tweaking beam length

[luis jure]

dear list,

the output of the following code is shown in the first attached image:

\version "2.17.17"

\score {
    \new Voice \with {
      \remove "Forbid_line_break_engraver"
      \override Beam.breakable = ##t
    }
      
      \relative c'' {
        \repeat unfold 5 { c2. \repeat unfold 2 { c8[ c16] } c8 c2. } }
  \layout { }
}


i find the beams after the break (m. 6) too long, but i don't know how to
modify them. i'd like to get something like in the second image. is there
a property that i could somehow adjust? i tried a couple of searches in
the manual but i couldn't find anything appropriate. 

best,


lj
