This is probably a stupid question, but I'm asking it anyway. First, the background. I just kegged my second batch since buying my first kegging system. I have two corny kegs, a 20 lbs CO2 tank, regulator and related hoses. Seems very slick. With the first batch, I chilled the keg to 38 degrees, cranked the gas to 25 psi and let it sit for two days, shaking often. Then vented off the pressure and reduced to 10 psi. I was thrilled with the carbonation level. It WAS perfect. That was four weeks ago. Now, the keg, which is still half full, dispenses nothing but foam. Now the question: What happened???? Did the 10 psi "dispensing" pressure continue to increase the co2 levels??? (I left the tank connected continuosly and raised the cooler temp to 45 degrees.) Should I have disconnected the tank when not dispensing? Any advice on what to do now? I've tried bleeding off the pressure and reducing the serving pressure to six lbs., but that did not help. Still all foam. Thanks.
