I just upgraded several parts of my kegerator and for a week or two it was pouring absolutely perfectly. Recently though I've noticed a few air bubbles in the line right at the sanke-d coupler (actually there's a 90-degree stainless steel angled tailpiece) that are causing a little foam when they are evacuated. It doesn't foam initially but after a second when the air gets to the faucet it does.
I have a new taprite regulator (the pressure is at ~12.5 psi), a little less than 10' of Ultra Barrier Silver Beer Hose (3/16 ID x 7/16 OD, 1/8" Wall), and a tower cooler fan. The tower is cold, the pressure is up, maybe I could increase it a little more? Reading, I'm seeing the two causes of air in the line is the line temperature or the pressure not being set high enough. Right now it's keg of the Ballast Point Grapefruit Scuplin IPA... Should by PSI be higher for that?
On a related note, does it matter how the line is hung/stored? I've read a few things but haven't seen anything definitive... Right now it's looped a couple of times and hung around the coupler, draping down the side of the keg a little bit.
Thank you
