    Default Gas pressure

    Hey guys, in order to use a propane burner like my 3/4 trex, what gas pressure should I use?
    I hooked everything up, but the flame is burping and while it burns, it is just a very mild candle like flame.

    Currently it is hooked to my propane tank with a standard gas expander at 37 mbar which google tells me is 0.5 psi. I suspect that is way too low?

    That page says 3 to 30 so yeah my paltry 0.5 is not enough
    I'll have to buy a high pressure expander.
    Thx!
