Ive got a 6kg supgas customer owned bottle.

When i got it filled last time the guy weighed it and wrote the weight in marker pen on it for me.

The full wieght is 28.7kg
Thanks for trying...
Obviously a different brand bottle has a different tare weight.
By your figures I have used nearly 9 KG of gas from a bottle with a capacity of 6kg!

Sounds like KK might have their weights wrong or more than one make of bottle. I recently changed my bottle over as the reg had been reading empty for a couple of weeks and Yuri estimated I still had over 2 kilo left. I didn't take the chance and swapped it over anyway.

Just went and weighed mine. Probably won't help but it's 19.15 Kg and has carbed maybe 4 or 5 kegs.
