Yes, they're a handy backup unit when the main gas bottle has run out half way through the boil!

Cheers,

Sorry, I meant for c02. It is one of the Air-up Brands. They retail for about $280 and someone has a full system with one of these cylinders for sale.

I'd shop around. My local mykegonlegs distributor sells a brand new steel 6.8kg bottle for $340 (filled) and refills are around $60...no rent, you own the bottle.

Ive got a 2.3 kilo bottle cant remember the price exactly but i think it may of been around $230 and full of gas. These are $22 to refill. Cant say how many kegs it will gas/serve as i had a faulty valve on the bottle and needed to get it swapped to a newer type. Dont think i need anything bigger running only a couple of kegs.

Oh this is a mykegonlegs bottle too.

Cheers
Rob
