Just bought a corny and have had mixed reviews on whether to lube the O rings or to just leave them? I have a spare set of O rings just in case but what are your views/experiences, also what do you recommend as getting Keg Lube is not looking good, some use vaseline or KY jelly .....I look forward to your advise.
 
Lube for sure as this keeps the material supple and helps prevent breakdown of the silicone or rubber depending what you use. A lot use vaseline or food grade lube and you only need a fine smear coating.
