Yuengling Beer

[bamachubby]

I put kegs of Magic Hat & Miller Lite and have little to no beer, but when I put in a keg of yuengling I seem to get a lot of foam??? I set my PSI @ 10...is that not enough PSI...any other suggestions???

I believe that at 38F and sea level yuengling should be maintained at 14 psi. I had a keg of it recently and it was great, no foaming problems at 38F and 14psi. I know that for every 2F change, you raise or lower pressure by 1 psi accordingly. i.e. if your keg is at 40F, use 15psi. If at 36F, use 13psi. I know there is a rule for elevation but cannot remember it right off. Don't want to give you bad gouge. Maybe someone else can throw in the elevation rule for ya.

+1 lb for every 2000 ft above sea level. I don't think he'll have to worry about in New Jersey, though.
