OK well now I'm confused.
I was running around 25psi and then ran into trouble with the last quarter of the keg. If I run it any faster i.e. 30-35psi then it is too fast and foams anyway. I think it foams at 30-35psi because when you turn the tap on it shoots out built up pressure and then slows back down to the proper pour rate at 30psi. I can see the beer line from the keg to the jockey box "jump" when I turn the tap on and off at this high pressure. Because the first second or so of the pour just shoots out really fast, it foams up as it hits the cup and the cup is full almost instantly.
Does anyone have this trouble at 30-35psi? That's why I was running happily at 25 until the last little bit went wrong... I'd really like to solve this and Dirtbag your first reply seemed to make sense - I just don't know about the amount of resistance. I did try pouring some left over beer (overcarbonated and warm not through ice) at 15psi to see if it would push it out the coil and it seemed to pour perfectly! So is there any reason why it wouldn't do this when it is fresh beer running through an ice-cold box?
All your help is greatly appreciated!
