So your system isn't balanced. If you leave it at pouring pressure, your beer will slowly lose carbonation. A balanced system is carbonated the same as the pouring pressure so that gas doesn't go either way. Did you read the article I posted?

So now we've got our numbers dialled in, the keg has been sitting at the correct temperature and pressure for several days, it has reached equilibrium and everything is nice and settled. If we attached a tap directly to the keg and tried to pour a beer with the keg at its equilibrium pressure, we would most likely get a high-pressure jet of beer in our lap. What we need to do is create the right amount of resistance between the keg and the tap to give us a nice controlled rate of pour, without having to change the keg pressure now that we've so carefully set it to the perfect 'equilibrium' level.
