U-Haul is my go-to for propane in KC, seems to be the best deal I can find.
Also, check the date on your tank. During my last fill up, the guy pointed out that I have until December to use my tank, because they won't fill up tanks past the expired date. I will have to buy a new one. Apparently they are only good for ten years?
I'm getting about 4 brews from a tank or so (all grain)... I'm motivated to run a natural gas line disconnect somewhere where I can brew with it. Then I need new blichmann burners. That will make SWMBO *really* pissed lolJeffD69 said:I am starting to brew almost every weekend and using a lot of gas. Does anyone know of an inexpensive place to refill propane tanks in the Tampa Bay area of Florida?

For natural gas I highly recommend the G4 burner (g4burner.com) I bought it from bbq guys online. I'm sure the blichmann's are nice but after comparing the btu's 180k vs 72k it was no comparison really.
Considering that propane is currently trading at $0.86 a gallon on the commodities market, your Tractor Supply sure isn't worried about profit.
FYI, the Columbia, SC Tractor Supply store on Killian Road list a propane refill as $13.30 for a 20# tank, so closer to $2.81 a gallon for the 4.72 gallons with 20% vapor space. Maybe it was $8-9 Canadian
$13.30 is still damn good, though. That's $1+ cheaper than the cheapest place I've found in my town.
Ok I'm going to throw this out there cuz I can't find it anywhere on here ...anyone have any clues to whether you can use a forklift propane tank?? Those tanks look pretty beefy and appears to look like its twice the size, is it the same valve connection??? Could it be modified If not?? Where can u get one???

I got to coscto (in Canada) , 0.49$/lb fillups
Since here it's around :rockin: -20C(-4)f this morning took me around 10 pounds to mash + batchsparge and the boil. (with my propane burner)
It took like 35 minutes to boil too.
