Force carbonating at room temp

[crabjoe]

I put a 10ft line on and poured just a bit of beer to push the starsan out of the new line... And as far as I can tell, it seem this might have solved my foaming issue.. I'm going to let the line cool to fridge temp for an hour or more then pour myself a glass to see how it works out.

Wish me luck!

If you fill 2 glasses is the 2nd glass foam as well?

Yup, it's all foam. It was like the picnic tap was turning it into foam as it comes out. You can't see any liquid come from the faucet. but you know it's liquid going in because the line is clear.

Bottling with a beer gun is finicky business. The keg needs to be like 33F, the bottles need to be similarly cold.

Here's the outcome from switching the line length. Both pics were taken about 20 seconds after the pour. What a difference line length makes!

BTW, the 4ft line was poured at 2 psi. The 10ft line was poured at 10 psi. I'm having a hard time believing how much of a difference the line length can make.

Glad you corrected the problem. Don't feel bad, there are many folks who find the importance of line length difficult to believe.
