Hi everyone
So first attempt at using a pressure barrel, i know its just a budget one but wanted to try it.
I have a barrel tap on it and the tap is very slowly leaking, not at the seal but dripping out of the tap. It was put in last night, no drips this morning when i got up but its dripping now
So i have a few questions,
Is there anything i can do? Ive tried tightening etc but its still dripping.
At the moment Ive laid the barrel on its side, now I guess im still losing gas because if the liquid can get out the gas must be also getting out - but is this ok on its side and just keep topping up with gas till Christmas then put it the right way up a few days before drinking?
Ideally I was hoping it would last till Christmas week - any chance of this?
I guess moving it to bottles is now out of the question?
Shall i just drink it all tonight rather than waste it? (might need a hand as its 23l)
cheers
