I made a pineapple pale ale and when I went to keg it I jammed 2.4lbs of fresh crush pineapple (it was contained in a paint strainer bag) into the keg and let it sit in there for 10 days. Had the keg at 12-14psi for those 10 days. After the 10 days I pulled out the pineapple, got the keg back up to 14psi gave a pour and it was flat. I decided to up the psi to 20 and let it sit for another 7 days. Tried it again and its still flat, it just pours out faster now.
Anyone have any ideas on this? Could the fresh fruit somehow cause the beer to not carb? All my other kegs are at 14psi and are carbed. I'm using 10 feet of beer line on all of the kegs.
