I've spent the better part of the day reading thread after thread, and I'm wondering if the resistor mod would fix my temperature/foam problem.

Got it!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------Well, I soldered the reistor just like the photo showed...It worked great!!!!
I set the digital temp on the front of the danby to 39 last night...woke up this morning and the t-stat I had in the fridge said the ambient temp was 33degrees...poured a glass ( a lot less foam on the first pull only about 2 inches) and stuck my liquid thermometer in it, read @ 36 degrees! PERFECT. I didn't add the fan or pvc pipe or anything.
Soldering Iron: 7.99 @ radio shack
Pack of 5 33k ohm reistors: .99 cents
10 Mintues to shave the plastic off the wires and solder the ends together
2" of electrical tape: free
Ice cold Fat Tire with .5 inch head....
PRICELESS
Couldn't have done it without all your tinkering and experiences that have been logged here.
Thanks agian!!

Would this likely by my first step in lessening my foam? Or would installing a Brewers Edge Controller II help more?
What exactly does the resistor accomplish?
I'm not really concerned with putting some money into it. I'm more concerned with ease of installation as I'm far from a "handyman".
