Hi Guys,
It's proving difficult to find a reasonably priced CO2 around here, so i'm considering using larger cylinders. However, rather than having the cylinder next to the tank i was wondering what my options for keeping it on the other side of the wall would be. It'd be in the outside shed (would the temperature in winter affect the cylinder?), so i'd like to have a hose come through the wall so that i can connect the regulator underneath the tank to allow me to see the gauges from inside (rather than having them attached to the cylinder).
I thought i could use something like this but not sure how well the regulator would fit onto that connection.
My other alternative is to keep the regulator on the cylinder, but it'd be harder for me to tell when it's empty. I do have a bubble counter, but it's usually off by the time i get home.
Anyone got any ideas, or could tell me what they've done with cylinders that aren't near to the tank please?
