OK, the last few pints of any corny are THE BEST. How can we make all the pints taste like the last one? I've seen some floating keg inlet, I've cold crashed for way beyond hop persistence, etc. Anyone else see this phenomenon?

OK, this is a new (and totally odd) condition. I have a standard keggerator. It is a black box with the chrome top rails that was originally for a full keg. I've switched out the tower and have 3 taps on it, 2 full size Corny's and a halfsy (3 gal) keg I keep on nitro in the back. This has...
