    Default New Keg

    I just purchased a Haier Keg Fridge from BestBuy. I have attached the CO2 and Keg and I am getting flow, but it is producing a ton of head. I have the CO2 pressure at about 11 and a keg of Miller Lite Tapped.
    What may be the cause of this foam?

    If it is important, I just turned the fridge on last night and connect cold keg from store last night as well.

    Thanks for the help.

    Capo, when u get a new fridge u should let them cool down to the temp u are looking for,38F for example for 24 hours before putting a keg in there. also, when u bring a new keg home, put it in the cooler for bout 2 hours before hooking up the gas,to let the agitated beer settle down. I caught hell this past week with a foaming problem, and now have the gas down to bout 6psi with coors lite. good luck []

    TopGun, Thanks for the heads up. Foam has been decreasing with time.
