I'm new to Nitro. On my second keg. In both beers, the head is thicker than in the classic Guinness pour. It has what looks like the right density and thickness at the bottom, but then on top of that is a somewhat 'looser' layer. Picture is below. It's not a big issue but would love to have it perfect.
Thinking it may be a big over carbonated, I turned the pressure down a couple/few PSI. The McDantin calculator said I should have this one at 35 psi, which is what I started at. Since then I've turned it down to 32 (maybe 4 or 5 days ago). That didn't seem to make a difference.
I use 75%N2/25%CO2
Any thoughts?
Here's the link so you can see what that calculator takes into account.
