Generally I am able to find most my questions answered on here with ease, but this one has me stumped..
My current set up is two kegs hooked up to a split gas line with one regulator. I generally brew the same styles so the carbonation levels are usually the same for both beers I have tapped. I had a wheat and BierMuncher's Cream of Three Crops on tap. Both were on gas for 3+ weeks at the same levels (10-12 PSI). The wheat came out nicely carbonated while the C3C was noticeably under-carbonated.
The wheat is ~ 5# 2-row, 4# white wheat, .5# oats
Both are poured via Perlick 630ss faucets. The only difference is the wheat had a beer line of 5 feet, while the C3C had a line of 10 feet.
Question - Could the beer line lengths make a difference in the carbonation levels? Or would the styles just need that much of a difference in PSI? Or is this just in my head?
Any help is much appreciated!
