Unhappy Konig Ludwig Foam Troubles
I just made a fridge conversion and went through 2 sixtels with no problems and no foaming. 1st Keg was a Bud product(Skipjack) just for line/system testing with not too much expense, 2nd was Sam Adams. I just bought my 3rd, Konig Ludwig Weisse...mmmm. Anyway I have a foaming problem. I am at 37-38 degrees and started at 11 psi and have climbed to 14-16 with no joy. Any ideas? Should I go lower on the psi? Thanks in advance.

Weisse beers typically require a greater dispensing psi that traditional ales. Depending on your altitude you may want to have that pushed at upwards of 16-18 psi at that temp. Check with the brewery for the right serving pressure.
