Bottle leaking air

Just filled my bottle to 200 bar. Turned the air release knob on the dive bottle and it released constant air as opposed to the quick loud hiss I usually get. Released the buddy bottle and it just leaked air out of the end until depleted. Normal problem? easy fix?

Yes I was asking is this a common problem and is it an easy fix?

If it an Old style ball-baearing valve...
I quick blast of air when filling can help clear it.
If it is the New style black Acetal valve, they are less prone to leaking..
But may need a new acetal valve piece machined.
But this Why the all bottles came with an aluminum cap, seal it while not installed on your Rapid
