So I bought another used ball lock keg because I've started brewing more than a single batch at a time. I did the usual cleaning, rinsing, checking for gas leaks under pressure, etc as I did with my other kegs before I decided to use them. Everything looked fine.
So I went on and kegged one of my beers and started carbing in the fridge (set and forget). I checked it every day and everything was fine and dandy.
Fifth day in, and when I go and check I notice my fridge has about a cup of beer lying on the bottom of it. There is beer leaking from the bottom of my liquid out post all of a sudden. When I relieved the keg of pressure it stopped leaking.
Any idea what the problem might be and what I can do to fix it? Keep in mind I have almost a full 5 gallons in that corny, and I'd really prefer not bottling. Right now I'm keeping it off the gas (probably gonna lose those 4 days of carbing worth of gas, o well) so as not to waste beer. The sooner I get some help the better, thanks!
