    I used to use chemipure. It's really good.
    I opened up a bag not long ago and they put some kind of magic beads in there that look like caviar. I'm guessing they do that to keep the carbon from compacting.


    Anway, it's also super expensive.

    Personally, with 3 tanks, I burn through carbon too fast to go with that stuff.

    So now I get this:

    The ESV stuff seems pretty darn good and 4 pounds for $20 is hard to beat.
