I am trying to carbonate some water and am hearing the tank continuously running. When I take the gas valve off the keg it stops, but I cannot see or hear any leaks in the keg. Is this normal since it is starting to absorb CO2 or is this a sign of a leak?
EDIT: This is a used keg with the original poppets, and it seems the gas post is worn. If the ball connector is on just right it’s fine, but if it gets bumped it starts a very slow leak. Looks like I’ll be replacing the poppets.
