Hello everyone,
Just started kegging some soda this week. I just bought a ton of cheap 2-liter bottles at the store, dumped them in the keg and turned the pressure up to 35 psi. It's been there for about 5 days, and the carbonation just isn't quite right. When I pour it, I get a lot of foam, which settles down. However, the soda just doesn't seem all that carbonated. I want a good, sharp carbonation bite. Should I turn the psi up higher? Right now if I use a 9 foot, 3/16th beverage line. That probably accounts for the foam. However, if I use a longer line, will more of the carbonation dissipate by the time it gets to the cup, leaving a 'smoother' carbonation profile? Hopefully this makes sense.
Thanks!
