CO2 Gas Cylinders

[Bad_Idea_Beers]

Hi everyone,

First of all apologies for the question as I know it must get asked all the time.

I am looking into building a Keezer and all the parts seem easy enough to obtain and put together apart from the gas!

Finding a CO2 Gas Cylinder in my local area that I can buy so is rent free and that will do re-fills is becoming really annoying. I must have looked everywhere but everything seems to be in the midlands or up north.

I live in Welwyn Garden City and work in Milton Keynes so anywhere in Hertfordshire or near MK would be great.

Does anyone on here know or could they recommend any local companies?

Thanks
Mark

Think you will be in the catchment area for air liquids Swindon 50 mile rad from their depot? Many use them on here and I believe a pub size CO2 cylinder is around £15 there is a link on here somewhere,there you go,hope they are close enough to you

Thanks for the reply and information. Unfortunately I live about 100 miles away so may not be able to get it from them. Worth a call though.

£15 for a cylinder? Where this place I'm in Yorkshire and I have to pay £65 for tank + co2

Ask in pubs they get them at good rates

Thanks everyone. So I emailed air liquids and they deliver to my area! :)

Can not believe how cheap it is. As you said before they quoted £15 ish for delivery of a full 6kg canister no rent, no deposit. When it needs refilling they come out and exchange it for £15! Unbelievable.

So out of interest what depot is delivering and to what area,roughly how many miles?

 

[gl0ckage]

My area is £56 for new customer, getting returning is just £25 for gas no delivery though just collection.

I live near MK and found my closest was an air liquid place called Compton Garden Centre just off M1 at Leagrave. I think about £42 pub size cylinder and deposit. He does loads of pubs and brewers.

Unfortunately the closet to you seems to be Enfield.
Here is a list for the UK http://www.ukaps.org/forum/threads/where-to-get-co2-cannisters-and-refills.4612/

 

[Wilfy]

I've just had a quote for a place near me. £40 deposit, £9.96 for the gas. Seems canny enough to me.

I know this is an old thread, but BIG shout out to Crompton Garden Centre in Luton (aka Gas on the go) who have just provided me (July 2020) with 10 litres of CO2 for the princely sum of 25 quid plus 35 deposit. No rental charge, no contract, didn't even take my details. Tip top!

 

[detonate]

Thanks for necroing this thread @The-Engineer-That-Brews, I was struggling to find a local supplier with delivery. Much appreciated, I'll be giving them a shot!

YW - Fingers crossed they work for you :)
Depending on your location another option to look at might be Edwards Holmes on the Hatfield side of St Albans, who are also AirLiquide agents
