Hey so I've got a keg of Black IPA. I keg conditioned it for a month then I forced carbed it (30 psi, shake, 30 psi, shake, 30 psi, purge, 10.5 psi)
It's set to the same pressure I've been using for other beers without any problems. That pressure is 10.5 psi, based on the Beersmith calculation and trial and error.
Here's the problem: When I go to pour a glass, I get the beer that was in the line first, then as soon as that's gone it goes to straight foam for a short time, then back to good flowing beer. This is causing a pour with 50-75% foam and it's annoing the piss out of me.
I can't figure out what's causing it because I carbed it no differently than any of the batches i've had no issues with in the past. It's not an obstructed dip tube because it eventually pours fine.
I was wondering if anyone could think of a cause?
Thanks!
