How fast should my keg pour from the faucet

[Sjorge3442]

So I finally got a kegerator and dove right into the process.

I charged my keg at 40psi for about 12 hours, then dropped to 30 for about 18 and then let it sit at 12psi for about 12 hours. Obviously I purged between each of those steps.

The pour seems to be pretty good, I can fill a pint in about 15 seconds. Is that normal speed, or should it be a little faster? I'm not upset with the speed, just curious.

If you aren’t complaining about too much foam or not enough carbonation, it is exactly the right speed!

12 mph

I've read 6 seconds per pint, but whatever speed you think is good.

I'll take a slow, foam-free pour over a fast messy foamy one any day.

thanks guys. I figured this was one of those things where if its working you shouldnt worry about it. I'm sure I will figure out how to stabilize everything and get great pours all the time. Already kicked the first keg. Kegs seem to go a little faster than bottles. Probably since I can't judge how much beer is left in the keg, so we just keep drinking.
