  • Should I be putting an O-ring in the Nitrogen to CO2 Regulator Adapter?

    I posted a while ago about about my kegerator conversion to dispense Guinness. I had a leak, refilled my Nitrogen blend, and hooked up only the CO2 Regulator, Nitrogen to CO2 adapter, and my Nitrogen tank.

    I didn't connect any gas lines.

    I let it sit over a couple nights saw that the regulator read it lost a small portion of the gas. Approx 1/12, still essentially full.

    Then after looking at all Nitrogen regulators, they all have an O-ring at the end of the stem, but all the Regulator adapters do not. Could this be the source of the small leak? Would plumbers tape serve as a remedy? Is there a specific O-ring for these adapters?

    Here is the product I have.
