I have a keg of cola that I do not want to take up room in my kegerator. I figured I will just dispense in a glass of ice. It is 68 degrees in my basement so I pressurized the keg to 30 PSI. That should put it at 2.3 ish volumes of CO2.
Then of course I lower the pressure to dispense. But it is all foam. Not a drop of liquid.
I am using a picnic faucet (the cheap black plastic faucets) on this keg. And this may be part of the problem. But I am not changing that for practical reasons.
The hose is long between the keg and the faucet, which I have found usually helps a bit for getting less head. There are no kinks in the line.
I know that when cornys were being used for soda they were ran though a cold plate. But that is also impractical to keep ice on a cold plate all the time for the coke I may want once a week. I do have one though.
Has anyone been able to dispense and carbonate room temp beer or soda?
