Rather than wait for 2 hours for the mapp bottle to thaw, you can set a bowl of warm/hot water under the tank and hold it up onto the tank to thaw it. I used to do that before I went to the larger tank of propylene on my hh.
Some people will switch tanks but I didn't like to do that cuz the torch head was so hot. Not being very coordinated, I always seemed to burn myself when switching tanks.
