Hey all! I upgraded my kegerator from plastic cobra taps to the El cheapo rear sealing chrome taps earlier today. The kegerator warmed up and all pours are foam city! When I used the cobra taps I never had this issue. Now the mouth on these taps are a bit wider than cobra taps. At first my pours were insanely fast (regulator was set to 18 psi) so I lowered the psi to 10 psi which slowed the pours back down to normal pour speed. I've used this setup with the cobra taps for over a year with no issues. The draft lines are slowly but surely cooling and it's still foam city. Should I give it over 24 hours to cool down then test a few pours again to see if this may be related to the kegerator warming up today? The kegerator was unplugged with the door open for around 45 min or so. Kegs were still cold but lines got room temp.
Oh forgot my tap lines are around 11-12 ft long and I keep my fridge in the 38-42 f range. Sorry for the information overload but hoping this helps with troubleshooting
