I was whipping together some great seasonal sodas. A ginger beer, a pumpkin pie soda, and finally a cranberry soda.
I'll happily post about any of those later, but for now I'm in a pickle.
After chilling my brew overnight, I carbonated it with my tank/regulator combo (Not sure what y'all call that on these forums). Then upon opening it, I was graced with an ultra foamy head. So I sat 5 minutes to let it chill, but the head didn't budge. At that point I just took off the top and let the foam snake pour out of the bottle for the next 10 (No exaggerating) minutes.
My ingredients were as follows:
-Water
-Zest ~1 orange
-Juice ~1 orange
-15oz Cranberries
-simple syrup
I don't have any ideas on how to prevent this, since I simmer the berries to create the juice then carbonate that juice. Do I need to add the orange juice after? I also heard that cinnamon oil works as an anti-foaming agent. Are there any other anti-foam agents I can use in this instance?
Any help is appreciated, let me know if you have questions!
