Last time you checked your gas connections?

Last night I went down to the kegerator to get a nice refreshing home brew off the tap. Something didn't seem right about the pour so I checked the co2 pressure. To my surprise, my 10 lb tank was empty! This tank was on its 5th keg and at 10 lbs there so be no reason why it would be empty already.

I went down tonight and found I had a leak in the tube going to my manifold from the regulator. This may have been the first time I checked the gas lines. I check the beer lines when I change out kegs, but never the gas lines (this was only the 5th keg I've ever had on tap)

So this is you PSA for the day, check your gas lines and make sure everything is tight and sealed.
