Hey everyone.
I know that posts like this are dime a dozen but I really would appreciate any advice on my issue. I have a keg of Fat Tire that I just can't get to stop foaming.
First off my setup:
-5 feet of 3/16'' of vinyl tubing.
-tower tap with copper tubing going a foot into the kegerator to try to ensure equal cooling
-kegerator set at 37 degrees and 12psi
So the first pour is almost entirely foam. The second pour is usually regular, but if I wait 5 minutes until the next pour I'll get the foam again.
I've messed around with the psi a bunch and the only time I've gotten it with minimal foam is at a 6psi but the beer tasted a little flat after a while.
I realize it sounds like a tower cooling issue, but I honestly think its something else. How low of a psi can I use without it going flat? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Also- I can see bubbles in the tubing right outside of the keg before it goes up the tower.
