I have two bottles with two micromatic regulators. One has a brass manifold in line ( the other two outlets are usually turned off. ) The lines are the same length. I happen to have them both in the fridge with a Saison in one, a stout in the other. They are both pressurized the same (12) according to the two identical gauges. But one is obviously lower in pressure and the other much higher. Finally I tested by switching their gas lines and the gauges reacted to what I had perceived. One showed gauge showed a much Lower pressure, and the other much higher.
So my question is, is this obviously a problem with my (like new) gauges? Is the manifold affecting anything? Is there a way to test and adjust the gauges? Or do I need to contact the company?
