Hi guys,

I have a 20lbs CO2 tank and I would like to fill my 5 lbs CO2 tank with it.
I can't find any info on that, is there a way to do it?

Cheers
 
Ideally you would need a siphon tube installed in your larger tank. You can sometimes turn your tank upside to allow the liquid to flow into the other tank, but that doesn't always work, and isn't particularly safe in most cases.

It's also unlikely that you'd get a complete fill on the 5 pound tank using your 20 pounder.
 
This is one of those things where if you have to ask how to do it, you don't understand enough to do it safely.

Like anything else, you gotta learn how to do it.
I'm aware that it will include some safety concern.
