age old problem with to much head!!! [pics]

Yeah, I never thought I would say that in my life !!!

But heres the issue, I have air forming in the line when it sites for more that 10min ...

You can actually see the little bubbles form and after they get big enough they heard to the highest point in the system...


I have bought smaller 'liquid line', tap, & regulator..

I have also had the same problem with a different keg aswell

oh yeah its 35 degrees in the cooler.....




Also I see I posted it in the wrong spot... Can some one move me to the residential forum ?

I believe that the co2 pressure is probably too low causing the beer to release co2

Well I have had it at 15lbs before and it still causes bubbles in the liquid line.. but now that I think about it, its not as much...


If I raise it back up how long till it takes effect and I can tell if thats it ?


Also what should I have Shiner Bock at 500ft above sea level ?

ok, bumbed it upto 15lbs and it got rid of the bubbles ... But I still get 2/3 of foam when I pour...

Any ideas ?

it is the same if I was to do it with a glass thats 32* as compared to a room temperature one ..

I would verify liquid temp. I have resolved my kegerator issues by replacing the thermostat with a commercial unit (Johnson Controls) and installing a DC blower. My liquid temp inside the box remains at a constant 34 deg at 12 psi. The purr-fect draw every time
