I made a SWMBO beer - nice light wheat beer with some orange peel and coriander. Tastes terrific - but seems to be going flat as soon as I pour. Keg is in fridge 24/7.
(Note, I'm using a picnic tap right now because I'm finalizing my drilling layout and will be moving to the permanent SS setup shortly)
So I'm sure my tap tube length isn't ideal, it does come out too foamy. I've had it on 10 psi for a long time (months) and it has plenty of head when it's poured but tastes flat-ish.
I guess I don't understand how you can carb a beer up at say 15-20 psi and then serve at 10 psi, won't the beer just let the CO2 come out and equalize at 10 psi anyway?
