Recently got my first kegerator. I had it all set up and it was working great. I then needed to refill the co2. My girlfriend tried to help and she disconnected the co2 line from the coupler without untapping the keg. So the keg stayed tapped for 5 days with no co2 connected to the coupler. I got the co2 filled and reconnected it to the coupler. I then went to pour and it is 100% foam and comes out with a lot of force. I then lowered the pressure to 5 and still get foam even after a full pint pour of foam. Any ideas what I did?
