Co2 gurgle, help!

[jlinz]

I had a leak in my keg system and I think I found it. All was good. But now I hear a sleight gurgle maybe very sleight hissing sound from one of the gas in connects while it's on the post. But, I can find anything squirting all around with star san. Looks like there is no leak, but I hear that sleight sound. Could it just be the sound of gas going into the keg or should there be absolutely no sound?
Don't want to lose another tank. Help!

Gas going in to the keg should stop once the keg pressurizes fully. If you still hear hissing then you likely have a leak somewhere, but most of my leaks have been so small you can't hear them.

Check the o-ring on the keg post, and make sure it is the right one for your posts. Are all of your o-rings fresh and lubed, including the dip tube o-ring? I had one keg that gave me all sorts of trouble until I did a full tear-down and replaced all the soft parts.

Just a guess but it could be a partially clogged dip tube. Beer gurgling as it flows though the obstruction. I would think you would see foam in the line or be getting foamy pours though?

If this problem is with a pin lock keg perhaps the OP used ball lock O-rings on the posts.
Pin lock post O-rings are thicker than ball lock post O-rings, a fact that escapes many retailers, never mind users.

With pressure on the gas disconnect and plugged on the keg post, you should be able to wiggle/cock the disconnect on the post without it leaking gas...

Cheers!

No, it's a ball lock keg.

Change the O-rings. Use Keg lube and tighten fully. The leak should go away
