Default Wierd nitrous purge

Got my bottle filled at a different place this time and noticed some liqiud coming out of the purge. Its white but its almost like it is spitting sometimes. It seems like it hits the same as it did before, anybody got any ideas? Normal? Bottle psi was around 1000-1100.

When I had my bottle filled yesterday I watched some white liquid being cast off due to the hose not being sealed completely. I think it's jsut nitrous in it's liquid form that you were seeing.

It has been alittle colder here lately. I was getting use to the sun heating up for me when the car sat. I'll stray away from the torch for now.

Nitrous is so cold it condenses and freezes moisture from the atmosphere whenever it's vented. If it's more humid outside the effect is more pronounced. Likely it's water condensing and melting. It has nothing to do with bottle temperature other than the fact that higher temperatures correlate to higher pressures, meaning more is venting.
