Alas, my refrigerator-turned-keggerator is old and cranky, and rarely goes below 50F. This was fine when it was being used as a fermentation fridge, but now that it's a keggerator it means that in order to achieve 2.5vol I need to set the thing at 18-20PSI
Well it seems that at that pressure, even with a 10' line, I get mostly foam in the glass. It also seems that in addition to foam, I get flat-ish, under-carbonated beer.
And so the question is: Am I correct in blaming the warm temps and high pressure? If I were able to get the beer to, say 40F, would the situation improve?
Cheers
