Brewgas
Anyone else having trouble with Brewgas? I can't get Hambleton Bard in Cornwall and these Brewgas refills tend to leak - which turns them from expensive to really annoyingly expensive!
Re: Brewgas
If these are the same as the Hambleton bard s30 cylinders the key reason for them leaking was using them for more than a seconds blast. The CO2 freezes the pin open. Have a mug of warm water to put the valve into fixes this issue.

Re: Brewgas
Forgot to say... It is cheaper in the long run to buy in bulk with bigger cylinders and a regulator.

Re: Brewgas
Thanks guys.
@Brewedout - The problem seems to be when I only allow out a small amount of gas. I have to give it a good solid squirt to get the cylinder to re-seal. This is the FOURTH one from Brewgas that I've had trouble with, when they had the Hambleton Bard branding I don't recall having a problem.
I'm only using gas to displace the beer, not forced carbonation, so I don't use very much.
@Nashbrew - I'm using plastic barrels with the S30 adapter on top. What would I need at how much does it cost?
