    Dripping Perlick's

    Crusty that's what's buggin me they shouldn't but they do, if it was just one tap I'd think faulty tap, but not both Dane could you help me by removing the beer disconnect from your keg, open the tap to relieve pressure close it and see if it drips, mine do tks Russ

    Dripping Perlick's

    BAH as far as serv pres v CO2 vol not sure, but now I know they need constant pressure I'll leave the gas on and hope the gas bottle doesn't run out while I'm away, seems strange that if you disconnect the gas to get it refilled your taps will drip Russ

    Beer In Co2 Line

    I'm with you Dingo,the only way you can get beer into the gas line is if the level is above the gas dip tube either by over filling or foaming from forced carbing[and not releasing pressure before conecting keg] what level do you fill to, amc? a NRV is good peace of mind if you force carb
