I have had the same issue - I have solved it by flushing the hot water tank (let your hot water faucet run for a long time without the hot water heater turned on) so all antifreeze is removed and then disinfecting the water system with Chlorox. I have found that either antifreeze or "dirty" water will cause the foaming.
I also should note that I now flush all anti-freeze from the system BEFORE opening the water heater bypass valves so no anti-freeze gets into the hot water tank.
