Anyone know of the best places to get a Co2 tank refilled? I just got a brand new empty 5lb co2 tank so I don't want to do the tank exchange and airgas said it would take 4-5 days to fill the tank. Not sure if that is my only option or if there are other places that will do it quicker. Beer nut said they only do a tank swap.

I looked into industrial grade a little bit but am uncertain if that is a bad idea. From what I have read Food Grade and Industrial are 99% Co2 but you have to be careful what the remaining 1% is made up of so I am attempting the food grade route.

This is for my CA Reactor for those that are curious.

Thanks.

I go to the beer nut and universal cylinder, but they are both tank swaps.

Universal Cylinder is actually my runner up. They do tank refills on Tues/Thurs. So I could drop it off on a monday and pick it up on Wed.

Fizz and foam. Come to you and refill. I believe a 5lb bottle is 20 or 25 I have had him out 3 times great service and cost
