So I got a kegerator recently and I've currently got a 1/2 barrel of sierra nevada harvest in it (i'm getting ready to do my first corny keg with some xmas beer).
I've got psi set to about 8.5, and the temperature depending on where I put the thermometer in the kegerator ranges from 36 at the bottom, to 42 at the very top with about 4.5 feet of 3/16" line.
So the problem is that for the first beer that i pour, it is very foamy and the tap handle is VERY stiff and difficult to open and close. After the first beer it works well the rest of the night.
Any tips or ideas to help resolve this?
Thanks!
Joe
