Had a small leak around the quick disconnect of my keg.

I figured it was the post (after swapping disconnects) so I de-pressurized , unscrewed post, checked fittings, put keg lube on o-rings. Still leaking.

Came to realize it WAS the disconnect, but where the QD screws on the to the barb. So I cut off the old one, and replaced the entire QD with barb. No leaks, hooray.

However, im getting a ridiculous amount of foam now. Did I upset the beer gods?
 
Just an update incase anyone ever runs into this... Solved the foaming issue.

The flange at the top of the dip tube was slightly bent. I straightened it out, replaced w/ new o-ring.. and no more foam for the ESB. Cheers!
