So long story short. Force carbed my keg yesterday to 30psi...left overnight...came home almost 24 hours after carbing it...regulator still reading 30psi...so I took off the gas connection and bled out the co2...put it the connection back on and set it to 10psi...came back a few hours later, regulator still reading 10 psi, hook my tap up and you know where this is going...nothing. When I set it back to 10psi I did the bubble test and appeared to have no leaks...co2 was just filled the other day...I unhooked the co2, purged the regulator, and hit it back to 10psi...hook it up to the keg...doesn't seem like I'm getting anything...no idea what the hell is going on but now I've got this keg sitting here with no pressure in it so I'm really concerned I'm going to lose the carbonation that I got last night....can't figure out why the co2 would seem to be operating just fine, and the keg appear to be sealed tightly...but I can't get the keg full. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
 
Well I guess I was bound to embarrass myself on here eventually...I had the wrong line hooked up...the one that the shut off valve was off for...

You could have easily made up some story about how your friend mixed things up on you. But now that you've let the cat out of the bag....:smack:
