CO2 Gas Bottles

[Glideman]

Just looking into getting a Co2 bottle & was wondering, whats the best size for a gas bottle? Don't want anything too big or heavy but don't want it too small either. Whats the most popular size?

I've been on the gas company websites and it seems they don't just sell one type of gas for beer, some also sell mixed gas for beer dispensing, whats the best one to get for beer?

Sorry about all the questions, I'm new to cornies and not up to speed with all the terms

Thanks for any help :

Standard home brew use C02, you can use 'mix' for Guinness and cream flow, personally I've always just used C02.
