It has been several years since I last brewed a batch of beer but I started the program again. I am naturally carbonating the beer in the Blue Tap-a-Draft bottles using new (white) lids.. One week into the carbonating process, the lids are starting to drip..I tightened them but even touching them makes them leak more. I have removed one of the lids and used teflon tape on the threads but now it is starting to slowly drip again.. The bottles are on stored their side as I have done in the past for this phase of the brewing process. I don't want to lose this batch of ale.. will it hurt to finish the process with the bottles upright? or should I just let them leak ever so slowly and not worry? There will be more carbonization available when the co2 cartridges are used for dispensing the liquid.. Unless this is resolved with this batch of beer, I will be using some other method for the next batch..
