My first keg is getting lighter and I fear nearly empty.
I've been experimenting with the temp to get it warmer as the taste is too bitter the colder it is. Well, I started getting serious foaming with my 5' long lines though I ran through the (balancing) numbers and I should only need ~4' long lines.
Oh, the irony, the beer is tasting so much better despite the foaming and it's near the end . I'm also getting a fair amount of sediment, I think hop residue though it does not bother me.
When the temp was colder no foaming. Slightly warmer I'm getting 1/2 beer, 1/2 foam in a 1pt glass. Does the keg start to foam when it gets near empty or is it due to temp and/or beer line length?
