I was wondering if anybody can offer suggestions as to why some of my kegs turn out really foamy and others do not. I have a Czech Pilsner on right now that started out foamy, and the tap continues to deposit 1/3-1/2 a pint full of head into the glass.
My method of carbonation is the slow force carbonation method. I begin carbonation and let it sit for 2 weeks before drinking, and this method has proven really successful save for the odd keg. My keezer is set at 34F and my tank regulator is set at 9.5 PSI, which should get me 2.53 PSI in solution according to the charts, a perfect carbonation for a pilsner. However, my beer is turning out way too foamy. I should mention I also have an IPA on tap, hooked up to the same tank and at the same pressure and temp (2.53), and it pours a perfect two finger head.
I have checked the keg and lines for leaks. I have not disturbed it or shaken it. Anyone have suggestions about how this is happening and secondly what I can do to salvage this keg of delicious pilsner?
Thanks.
