Hi all,
Homebrewtalk noob here. I have a jockey box on wheels that I intend to rent out for parties, tailgates, weddings etc.. But I am having trouble getting it to pour without sputtering as soon as I pull the tap. Also, the beer is very foamy. The bubbles are quite big if that info is of any use.
While pouring from the first tap, I was noticing that the stream of beer would be nearly entirely liquid and then all bubbles, and this pattern would continue for as long as the tap was pulled. Retapping with the second tap produced a more consistent stream but very foamy beer.
I believe I can rule out temperature as being an issue. The keg was chilled in ice for at least two hours prior to pouring, and the jockey box was filled with ice also. I poured a few beers through the tap to get it nice and cold too.
Any and all ideas/troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated! Pictures/videos in the link below.
