Hey guys, so I have a diy co2 system with yeast, the other day I decided to try to make the system a little bit more intricate and bought a simple needle valve for it, the idea being that I close off the system, let it build pressure, release this pressure over the course of the day, then close it again at night.
The issue I bumped into is when using the standard airline T-valves, I just checked it and the two that I have are leaking right at the connection to the tubing, thus preventing the pressurization of the system.
Does anyone have an experience when fixing this problem? My first thought is to simply rub petroleum jelly or some other form of grease around the fitting before putting the tube on it.
