I'm sure this is an old mystery, but I am kegging my second batch and when I set my psi to 9 and walk away, after a while it jumps to almost 50 psi. To be clear about this, I set my psi to 9, then hooked up the corny keg. I assumed by setting the volume first, it would be "set". I had this problem with my first keg and never really figured out wtf was going on. It eventually settled down and held at 9 (after almost a full week), but I never could figure out why.
I have checked for leaks in the CO2 lines and cannot find any (using a spray bottle of starsan) and the keg is secure. Also, the CO2 bottle is in the fridge with the keg.
What the hell am I doing wrong? Is it just a cheap regulator? What am I missing?
