I've recently started fermenting in a 10 gal corny. I hook up a blowoff tube to the gas-out disconnect. Problem is, I'm finding that without head pressure, the lid leaks. The gas is tending to prefer escaping from the rim of the lid, and my blowoff tube isn't getting much activity.
It's probably not a huge deal, but it's kinda annoying. If it's leaking, then it's not a true closed system, which was my whole purpose in fermenting in a keg in the first place.
Any thoughts on how to get a better seal without head pressure?
