it IS with a Corny Keg, I prob should have given more information. Cornelius keg with water at about 37psi and about 20 feet of beverage line. I checked the dip tube and saw no holes. The O-ring also appeared fine. I don't like the way it grinds however when I tighten the valve back. I can...

Quick background, I wanted to keg soda, and I eventually decided I wanted more than one soda available, so I decided to just keg and carbonate water to dispense out of the tap into a glass of soda syrup of my choice. Been working great for about a year and a half. I regularly clean everything...

Quick update. Got 50' of tubing in today. I have been bleeding off CO2 for the past two days in the keg. Turned the gas back on about an hour ago and set it to 25psi and hooked up 31' of line to my picnic faucet. First couple of pours were spotty, but now, I've gotten 3 perfect pours in a...

Thermometer is still right at 32 degrees. 32.2 to be exact. So, new plan. I'm going to vent all the gas for a couple days, and raise the temp to 37 degrees. Then recarb the soda that's left in the keg at 25psi and see how that goes.

Yeah, I don't really have a choice at the moment as far as the picnic tap goes. But I do keep the fridge right at 32f. But liquids do not freeze. I have a glass of water with a thermometer in it to monitor temperatures. Is it possible that it is still too cold to dispense soda without it...

Yeah, pretty much. I do like my soda to have a nice carbonated bite to it. But even if I lower the pressure to 20 and vent the head gas, it still dispenses as foam. If I pop the top of the keg and ladle some soda out and taste it, it's perfect. I just need to figure out how to get it out via...

Yeah, so the flow control compensator didn't work at all. All that comes out now is pure foam, almost the consistency of an icee drink at a movie theater. My last resort is to bite the bullet and order about 40 feet of line and hope that works out. Don't know what else to try if it doesn't.

Well, rather than order more line and play with the lengths on that, I ordered this flow control mechanism https://www.morebeer.com/products/cm-becker-line-flow-control-compensator.html I am hoping I can put that on my existing line and have that solve both my issues of foam/short beer...

So, I wanted to get into having my own sodas on tap, specifically Sprechers Cream Soda and Big Red, so I took the plunge and purchased this keg kit from Beverage Elements...
