Update: THANK YOU! I replaced the liquid connector with the gas line connector. Left the original gas port without a connection. Then followed your directions on purging, the foam purged out of the gas port. 5 minutes later, I was done. Now I am pouring perfect beer. Thanks again

I'm so thankful for this video. Did my very first forced carbonated beer in a keg and obviously I messed up... Only thing I got into my glass was foam. Followed your instruction using ~12 psi and now it's almost perfect, maybe even slightly undercarbonated after repeating the "blow off" 5 times. But it will recarbonate over time and is drinkable now. You, Sir, deserve a medal for saving 20 liters of beer! Cheers!

Your video was a beer life saver. After 3 years of kegging, I finally had a over carbonated beer on my hands and trying to figure out how to fix the problem was a journey to say the least. After trying several tips from youtubers that didn't help, I happened upon your video. My problem was very similar to what you were showing on your video. I gave it a try and, Voile, It worked beautifully and on the first attempt. Thanks again for what you do. Keep up the great videos. Peace.

@@CityscapeBrewing I just recently moved to pressure fermentation for my last two brews, and it looks like my days of forced pressure carbonation may be over! I was able to source out the parts for my homemade spunding valves between my homebrew shop, a local hardware store, and a big-box hardware store (known for their blue buckets)😆 for a few of the remaining fittings. Along with installing a floating dip tube in the kegs, I ferment/naturally carbonate/dispense right from the same vessel. This might be a great video idea down the road!

thanks for the video. I'm currently dealing with an over carbonated commercial keg. It's driving me crazy. I've followed all the steps to clean the system, and still similar to your first pour. Then I used a picnic tap, still foamy, so it isn't my system. I'm going to try your method, I will reply back with results. Thanks

I'm not sure if this will work with a commercial keg. It depends on if they're dip tube goes all the way down to the bottom or not. This only works when the dip dube from the serving line can go all the way down and pull out the CO2. Another suggestion is to use a longer serving line for the picnic tap... That will give it some resistance and friction and should slow down the beer and not be as foamy

@bryanlane267

@@CityscapeBrewing thanks for the suggestion. The other problem is I can't open the keg, so there would be no place for the foam to be expelled. I'm back to the beginning again.

Yeah, a longer tap line might be your only choice.... You don't want to pump new CO2 in there or else it will get worse. Another choice is to just keep drinking it without it hooked to CO2 at all... But the pressure release by creating more headspace when the beer empties

@@CityscapeBrewing a thought, I swap the gas and serving line connectors on the commercial tap. Push gas down the serving line, and keep the gas line (that is now the serving line) open to let liquid out. My question is will foam/beer be expelled out of the commercial tap via the gas line?

Are you using serving PSI (10-12) during the process to remove excess carbonation?

Sorry. I haven't found that to be the case!

And there is me trying to use this method to quick carbonate my kegs, seems i am making things worse? I Also use a carbonation stone on the end of a flexible line on the Co2 side of a keg to fast carbonate soda water. And this works , so why does this work to un-carbonate an over carbonated beer ?

@CityscapeBrewing

Жыл бұрын

Because the CO2 comes from the bottom of the keg on the dispensing line and the CO2 pulls the smaller bubbles in the beer to decarbonate while you are pulling the pressure relief valve.

Will this work if you have a floating dip tube?

@CityscapeBrewing

Жыл бұрын

No. The CO2 needs to come up through the beer from the bottom, pulling out the carbonation.

loud background music.

Honestly, you went from a nice foamy pour to a flat pour. The one you call perfect , I would reject. 1-1.5 inches of foam is the norm. You also wasted a lot of beer (foam is beer too).

@CityscapeBrewing

Жыл бұрын

When I first poured the beer I had about an inch of beer at the bottom of the glass and the rest was foam. Even if the beer ends up under carbonated, it will recarbonate by sitting at normal serving pressure. I agree you want 1-1.5 inches of head, and it will end up that way even if you let out more carbonation with this process. The point of the video was to show people how to get carbonation out of their beer when it is very over carbonated. Sometimes this is the only way to do it, even if you lose a pint in foam.
