How long does a propane tank last you? (sh.itjust.works)

I’ve been brewing indoors on a gas stove and it takes forever to get 10 gallons to a boil. I bought an outdoor propane burner and haven’t taken it for a spin yet. How long does a propane tank usually last you?

10 kg of propane-butane tank lasted me for about 5 or some more batches of 30l.

It is hard to estimate because it is used for more things than beer. I always tried to have min 2 kg of gas before starting brewing.
