Further to this thread.. i just Googled this and found an article on this very question. The reply was this...

"Invert the grenade and inject propane gas into the fill valve at the bottom of the shuttle. You won't need to fill it for long, 3 to 4 seconds at most. I've noticed that grenades can slightly hiss immediately after filling yet exhibit no leaks under an immersion test. AI immerse all the grenades in water to make leaks visible. When asked about this, AI hypothesized that this could be because the propane charge could be boiling away inside the grenade while it warms up. There should be no gradual leaks in your grenades."

So i guess it's OK as long as it's not leaking after i fill it. I am not getting any 'gradual leaks after filling'..
