Airgas sent me a notice early on in the pandemic, then again, in the last couple weeks warning of an impending shortage, so the initial expected shortage may have been avoided due to so many shut downs of users during the height of the pandemic. Now as businesses open back up to more closely full operations, there may be a shortage from filling that demand.
I guess my spunding at the end of primary fermentation will pay off! Cheers to a plentiful supply, though.
