First Kegging; Question about Temporary Picnic Faucet Set-up

5’ line

Looks like flat beer. I’ll pour right off the post with about 5 psi on a traveling keg. 10’ line that’s just crazy. What the heck do you do with the snake? You guys are using to much pressure. I’m with sneezes once the beer is carbonated I pull the gas and just give it a shot as needed. You don’t need alot of pressure to pour a beer.

Lol. the snake is coiled with a bread tie…
If I wasn’t force carbing a keg all the time, I would likely use less pressure obviously. BUT with my system I initially tried the 5’ line that came with the starter kit and the beer came rocketing out of the picnic tap and knocked all the co2 out of solution, and my beer looked flat like the picture above. My wife would try a sip and pronounce it “flat” or “still flat” and I would head back to the garage, crestfallen…

Now with my setup, there is bubbly effervescent tasty beer, alive with carbonation, and the wife is happy! I can carb and serve without jacking around kegs or settings and there is peace in the valley…:wink:
