I think your biggest problem is that the system had no water in it, just coolant.
The coolant is NOT as good a heat transfer agent as water, and the additives that make it
foam are also meant to be diluted with water.
Next time I'd suggest filling it with 50/50 antifreeze and water and forget the antifoam.
You should not need it!
