Just got filled at Chief Fire Extinguisher on main street in LODI NJ. Five pounder was filled for 16.86 including tax. Pleasant service, filled while I waited. got a pretty sticker and actual tank weight after fill. I had done an exchange for my shiny new tank at hoboken beer and soda, that was 19 bucks for 2.5lb.
If your willing to go to Kearny they charge 11 bucks cash straight up for a 5# tank. They fill while you wait as well. Took about 10 min the second time around.
They Will also do a GMIX tank long as you have a CGA 580 threading.
I just called them, and they don't have beverage grade CO2, though. I would want to be pretty sure there aren't any dangerous impurities in my beer...
All:
There is a HUGE difference in various CO2 QVL's (Quality Verification Levels - there are five).
ISBT (International Society of Beverage Technologists) has CO2 Guidelines for quality - this is what you want. Also CGA G-6.2 QVL I is Beverage Grade CO2 equivalent to ISBT.
"Food Grade" is QVL H. It is technically not Food Grade, it is Food Processing Grade.
Beverage Grade/Quality (ISBT/CGA G-6.2 QVL I) mandates many more impurities be removed that are not even checked in QVL H such as:
Benzene (yes BENZENE), ammonia, phosphine, much lower levels of sulfur and acetaldehyde both of which will affect taste, oil and grease and methanol.
You don't want higher levels of sulfur and acetaldahyde and you sure don't want unchecked benzene levels.
Anyone know of one closer to 08087....PLEASE post or let me know.
This is about the same distance but south if you are ever down that way...
FYI can't get CO2 on a Sunday there...

City Fire Equipment Company 733 Ridgedale Avenue, East Hanover NJ 07936 charged me $37.50 yesterday filling up a #10 tank. That was more than I expected.
Next time try Reisinger Oxygen Services in Roseland. The place is a little hard to find, but their prices are great and they are really nice people. I don't live up there anymore so be sure to pet the dog for me. The address is 113 Harrison Ave Roseland, NJ 07068.

The place on 33 is the only place in Monmouth county where you can get co2. I live near red bank and I have searched for closer.
Title says it all...does anyone know of a place in NJ that will refill a co2 tank (not exchange)?
I'm building a kegerator out of a 15cf chest freezer, and most of my parts arrive on Saturday. I did make one mistake (now that I look back) and ordered a brand new 10lb tank and I know once the fiancee sees it, she won't want a dirty old one in her house instead. After checking around though, it seems most places do exchange-only for tanks..at least the places I called.
I live in Morristown, but since I won't need to fill a 10lb tank very often it doesn't really matter if it's a little bit of a drive.[/QUOT
Dickson sporting goods in rockaway. Or paintball store in kenvil, roxbury nj
Is this true? Would a vendor that deals with Fire (like Adam's Fire in Rockaway NJ) or paintball place (like Paintball Depot in Oxford, NJ) also have the same issue? Thanks.Learned something new today. Welding supply places do not have beverage grade gas. Meaning they actually have oil in them. A beverage place has no oil it's called pure gas.
