UPDATE:
No more Foamies for me, a Huge thanks to Tony, who nailed the pour to carb pressure issue, along with other who mentioned it too, I didnd even give it a though.
Second thanks to whoever suggested (maybe tony) that the 1.8 meter of 6mm id line from a keg with a huge spear/coupler setup was not enough restriction in the line to slow it down to a resonable pour rate.
Solution: 3.5 meters of 4mm line, coiled up nice and neat, in a container of water at the rear of the fridge to help with thermal conductivity, a washe with a 4mm id hole at the keg couple to hose fitting instead of a 12mm ID washer.
So far so good, 3 perfect beers, one pour, at 100kpa.
Keg beer rocks.
Next question:
I have a very robust Guiness Clone down ATM, will it keg OK, or should I bottle, store for several months, and enjoy then, I really want that thick creamy head you get on REAL guiness, I had gut loads of it in Ireland years ago and Love it.
help please
