I had a foam issue a few year back and it was a gas tub-diptube oring that was letting air in. also check that your clamps are all tight and there is no air leaks on the hoses

I had foaming with one keg my setup... but I think it was overcarbed. I floated the keg before solving the problem!

It feels like I'm starting over again. I hate having to sample all this beer to get the system balanced
