I recently bought a kegerator conversion kit, and install with smoothly. The kit came with a new CO2 tank, so I got that filled.
I cleaned and sanitized the kegs, fill the keg with CO2 to check if there were any leaks, but did not seem to be any. So I transfer my beer over to the kegs (I had two batches so two kegs), hook up the lines and set it at 8 psi. Things are going fine, but the 3rd day I noticed a significant drop (25%) in the CO2 capacity. I figured that this was because it was filling the tank with CO2 and did not think more of it. Today, I open up the fridge and the CO2 tank is empty. I pull on the release for both kegs, and no CO2 escapes at all (not even a little).
Does anyone have any idea what might have gone wrong? The only thing I can think of is that there is a leak at where the gas line connects to the top of the keg, and while CO2 was pumping into the keg, it was fine, but eventually it started escaping from that leak and drained the tank of everything.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
