Was at the local station filling a tank for the patio heater, and a thought hit me:  we hear a lot about the quality of gasoline.  Chevron/Shell/Mobil vs. the cheapie station, Premium vs. Regular, etc.

Yet, propane is just propane.  I've never heard that "this" propane is better or worse than "that" propane.

I've heard that butane  is a bastard gas. 

 

Is it all the same?

I tell you what.

I only use premium propane when cooking for myself. If cooking for guests, I use the cheap shit.

You CA folks get a propane with more propylene in it for your emissions standards.  I think it’s HD10

The rest of us slobs get HD5 with less or no propylene.  
 

There is a commercial grade which is wired differently. 
 

It all pretty much burns the same. 
 

No need to look for or purchase hand-made, artisan propane.

So, the motherfucker that's been selling me "organic" propane at the farmer's market has been bullshitting me?

Technically, true. It's dead dinosaurs.

On top of that, it’s probably methane. 

I only burn propene. Its the best 3 carbon chain around. 

I’ve been told that they sell a filtered propane. Not sure what that consists of.
