Setting up my keezer, I had 2 cornies filled at a local brewpub. I ran my lines. Apparently beer will come out of the keg without even hooking up co2, which hadn't occurred to me.
I ran lines for 2 taps. The keezer is at 48 F. The first line was 7 feet long, I thought that was the culprit so I ran the second one 11.5 feet long. It is 3/16" ID vinyl line. The regulator is set at 14 PSI, which I suspect is a bit high because I intended to set it at 12 PSI.
Both taps are pouring foam after a bit of beer into a pint. Is this because the kegs are new? Interestingly after adding the second, longer line, the first tap is pouring less foam.
We are having people come over for a potluck in about a half hour or so. I hoped to have the beer ready but already said it wouldn't be. It would be a nice surprise if there was a simple fix to this. Otherwise I guess we can just pour growlers and wait for the foam to die down.
