Hello, i am having trouble getting my keg system properly balanced. Every glass is 90% foam. I am working with a commercial keg of sam adams cold snap. After each pour, a bunch of bubbles build up above the coupler. Eventually the bubbles go away and i am left with a void of 5-6 inches in the beer line. Once the happens, i get a burst of foam on the next pour. I have attached a picture to help show what i mean.
I have tried the following...
re tightened all connections
used soap and water to make sure no leaks
both increased and decreased the pressure giving a few days in between
bleed the co2 from keg and repressurized. During this process i shook the keg to help release all gas. During this process when pulling pressure relief on coupler foam came out in between keg seal and coupler
Some background info...
kegerator is beverage air bm23
Tower is cooled
beer temp is 38 degrees measured on second pour
beer line is 5'
beer line and connections are all new
co2 regulator is older
keg coupler is older
Not sure what to try next. Is it possible the coupler is bad? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!
