamp that holds the tube..
