WTF!
I rent a VT cylinder from BOC & it costs me just over $150.00 per year. I don't think it holds 22kg gas.
Either you are getting the deal of the decade or I'm getting ripped the hell off. :angry:
you can buy a bottle for $180

The reason 22kg bottles (f size) are so cheap to rent is because not many people have the room to store them or can be bothered lugging something round that big. They are massive! Not sure about other states but with my lhbs cm2 is on the money with that price. Certainly does seem a rip off to rent a 9kg bottle.
hmm might see if I can swap my 9kg for a 22kg. I pay about $12 a month so if its cheaper to rent a 22kg then why not? you pay less per month then you dont have to refill it as much. means I will only have to fill it about every 3 years lol
I don't even have a local home brew shop, just a tobacconist that sells home brew gear & he knows absolute zero about anything All Grain & frankly, he's not one bit interested. I get everything online.
I pay about $15.00 per month for mine & I might look into one of those F size bottles.
Cheers for your help guys, I appreciate it.
Hehe & no, I wasn't going to contaminate the beer with LPG, I was only thinking of using the bottle as a vessel for CO2. But, alas it appears Fire extinguisher is the only other solution. Last year my old man gave me 2x 1kg extinguishers for Xmas, are they OK straight off the truck, or do I need to drain them & fill with CO2?
im renting a 22 kg botttle from supa gas and it costs me $48 a quarter. its 50ish to fill but last the best part of a year.
if the extinguishers are CO2 extinguishers .. then they are fine to use "straight off the truck".
If they aren't CO2 extinguishers, no one will fill them with CO2 anyway.
