Just wondering if anyone can tell me what sort of stuff I would need to run a double burner with a grill ? I don’t have a clue about regulators etc just been told I would need to buy hose/regulator/gas bottle and that’s it ? Would I use a certain type of gas? How would I connect it all up safely , and would it be best to disconnect once the food is cooked so there would be no leaks etc? Also best place(s) to get this stuff from. Cheers
If you have a blue bottle get a blue regulator. If your bottle’s red…have a guess. The only difference is freezing point and both will run a cooker adequarely unless you’re outside. Can’t remember which is the one best for outdoor use, think it’s red but I’m not 100%.
Nothing complicated about it really.
Cheers mate , I think red is propane and blue butane , just looking at buying a double burner and wasn’t too sure how to go about getting the correct things and setting it up etc. do you just buy another bottle when empty or get it refilled? As you can guess I’ve never botherd with bottles before lol
Best getting butane (red) bottles it cheaper ,ive got butane last me 3/4months and iam away all week ,run kettle and cooking so always on ,I paid 10pounds on southmins for 4 of those small cooker one so once set up you will save.
Buying bottles is like a deposit thing. When you start you buy the bottle unless you can blag an empty form someone or somewhere.
After that in order to buy one you take your empty and swap it for a full one.
I have a blue bottle with a blue regulator. I disconnect the bottle after I use the cooker and store both outside the cab (side locker)
Red is the best for outdoor but also smell something horrific
Blue = Butane
Red = Propane
Can’t beat two burners and a grill for in cab cooking

Seen 1 in the range for £35 so thought I would get 1 least I have it then. Any ideas on how much I should be pYing for regulator /hose. I only drive a highline TT so only got the 1 locker would put bottle under bed behind passenger seat. Cheers for help

Get yourself to B and M daddycool, £3.99 for four cans,stock up through the summer because they take them off the shelf in winter.
