  • Not an answer to your question but if you don't get this resolved by your holiday party, you could get a couple beer pitchers and fill that up so your guests don't have to monkey with trying to pour a beer that isn't 80% foam.

  • Thanks, and that might work for people to at least taste the homebrew. But it is very flat after the foam subsides, which I don't know if that is because the foam is from it being overcarbonated and going flat because of the foam, or undercarbonated and the foam is from some other problem.

  • Most likely not fully carbonated. I force carbonate at 40 psi by rocking the keg on its side with my foot for 4 mins, then leaving in kegerator on 35 psi for a couple days, then turn it down to 20 and 10psi, tasting each day. It takes a solid 5 days so it doesn't taste flat while force carbonating.
