Too much head?

[SocalNat]

Sorry, I don't have a better way to ask. Is there such thing as too much head? My last 2 brews developed great head with lacing even when the glass was empty. When poured into a cold glass the head seems as thick as egg whites whipped to light peaks.

Too much priming sugar? Definitely maybe when foam is escaping.

I'd take excessive head over no head any day. (Hurrr)

One of my recent batches pours a huge head (3/4 glass) if I'm not gentle on the pour, but the beer hasn't suffered in any way. Guess I was just a little overzealous with the priming sugar.

I don't think there is such a thing

I had the same experience with a couple of batches and had the same thought of egg white/stiff peaks. I did a kit brew a couple of times that used LME and steeping grains. Both the LME and the steeping grains had a bunch of cara-pils in them. I think that's the culprit.
