It's not a matter of getting what you paid for, it's a matter of finding a place that fills it up right. They should put some co2 in it, and then vent it off to cool off the tank for a proper fill.
They know how to fill a tank properly, because they're usually filling paint ball co2 tanks. A paintball co2 tank lasts xxx number of shots when full, and the people who play paintball rely on their tanks being filled properly to know how much co2 they have left based on how many paintballs they've used.
When I played paintball, I knew how many shots my 20oz co2 tank lasted. So in the middle of the day, you knew when you had to get your tank filled so you didn't run out in the middle of the next game. The rule of thumb is. If you have an accurate scale at home, you can tell if you're getting a proper fill by weighing the tank. The tare weight empty weight of the tank should be stamped on the tank somewhere.
If you feel the weight is off, I would take it up with whomever filled it if you think it's worth it. I hooked up my first keg this past week and the co2 lasted for 3 days.
I checked it the 4th morning morning and it was completely gone. Well obviously I guess I had a leak. Got co2 refilled and now drinking some pretty flat beer but don't want to waste the rest of the keg. I had hose clamps on the co2 hose on each end just the kind you get at home depot. I have now really tightened them down and am hoping that will be the answer.
My questions is, should I be using a special kind of hose clamp made for gas hoses? I'm new here so ay help is greatly appreciated. Just reading through this board has already helped a ton. I have cheap plastic hose clamps and have no leak issues. Forums Search forums. Members Current visitors. About Us. Log in Register. Search titles only. Search Advanced search…. Search forums.
