Hi guys - I’m on a drive to Lee my line lengths short as I’m wasting beer in them.

I currently have kegs with 4ft of 3/8 coming out going through a chiller which then goes into a 9ft 3/16 line to the tap… works perfectly…

The new plan was to have the 3/16line 3FT and and the 3/8 2ft

Unfortunately everything is a fobbing mess … is there anyway around it ?
 
You drastically reduced the line resistance and got foaming. No mystery there. As I see it, you have three choices.

1) Add a very small diameter "choke" line. (May not be practical, depending on your connector hardware.)
1) Lengthen a line(s) and/or reduce the inner diameter(s).
2) Use a Flow Control Faucet.
