[SOLVED] Foamy Pours!

[passedpawn]

I have a beer that I've been really excited about. Put it online in my serving fridge, and foam city. I did a bunch of things to reduce the foam, nothing worked. I was laying in bed and thought about it and wondered if there was a problem with the oring... not exactly. The dip tube flare had a weird kink in it. Gas in the keg headspace was blowing around the oring and entraining into beer. Megafoam.

I happened to have a spare diptube - instantly solved. Woot! Arctic White Ale, it's awesome!

Yup. Anything sketchy under an Out post is gonna make foam.
Bent or split flange, missing or damaged O-ring, I've seen all of that

Cheers!

Sometimes it's a long haul, but this time it was quick! Didn't give up, knocked it out quickly. This guy - he's the king of kegs: Dude Who Doesn't Give Up
