I kegged a hefeweizen and set the CO2 to 13 lbs and let it sit for 3 weeks in the keggerator at 35 degrees. From everything I've read, this should be near perfect as far as carbonation goes but, to me, it tastes flat. I pumped up the CO2 to 15 lbs and got mostly foam (but with better carb to my taste) so I lowered it back to 13 and I still get foam, so I'm wondering if I over carb'ed even though it tastes flat to me again. Grrrr....
So now I am wondering, are some types of beers more carbonated than others? I seem to remember another commercial hef beer that was kind of flat to me but I've also had one that was well carb'ed.
