I've recently been messing around with making some homebrew seltzer since that's what my family likes to drink but I can't seem to get a non-foamy pour from it. The first thing I read was that I needed a longer line so I took the stock 4 foot-ish 1/4" line, cut it in half and spliced in 30' of 3/16" tubing using these quick disconnects. Beer & Gas Quick Connect - In-Line Set (With Shut-Off) | MoreBeer The seltzer still gushes out and is really foamy so I figured that it must be something with the quick disconnects that's agitating the beer so as an experiment I took that 30' length of tubing, took off the inline QDs and put a picnic tap and a liquid ball lock QD on it so I can go straight from the keg to the picnic tap. Still super foamy. The foam goes down really quickly so it's not impossible to deal with in this state but since I'm at home all day and I like tinkering I figure I'll see if I make the tap system a little more user friendly.
The seltzer is served at 30psi, plugging all the numbers into this calculator should indicate that I've got the right length of tubing, is there something that I'm missing here that could be leading to all the foaming?
