I currently have two 5gal corny kegs in a fridge, going through 10ft of 3/16" line, through shanks that pass through the fridge door, to the faucets. The foamy 1st pour happens on all of my beers, but for information sake, I'm currently drinking a pale ale that is set to a serving pressure of 14psi. The 1st pour from the kegerator is 80% foam. All subsequent pours are perfect. If it sits for even 20 minutes, the foamy 1st pour returns. Even after the system has been sitting for a while, I never see visible pockets of CO2 anywhere in the lines.
I know people just recommend to pour a couple ounces, dump it, then proceed to pour your pint, but ideally, I would like to just walk up to the kegerator at any time and get a perfect pour right from the get-go.
Is this possible? Am I expecting too much? Does everyone with a similar setup experience the same problem?
