I have been having carbonation issues with one of my last batches I put in the kegerator. I brewed a Red Lager extract kit from my local brew supply store. Everything during the brewing process went well. I have been experimenting with different forced carbonation methods and this time I put it under 40 psi for 24 hours and then 20 for another 24 hours. After that I turn it down to 8 psi for serving and was getting a decent head but the beer still tasted flat. I then turn it up to about 15 psi and left it for about a week. The beer still tastes flat and has excess foam. It takes several minutes for the foam to settle down. The whole time the kegerator has been set at approximately 35 degrees. Does anyone have any ideas what may be going on here. Thanks.
