Default 1/8 or 5 gallon keg foam

I have a kegerator and use the small 5 gal kegs. (It's a New York thing) Any way, I can't control the foam! My temp is 36F (per Labatts Blue specs) and I've tried pressures ranging from 15 to 5 PSI. Anyone have good luck with these small kegs???

The keg size shouldn't make a difference. I would double check your temperature with a calibrated thermometer and then adjust it down to 38. Be sure to check the temperature of a glass sitting in the unit overnight as the air temp is inaccurate. Keep the pressure at about 14 lbs and be sure you have about 5' of 3/16" beer line.
