Hi there!
I recently started to keg, when I bought the equipment I figured it would be easier to have a quick disconnect with flow control (Product link) than having 10,000 ft of tubing in the kegerator.
I wanted to start with something simple and I made hop water. Then I started to run into foaming issues, the tap just pours foam and it does it really slowly.
Video below or link there: Video
I did some troubleshooting:
- took the keg out
- put another flow control QD on it without any tubing and same problem
- I replaced it with a standard QD without flow control and I get loads of pressure and pretty much no foam
The flow control is opened as much as it can, not sure why I get no pressure. No clue regarding the foam, design flaw?
Am I using those QDs wrong somehow? Or did I just waste money on those fancy QDs?
Thanks!
