What is the difference between propane and butane? Is one more suitable than the other for particular applications?
Propane (red and green cylinders) has a lower boiling point than butane (blue cylinders) and is stored at a higher pressure so it is more suited for storage outside. Butane’s boiling point (conversion from liquid to gas) is around 0C so in colder conditions around this temperature it will not work.
