Mine is rated for 4000 psi. You'd definitely want at least 2000 psi...

I use a transfer hose (with vent) from www.powertank.com. No idea if they are still in business. The vent allows you to flush the transfer line and decompress before disconnecting.
 
This hose NewJersey linked to looks like it has a bleeder valve. Is that necessary or preferred, or just a direct hose? I can't imagine wanting to introduce any risk of liquid CO2 getting out.
The bleeder valve is for when you're done filling. You close both tanks and then use the bleeder before removing the hose. It just makes it easier. Been using this hose for somewhere around a dozen refills without issue.
