I wish I had ignored his advice, but unfortunately I did not. I unhooked the co2, purged the co2 from the keg, and hooked back up at 5PSI. Waited about 45 mins between each attempt at pouring and subsequent adjustment (of 1PSI) to get back to 10ish, but I'm pretty sure this just made it worse...
Yeah the pour rate seems to be OK now. It was pouring very slowly the second day I hooked it up, but there was no foam. Now it's the opposite and all foam which seems to be coming from the tap.
Still confused on why after re-pressurizing at 10PSI and bringing up the temp (it was around 34 and...
thanks for the input - good ideas to consider as I get into brewing my own beer.
Just picked up the new beer line from the local home brew store. I spoke to the owner a bit and he suggested that before changing the line, I should remove the keg from c02, let out the co2 from the keg and start...
Ok I will adjust the beer line and get back to everyone. Since I initially carbed at 12PSI and I am now at 10PSI - is 1 week the time it takes to adjust?
Also, anyone have a link to a good "how-to" on adjusting beer length...this is new to me.
Cheers
Thanks for the quick reply everyone. Yeah I figured that the line length might be the culprit. It's basically the only variable I have not adjusted for yet. My ideal PSI is 9, so per the formula my length is 2.67ft.
L = (PSI -1) / 3
L = (9-1)/3 = 2.67
I think I'm inclined to start long and...
Reaching out to all ye beer lovers for help - I purchased a Nostalgic Electric KRS-2100 kegerator in the hopes of beginning to home-brew in the near future. From what I read the modification required to fit corny kegs is minimal and cheap. So first things first, let's try a regular keg and...
