Co2 tank

[Alex Lawes]

Looking for a 6 or 8kg tank. Have a 2kg here but want to go bigger as I'm force carbing these days. Any leads on good tank suppliers?
Thanks.

I got my 6Kg C02 Cylinder from C02Munster in Cork. Very friendly guy. I think there is a crowd that supply Fire extinguishers that have just been filled with C02 in Bray. I preferred having a proper cylinder

Oh ya big C02 snob, half the countrys HBers have red tanks
Alex, 5kgs for 40 filled (brand new valve) and 10 fill each time, i had a post about it here somewhere now where did I put it :

John, when you say a brand new valve, is that the real mcoy, turnyroundy one, and not the 2-handled FE one?
:-/
EDIT: Alex, you'll get heaps out a 5kg cylinder.

I have mixed gas bottle that came with a job lot a while back. Do any one know of a friendly barman working in a pub that uses these bottles and would swap an empty for a full with the familiar hand shake that I learnt watching "the wire". :

Funny how stuff reads. I saw full, empty, hand, shake, wire. 

Careful now,that speed reading will make you go blind.

Turnyroundy? 2 handled ? all very technical

If you mean does it looks like this then yes it does

whats the 2 handled jobbie is that just a standard extinguisher?

I need a refill of my 8Kg tank, nicknamed "Bismark" as it looks like an old WWII torpedo. Do you think they'll fill it for tenner and like the property tax they'll turn a blind eye to all those extra acres?

Can transport Alex over while I'm at it. Will be going over some day this week.

there is always one

Yes that's the one John 
The 2-handled is the original Fire Ext. handle
That sounds a great deal if it's €25 for 2kg and €40 for 5kg, to include that valve... is that the right price?

[Ciderhead]

Its 40 including a fill and new valve whether its a 2 or a 5Kg tank.

im waiting awhile for doyle and doyle to get those valves in.  seems like there was a big increase in people looking for tanks recently

Go to bray - you'll easily save the petrol money, and more, on a refill.
