First time kegerator setup. Dual pulls, Started with putting 3 sets of 1/6 kegs in through box. Ran around 10lbs co2 and all worked fine through all 3 sets mixed beers over several months.
Put in my first 1/2 barrel keg, coors light. Ran about 1/4-1/3 of the barrel fine. Then I had a weird co2 spike. Regulator malfunction, I got a little beer and lots of foam with a lot of pressure. I was doing research and even called a keg company, but I thought the co2 bleed was the one on the bottle (collective nub).
I couldn't get it to lower pressure, I turned off the co2 and was trying to bleed down just from the tap. After more research I realized to bleed the keg at the coupler. So I did that. Now after all that high foam bleeding I have by weight about 30lbs of beer in the keg. I checked the check ball in the coupler, but when I add pressure now I just get co2 and no beer no foam, like the keg is empty. Lines are empty. Did I screw the pooch here, wth am I doing wrong?
