Background: I recently moved and have a problem with my first kegged batch. I had a 10 lb CO2 cylinder syphon filled at my new HBS. Filled my first keg and hooked it up.
Problem: Whenever I try to apply CO2, the check valves on my regulators go nuts releasing lots of pressure! Both of them! Both gauges bury the needle!
Question: Does this mean the CO2 tank was over filled? The HBS guy said it was 6 lbs (by weight) in a 10 lb cylinder. He also did not instill me with confidence in his abilities. Something else I’m missing?
