When I disconnect the out quick disconnect from the keg there is a small amount of beer that comes out and drips down the keg. It's only a few drops but I was wondering if this might be stopped by replacing the poppits or if thats normal. It occurs in all 3 kegs so I'd think thats normal. I thought I'd ask anyway since the only things replaced on the kegs have been the o-rings.

Likewise....I always get a little bit that dribbles down the keg when I take off a disconnect.
I attribute it to a little bit of beer in the disconnect itself as well as the little bit of time the poppet is open while the 'spear' in the disconnect keeps it open while you pull it off.

normal. wipe it off, and if any more beer pools up there, then think about a new poppet
