Hey guys,
I just picked up a Nitro stout from a local microbrew the other day.
I got a 70/30 beer gas mix set at 30psi, 10' lines and a SS stout faucet.
As soon as I got home I tapped the keg (I usually leave a lager sit over night to settle in the fridge after the car ride or all I get is foam) but figured a stout is a bit different and would be fine tapping right away
The stout was pouring perfectly with a nice creamy cascade and perfect head the moment I tapped the keg and poured. Came home the 2nd night to have a stout and I had no cascade and a sad excuse of a head on the beer and got no idea why. It still seems carbed when drinking it so its definitely not flat and lacking Co2 from the feel of it.
Any ideas whats going on? is there a chance my beer line is too long causing too much reduced pressure at the creamer plate?
The Faucet is rinsed after every use and has no "crud" blocking the plate.
TYIA
