Good town for resupply. Lot of accommodation, some supermarkets and restaurants in Curarrehue, also bus to Pucón. I resupply at Supermercado Katty(-39.36219, -71.58473), because locals told me it is the best in Curarrehue, and i find 230g gas canisters at GYG Supermercado (2nd floor)(-39.36043, -71.58693), it just left 2.
