It is currently proving impossible to get my Calor 3.9kg propane bottles refilled.
I'm thinking about buying a larger Calor bottle and decanting gas into the 3.9.
I've read many of the threads on this and all the dire warning, most seem manageable, if you plan set the decanting process up carefully and weigh the receiving bottle as you fill it.
I'd stress that I don't really want to have to do this, but it is becoming a necessity.
No gas no hot food!
The gas locker on the boat is designed for two 3.9kg cylinders and is too small to take the 5kg patio gas cylinders.
I’m thinking of buying a 13kg cylinder as the donor.
Has anyone come across a company who will supply a 13kg to 3.9kg high pressure hose which is pressure tested?
I could make one up from the components, but buying one ready made reduces one of the risks.
