I'm going camping in 3 weeks up in NH. There will be no electricity and there will be no access to ice. I have read every post that I can find here regarding jockey boxes and heat and it's sounding as if there's a chance that after a couple days, the pressure required to push the beer through the lines will overcarbonate the beer and cause foam. So my first thought was ok when we're finished drinking for the night I'll reset the keg's pressure down to norm. But that probably won't work because the beer will be warm, thus causing it to go flat. AM I correct? It will be summertime in NH, and I'll be in the mountains so I'm expecting the nights to get pretty cool, as in 50's-60's. I have 4 kegs of cider that will be fine flat so I'm not worried about that. I'm worried about the two sixths of Harpoon IPA that I don't want to ruin!
So what I'm asking is this: Has anyone ever tried using a jockey box over a period of 4 to 5 days with warm kegs and if so, how did it go?
