Why is my regulator pressure creeping up?

Gas regulators are designed to do precisely that—regulate gas pressure—so it can be cause for concern when you notice your gas pressure "creeping up". Sometimes this happens naturally over time and use, but for new regulators it's more commonly attributed to cold temperatures. If you store your CO2 tank and regulator inside your kegerator, the rubber on the diaphragm can become stiff and pressure adjustments take a few hours to stabilize. We recommend setting your regulator at 2-3 PSI below your desired setting, then wait a few hours for the setting to stabilize. Each time you make an adjustment, wait a few hours before re-adjusting. With some trial and error, you'll see that your new regulator can work just fine at colder temperatures.
