I recently decided to rebuild all my keezer serving equipment (beer lines, co2 lines, regulators... pretty much everything). I decided to give BevSeal 3/16" beer line a try. I ended up making things a lot worse than they were...
I've read that people like anything from about 6' up to about 20' for their BevSeal line length. So I tried 6'... I end up with a fairly fast pour but it comes out entirely as foam. So I tried 12'. Still all foam, but now it takes 30 seconds or so to fill a pint. I'm serving from kegs where the center is about 20" below the faucet. I keep the keezer at 39F and the PSI on the keg I'm testing with is 10. The keg may not be quite equalized WRT the co2 pressure, but it's close.
Using my old beer line, I don't get foam -- but I also don't get an ideal pour.
My intention was to make a lot of beer lines at various lengths so that I could pick the appropriate length for a given beer.
So I could take another stab at a line between 6' and 12' (say, 9') but I don't want to keep chopping up my big coil of line with a bunch of small lines. And I also have a feeling that my problem with the foaming may not have to do with line length.
Any ideas?
