A Lot of Foam

[Mark Gillman]

Just starting to use my BrewFlo and had no problem with the first two kegs.

My third Keg pops a lots of foam and I have disconnected the air pump and turned the flacon clockwise as far as it can go to reduce flow. but it fills my glass full of foam.

Any thoughts.

Total novice here, haven't even used my brewflo yet.  However I remember a few members here talking about disconnecting the air line to de-pressure the bag first, then later adding the air line. 
Separately, I believe not kegging too early was also mentioned in a couple threads, meaning leave it for 24+hrs in "ready to keg mode". 

 

Anyhow, hopefully someone else will step up with experience rather than my random reading around the place here.

Hi Mike A

I have worked it out, looking at your advice and other comments in other posts, I did this to pour a beer without 80% foam.

• Depressurise the keg using the Brew Art Multi Tool, when you do this the liner inflates oddly.
• If you pour a beer once there is no air, the beer will not pour.
• connect the air connector and close lid.
• As the keg inflates or fills with air pour the beer.
• It pours perfectly.

Its a pain in the ass to do this but it is what it is.

The beer that Ian having the issue with is Mountain Range IPA.
