Howdy all,
I recently bought a little keg, 9 litre, with pluto gun and little CO2 bulb charger. This morning in preparation to fill it i was giving it the once over and tried to run cleaning solution out of it as a trial run. Gas and hose ball locks had been lubed and clicked into place firmly, i gave a couple of bursts from the CO2 charger but nothing came out the gun when i pulled the trigger. I tested the pressure relief and sure enough, there was pressure inside. Does anyone have any troubleshooting tips, where should i go from here? Im new to kegs, been a bottle man until now.
As an aside i noticed after a couple of goes of the charger its now empty! I know thats why they cant be used for forced carbonation but i thought theyd have more life in them than that!
Any thoughts appreciated
Cheers
