Might be the water pump. Remove the serpentine belt, then retest with pressure tester while turning the pump by hand. BTW system pressure does increase after shutting off an engine, so check degas/overflow bottle and overflow tube aren't expunging coolant after shutting engine off after driving. Wouldn't hurt to check the rad cap too.
