Does anyone know where to get CO2 refill for 5g tank? I used to go to Airgas in Manchester but they denied me saying they aren't selling CO2 because of a shortage.

Anyone know of a spot?

I’d try calling some home brew supply shops and see if they can give you a lead.

Try Granite Industrial Gas in Derry, I think that’s where my Dad has been going

Strange. I thought CO2 levels were at an all time high? That’s what i keep hearing.

In all seriousness though, have you tried Matheson in Manchester? I only deal in bulk, but not sure about small volumes. If i were to think about an unethical life tip, I’d give a donation to a macdonalds, bk, or wendys employee and ask the what they can do to help you. Not recommending doing anything illegal, just thinking they may know other outlets we don’t.

Try Dicks sporting goods, they can refill tanks for paintball, maybe they’d fill a bigger tank?

They don't do that anymore, unfortunately.

They only do smaller tanks.

I think I got mine at a gas supplier when I had one. I think it was Airgas.

Edit: oops re-read the post, sorry OP

Manchester wouldn't. I'm going to give Matheson a call on Tuesday.

Northend Superette on the corner of Elm St and Fir St

Edit: I know you can get CO2 there, it is not a refill station, they just swap out pony bottles.

There used to be a hydroponic supply store on Second St in Manchester that did 20# tank swaps. That’s where I always went when I was brewing regularly. I haven’t fired up the kettle in a couple years unfortunately and I don’t know if the place is still open. 20 pounds lasted me a long time.

I think most places are swap. My wife and I had to swap our cylinder when we did it last.

Yeah, airgas is swap. But they won't sell me CO2. Said they have no idea when they will start selling again.
