Brilio.net - 3 kg LPG gas is the fuel source of choice for many people. This is because these melon gas cylinders are sold at a relatively cheap price. Therefore, this green gas is specifically provided by the government for underprivileged communities. Unfortunately, because demand continues to soar, sometimes the availability of 3 kg LPG gas cylinders becomes difficult to obtain, aka rare.
The scarcity of 3 kg LPG gas certainly makes it difficult for people who want to cook. As one solution, you need to save on using 3 kg LPG gas. That way, the gas in the 3 kg LPG cylinder will not be wasted.
A way to save 3 kg LPG gas that many people often do is to soak the cylinder in water. This method is considered to be able to liquefy gas that is already frozen in the tube. That way, gas use will be more economical and maximized. However, according to kominfo.go.id, PT Pertamina Patra Niaga stated that immersing gas cylinders in water is not recommended. This is because LPG gas cylinders that are placed in water actually cause corrosion.
As a solution, it turns out there are other ways that can be done to save on the use of 3 kg LPG gas, you know. There are about six ways explained by a mother from YouTube user Dapur Bunda Keysha.
Practical way to save on 3 kg LPG gas usage.
First, use a quality regulator and hose. To make it easier to assess the quality of the regulator and hose, you can buy these two tools that have passed SNI (Indonesian National Standard).
"It's true that the price is more expensive, but it's still guaranteed so that the gas flow will be smooth and long-lasting," he explained, quoted by BrilioFood from YouTube Dapur Bunda Keysha on Wednesday (17/4).

Second, don't be lazy about cleaning the stove after using it for cooking. The reason is, a pile of dirt on the stove risks blocking the gas flow. As a result, the stove flame will be red and gas usage will be greater.
Next, don't forget to remove the regulator from the gas cylinder when traveling. Apart from safety, this method is effective for saving 3 kg of LPG gas.
The next way to save 3 kg LPG gas is choosing the cooking utensils used. According to these mothers, the best cooking utensils for everyday use are those made from aluminum.
"Besides that it (the aluminum tool) is thin, it is also a good conductor of heat," said the owner of the video.

Apart from having to be selective about the cooking utensils you use, you also need to pay attention to cooking techniques according to the ingredients. For example, when boiling beef, if the cooking water has boiled, you can reduce the heat on the stove.
"Then the heat will remain hot, so we can save gas, but we can also keep the food soft," he said.

It doesn't stop there, it turns out that the location of the cylinder storage can also affect the economy of 3 kg LPG gas, you know. According to this female YouTube user, Dapur Bunda Keysha, it is better to store gas cylinders in an area that does not come into direct contact with the floor.

So the gas will not cool quickly like dew. "There, the gas won't run out until the bottom because below it will freeze," he said.
