Had a similar problem, combustion gases leaking via the head gasket into the coolant, both gas pressure in the coolant as well as heating the coolant, resulting in coolant erupting from the reservoir cap. Initially happened in-frequently, and later happened after 20 minutes of running the car.
So I had the head gasket repaired. During that time no oil found in coolant and no coolant in the oil. Try running in idle with the reservoir cap off, to look for gas bubbles in the coolant. It may take some time to get up to temp.
