Real simple Stefan, tell them if they don't keep thier beer chilled until time of purchase that you will buy somewhere else. Once you buy keep cold until you get it home, if you have to travel a long way in warm weather, put it in a bucket and ice it down. Once you get it home and in your kegerator let itt sit overnight to allow the keg to cool to the temp of your system before tapping that way your preasure/temp calculations are right on. The point Scott was making is that if you tap your keg right after you put it in and the temp is not the temp you made your calculations for, you will have foam. Most folks would then try to adjust the system to fix it and just compound the problem. Best answer is to be a bit patient and give the keg a chance to cool to the temp it will be held at for the remainder of it's short sweet life.
