Months ago, I complained about inconsistent pours. I would get a decent first beer out of a tap, but when I poured a second beer later, I got way too much foam.
It looks like something is happening in the tap and line after the first beer.
Tonight I poured 4 beers; wheat ale at about 3.2 volumes. First one was perfect. About an inch of foam, which is what I wanted. Second and third beers were too foamy.
I noticed a lot of the foam appeared as soon as I started pouring. As the pour continued, things went as they should.
On the fourth beer, I decided to pour out the first blob of foam that came out. Probably half an ounce of beer if all the bubbles were popped. I got a fine pour after that, so the problem is all in the first second.
I'm using Nukataps without flow control, hooked up to EVAbarrier (short) and Kegland plastic flow control disconnects. I am pouring beers quite a while apart. I don't know what will happen if I pour two beers in quick succession. If I pour beers a day apart, they will both be fine.
