Excessive Foam from beer engine

Post by Hawkinspm » Thu Nov 26, 2009 10:34 am

Hi, hope someone can help who has also done this.

I accidentally left the CO2 on at 20psi on a full cornie ( usually hit it with 20psi and leave it). When I am pulling from a beer engine with check valve it is excessively foamy. Being kept at 16 C and pressure was dropped on the keg to around 1 PSI. It is slowly easing as I keep releasing pressure but wondered if there was a way to speed this process up? I don't plan to be serving the beer for another 3 weeks so have time on my side.

Thanks
Paul
