New to kegging.
Have a fridge set up with 3 taps. When I bought the kegerator it had 5 foot lines. Had the fridge set around 35 degrees. Put the regulator on 12 and left it for 2 weeks on my first 2 batches of beer. Lots of foam.
I have since turned the fridge up to 40 degrees, changed to 12 foot lines. I am still getting over about 60% foam out of the two beer kegs I put on the gas at the same time. Even with the regulator all the way down to nothing still get fast foamy pours.
The cider keg that went on later after the temps were up and lines were longer seems fine right now after 2 weeks on the gas.
I've released pressure a few times. I've put the little spiral inserts in one of the two kegs. Nothing has helped.
So what's next? Do I open the kegs, stir to get as much co2 out as possible and start over? Am I doomed to finishing a foamy keg and hoping the 2nd batches are better?
