What's up fellow home brewers? The question I have before you today is about beer line length, and what is the accepted norm, or standard length that will best apply to all beer styles.
I have two beers on tap in my fridge kegerator, one is a imperial nut brown ale, and one is a wheat beer. Both are on 15' of coiled up beer line as this is what was recommended by my LHBS as the length needed to best suit most beers. My nut brown pours beautifully, but my wheat beer, quite clearly a fizzier brew foams horribly no mater what serving pressure I set it at. I have been trying multiple serving pressures throughout the 5 gal. batch to try and get it right, to no avail. Is my line too long? Is my beer too fizzy, is this just the way it is? Any advice or suggestions would be much appreciated.
