So I had a 5 pound tank that a friend gave me to get my keezer built. It lasted through 2 1/6th barrels and 2 1/4 Barrels with me making all kinds of pressure adjustments resulting in wasted CO2. it then made it through force carbing my first home brew, a light ale. I finally had it refilled and after force carbing a hefe and an American wheat it's spent. I know the hefe sucked up quite a bit since I force carbed to about 3.8 volumes but to have the tank die already makes me question if it was filled properly. I had it filled at a local liquor store and it only cost $5, but I expect to get what I pay for.
My question to everyone, do you feel I should have blown through a 5lb tank after force carbing two corny kegs? Or do you think I got ripped off.
