So...I used all the various keg balancing equations for my setup and they all pointed to lines about 5-6 feet long. So I made 6 ea 6 foot runs (mistake)
When I hooked up everything and gassed to 12 psi, just kept getting foam. Dropped to 10 psi and still foam.
So decided to 'lengthen' a few lines to test. Beer line being pretty pricey, I don't want to scrap all my 6 foot lengths and was hoping to simply 'splice' another 4 feet to each line.
Bought some SS barbed couplers from mcmaster and added 4 feet to one of the 6 foot beer lines. 10 feet total. Still getting about 1/3 glass foam on each pour, better...but still not 100% happy.
Are my SS splices the problem, in other words--lengthening beer line a bad idea? Should I just bite the bullet and get all new 10 foot lengths? Will the results be any better?
