I did a keg conversion kit and initially had some of the common issues (beer flowing too fast from tap causing foam, etc.). After a couple of 1/6 barrels and hours reading these forums, I finally got it tweaked and running perfect for a few kegs.
Now, for some reason, when I pour the first pint of the day it is perfect. After that each of the next pours has a spurt of foam at the beginning of the pour. What would cause this spurt of foam at the beginning of a pour.
I'm fairly certain that I am not causing turbulance by slowly opening/closing the tap.
psi 12
air cooled tower
about 20' of 1/4" I.D. line
beer temp in fridge 34 degrees
beer temp at dispense is usually a few degrees warmer
Everything is clean (I clean the system after every 1/6 barrel).
