For whatefver reason , I have 10' of 3/16" line . I usually keep beer at 12psi and 35f. It'll be fine , but if I increase the CO2 to say 14psi, over the course of a week, I start getting foam. I suggest 10ft line, and 10 psi. Bleed kegs over the course of a week just to make sure its down to 10psi. THen take it from there. I dont think increasing to 15 psi when you are having foam problems is gonna help anything. Neither is raising the temp. Co2 stays in solution at colder temps. I would also try a cold glass (not from freezer) and just run cool tap water in it briefly, then empty water out. Pour a few ounces of beer in the glass , pour it out. Then try again and fill it up. I always use a new glass. If theirs no foam , then the issue is probably the beer warming in the top of the kegerator lines and film or dirt that may be in the glass. my 2 cents. Good luck.
