Hi,
Looking for advices.
I have hard time to get good carbonation with my kegged beer. I now have a witbier on tap.
The first pint has always a thicker head and less co2 bubbles in the beer. (probably because of a warm faucet)The second one has little bit more bubbles but I expect to get more bubbles since it's a witbier and I set my regulator to 15psi. (At this pressure for over a month).
I tried to pour a third one tonight, I remove almost all the pressure from the keg and it poured very slowly. This was a test to see if the initial pressure was too high for the length of my lines (10ft). Strangely, this time I had no bubbles at all. So Serving pressure vs line length doesn't seems to be the culprit.
So my system is set at 15psi to get more carbonation than regular Ale, 10ft line length. I've check for leaks and found one 4 weeks ago, now I'm pretty sure there's no leak, I'm still using the same 5# co2 tank. I do not have a tower.
Any idea ?
