Hi Everyone,
This question will sound rediculous.
There is no CO2 coming out of my cylinder, is it empty?
I noticed that for the second time in 2 months my no return valve for the CO2 has packed in and there is water in all the pipes, solenoid, right back to the pressure regulator, but as far as I can tell not inside the regulator.
As soon as I noticed this had happened I turned everything off, cleaned out all the pipes, and tried to turn on the co2 again, but got a few bubbles, then it slowed and stopped completely. I read one thread about sticky cylinder valves, and have taken it outside for a quick blast and got nothing either.
So I have had my co2 running for 2 months about one bubble per second for 8 hours a day. It is a 500g cylinder so maybe it has just run out, and it's just a coincidence that is is the same time as the water problem. Does that sound right? It's my first one so I don't know how long they last in general.
Please let me know your thoughts.
