One of the most disappointing things that can happen in craft micro brewery factory besides getting an infected batch of beer, is poor head retention.
We have all had that feeling when we pour our beer and nothing, no foamy head.

So the first thing is sanitary. No gunk, dust, or anything inside of brewing equipment. I would suggest cleaning your brewery equipment and bottles with a brewing cleaner quite often to help keep everything nice.
You also want to make sure you have good bottles and caps. If you are using our PET bottles they do last a long time, but we do recommend replacing the caps every few months depending on how often you are brewing. If you are noticing that your carbonation and head retention are starting to suffer might be time for some new caps.
You also want to make sure that you are using the proper glass for your beer style. There are all different types of glasses out there and they can impact your head retention as well as your aroma.
Another factor that will impact this is the proper pouring of the beer. Tilt the glass at a 45-degree angle and then when the glass is about two-thirds full level the glass.
It is also critical to make sure that you are adding the proper amount of priming sugar to your beer in brewery equipment and that your carbonation and conditioning temperatures are in the ideal range in your fermenter unitank.
