I felt the blower and yes it feels warm, but I would think that too much air passes through the blower for the warm temperature of the blower to really transfer that much heat to the air going to the tower.

I tried measuring the temp of the tower but the thermometer I have is the one from micromatic that is surrounded by water so it wouldnt really fit in the tower without cutting off return airflow. I took it out of the water and measured and I actually got about 45 degrees in the tower, and in the chest it is around 38-40 degrees. I don't know how accurate the tower measurement was.

I would still think 40 degrees in the tower is cold enough to not produce foam. I have more foam on my first pour than on the following pours, but it is certainly not half of a pint glass. With Budweiser set at 11-12psi, I get about 1 inch of foam for the first pint, the following pours probably have about 1/2 inch of head.

I just don't think you are ever going to get the tower to the exact same temp as the chest, it is just not insulated enough.

Some people have said just installing a PC fan in the chest in addition to the blower has helped circulate the air and create a more unified temperature.

Another suggestion is to use a thermometer to find the coldest spot in your chest, and then place the blower there to ensure you get the coldest air going up to the tower, but unless you have a big temperature differential, this probably won't make a difference.
