Hi all,
Just bought a used BA kegerator converted for Guinness and I'm having what I'm sure is a silly, noob problem. I've looked far and wide on the interweb and haven't found anything that seems to address my problem.
I'm unable to get the coupler to fully engage on the keg. It fits in and I'm able to rotate it so it locks in but when I try to actually tap it, it won't go down all the way and stay in. The coupler rotates freely (engaging the handle to go up and down when not attempting to tap the keg) but for some reason it won't lock onto the keg.
The frustrating thing is if that I hold the handle down I actually get a good poor - regulator set at 30 psi, minimal foam, and a steady pour that tastes great. But clearly this isn't a solution since I have to hold the coupler handle down while pouring.
I've put a decent amount of pressure on the handle but it just won't seem to go that last little bit to lock. I'm not sure simply pushing down with more pressure is the solution because it almost feels like it won't got any further down. Any thoughts or suggestions? What the heck am I missing here???
Appreciate any replies...thanks.
