Response to How long should it take to fill a SS tank?

Bang on advice from Ken there.
If you try to pour too fast you'll just get an airlock, and the liquid won't move.
Just one further thing, put a towel or something reasonably soft under the tank, and give it a few good sharp taps on your worksurface as soon as you've filled it. This dislodges any air bubbles that might have stuck to the film, and helps prevent air 'trails' up the film. SS tanks seem more prone to air bubbles than plastic ones, I don't know why. Maybe it's simply because of the speed of filling.
