Hi Folks,

I have 20lts of Weissbier in a keg for the last 2 weeks. Was wondering why there was very little carbonation, no head and little or no pressure when pouring. I tried to pressurize the keg with CO2 charge and found my pressure cap was leaking and on further investigation discovered that the cap seal was twisted, is now useless and needs replacing.

Heres my question:
If I get a new seal and resolve the leak issue could I re-prime the batch in the keg? Or even could I now bottle the lot and again reprime in bottles?
Or is the batch gone?

Thanks for all any advice in advance,
Scobs

You should be able to re-prime the beer in the keg once you sort out the sealing issue.
