I made my brew & after fermentation was complete I let it remain in my conical as I've always done in the past to allow it to clear. Transferred to my keg after a month and tapped it after about 2 months. I usually allow it to self carbonate with no issues.
This time; however, when I tapped it, nothing but foam came out which never happened before. I let it sit for another couple days and tried to tap again, and nothing but foam still. When I opened the keg, it was like a volcanoe with foam oozing out to the side of the keg & wouldn't stop.
Does anyone know why this is happening? The only difference, this time, is I'm using well water which is very hard (about 1236 ppm) where before I was using city water.
This is the same recipe I've been making over the last cple yrs but this is the 1st time I've ever had this issue. I'm thinking of just putting the keg in frig to inactivate the yeast, if this is the issue.
