Hey all,
After hours of research I've given up. I can't get this beer to pour properly.
While I work on my collar and get some capital for some taps I'm just running a single keg. But I can't get the damned thing to pour anything but foam.
Using a Micromatic gauge, and 5mm ID flexmaster lines with a picnic tap. Originally had the picnic tap on a curly hose but had foam there too so with some line I had, tried to get a longer line going. Using the excel document on the Wiki with a few settings, but I had one for 1.7m of line @ 2.4CO2 volume - set the reg for 68kpa and the fridge for 3 degrees.
The result? Opening the tap and it's like turning on niagra falls - and foam everywhere.
I've just about given up - is it just impossible to balance a picnic tap? I really don't want to have to vent the gas just to pour the bloody thing.
