Kegerator Forum: Beer Line stuck at coupler

Posted:  08 Mar 2021 16:15
Newbie here and I made a newbie mistake that I need to fix.

Hooked up the keg and after fixing an issue with the CO2, I noticed that the keg was leaking at the beer line nut next to the coupler.  I know now that I didn't put the right gasket in.  I have the gasket to fix the issue, but now the nut can't be unscrewed.  The leaked beer has hardened in there.  I had it sitting in a bucket of warm water last night and that didn't seem to fix it.  WD40 would probably get the job done, but I'm guessing that's not a great idea on the beer line.

Thanks, and I look forward to learning from all of you.
