I kegged my first batch in a 3 gallon keg on Sunday. Set the pressure to 11 psi for slow carb. I wanted it to carb enough for Saturday. So I tested last night and it was carbing but I bumped the psi up to 20 to speed up the process.
This morning I checked on it before leaving for work and the psi is still at 20 but the gas gauge dropped right above the red area. (Yesterday it was around 40). Do I have a leak? The co2 tank is in the fridge. I checked for leaks when I kegged on Sunday but didn't find any. This morning I tightened everything up again. Still at work but interested to see if it dropped anymore when I get home. Also the first three days the gas gauge was steady. Not sure if bumping up the psi affected the gas gauge?
Thanks!
