Good evening all,
I'm hoping someone can give me a clue as to a problem I've encountered tonight.
After my CO2 canister ran out over the weekend, I've been trying to refit the same canister now full of CO2. However, when I turn on the gas, the regulator just blast CO2 out of the pressure relief valve. I note that the serving pressure dial instantly max's out whilst doing it.
When I quickly turn off the gas, the serving pressure dial remains in the high pressure position until I purge it.
Is my regulator faulty, or have I adjusted something incorrectly? The regulator is only a few months old from KegKingdom so I'm hoping it's not that (although presumably there is some sort of warranty?). I'm also wondering whether some trap in the pipe after the regulator could be causing the problem as I used a series of John Guest fittings into the fridge, and I have moved a few things whilst I changed the canister.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Chris
