How fizzy does the water get at the maximum setting? Can you set it to super-fizzy then add more water to stretch the cartridges out a little bit?

I'll chime in by saying that whether you set it to low fizz or high fizz, the entire cartridge is used. Based on your question, I think you already know that. As for watering down a fully fizzed bottle, it may work if you don't want too much fizz in your drink. I find that half a glass of juice mixed with half a glass of fizzed water from the fizzini gives the juice a nice sparkle, but it would make for a flat soda. Hope this helps!

I always set mine at max setting. I use ICE-COLD water, charge it, shake it and let it set for a few minutes to relax. I then slowly remove the top and enjoy! It seems you cannot make it any more carbonated. VERY bubbly. I don't want to ruin a parade but, check Walmart dot Com. $14.88!

It gets pretty carbonated, adding an extra 20-30% liquid if you chill the water enough is perfectly fine

We fill ours with tap water and have no problems at all. Then the cartridge does its demineralization process on that tap water.

Mine has been running for over a year the water level is at the top of the cartridge it does great for me on a 3 gallon tank.

don't use 2 cartridges, it may blow the top off. Yes you can make less than 1.2 liters

Take off the cartridge. When you charge, be sure to shake hard and vigorously... then remove and replace cap. I leave the cap in a drawer anyway. It is only for cosmetics and can be left off Hope you like. I use mine all of the time. When you fill with water, be sure it is cool. Saves a lot of money versus club soda or seltzer. Enjoy!

Sorry for the delayed response. You already know they're paper, but I want to share a tip. Instead of filling the press with water and have the first part dribble out weak or turn it upside down and mix it then add the filter and bottom piece after like some suggest, I've found that just by adding a little water and making it like a paste, then adding the rest of the water keeps it from trickling out sooner than those of us who like strong coffee would like.

Just look up the Sodastream flavors, That's what I used. Would recommend the variety pack if this is your first time using a machine like this.

I got this as a gift for my friend, and she has really enjoyed using it. She said that it's definitely one charge per cartridge--once you put it together and get it ready to carbonate the water it automatically uses the whole cartridge.

If water level is correct and you have the bubbles set at right level then just be patient. The bubbles will start getting thicker and slowly work there way up into the cup

I hooked mine up and had the same problem. There's an adjustment on the cartridge that should fix the problem. It should be on the instructions. I thought mine was broken and after the adjustment it's been fine ever since.

I've tried to push it for five or six months but my 26,000 gallon pool begins to show signs of poor resistance to algae infestation. If you want to leave the cartridges in place I'd suggest increasing the use of liquid chlorine, which reduces the soft water benefit.

The cartridge I got works great. Is yours seated properly? Remove it, shake it and put it back in.

I think you may have a defective soda dispenser. Mine empties completely. The only thing I would check is that you are using the right size cartridge but I'm not sure that would effect the dispencing. Just the amount of carbonation.

I have used cartridge for a few years and I always get maximum from them..Must have been a faulty one

It depends on how fizzy you like your water. I make mine pretty fizzy (3 to 4 strong squirts) and generally get about 50 to 60 fills out of each carbonator.

I bought another brand, and have to figure out how to sell them, because they are too long. We buy 100 cartridges at a time, and the cost is about 35 cents per cartridge. We buy the soda stream flavors, and it is more convenient than buying bottles or cans of soda, plus Soda Stream has flavors sweetened with sugar.
