Hi,
I think I may have made a mistake.
I'm trying to keg beer for the first time. It's a lager. I did what the guy at the LHBS told me to do.
1. Sanitize, fill, and seal the keg.
2. Put the gas on the out.
3. Set psi to 50.
4. Lay on side and shake for 10-15 mins.
5. Let co2 out of headspace.
6. Set to 12psi.
7. Enjoy
I did this and the first beer shot out and filled the chases with foam. I let it sit for an hour or so and I get the same thing.
What am I doing wrong? I have company coming over in a bit and I promised homebrew! Can I rescue this in time? Did I ruin the batch? Did I over carb?
Thanks in advance!
