I am new to kegging, and I have a huge foam problem....
I bought a starter kit from homebrew-supplies.ca, it came with a dual tap tower, two kegs, co2 tank, regulators, and the rest of the bits and pieces...
I have on one tap a lager that I made from a brewhouse kit, and on the other a root beer I made from an extract... The root beer has no problems, but the beer on the other tap has nothing but foam... I have tried reducing the dispense pressures, and tried from 2 to 12 psi. The dispensing hose come attached to the tower and is about 5 1/2 ft long. The guy I bought it from says I shouldn't have any problems with it...
I thought it may be overcarbed (carbinated by shaking) so I have released the pressure from the tank a couple times a day and it is now almost flat when dispensed, but I still get a pile of foam.
Any suggestions?
