why is there so much foam in my draft beer I have a perick keg fridge with two taps?

Answer 1

You can always release the gas from the keg and try a lower PSI. But you shouldn't go below 5 PSI otherwise the beer won't push out of the keg. The proper PSI level all depends on the length of your lines and the any drops and rises where gravity will have an effect on the PSI. Here is a great website I use, which has 2 sets of calculators at the bottom, to help "balance" the kegerator's lines for ideal foam and proper flow rate of beer from the tap: http://kegman.net/tap_info.htm. Perlick faucets only prevent stickness associated with normal faucets becuase of their forward locking design... their foam claim is just a marketing gimick :)

Answer 2

Too much co2 or a new Keg that was just tapped needs to settle down.

Holy crap a woman with a keg and two taps. Wow!! a beer drinkers dream!!

Answer 3

Could be your CO2 pressure is too high, anything over 8 psi is too much. Could also be an over carbonated keg, you can turn off the CO2 and vent the keg at the sanky fitting. Or it could be a temperature issue either too warm or too cold.

Answer 4

Over pumping the tap.

Answer 5

these are all possible reasons, but the most common reason is that your beer isn't cold enough
