Can you store the carbonated water(seltzer) you make with one cartridge to use the next day or so or does it loose it's carbonation in a few hours?

I have done that and it does retain a good amount of its carbonation. Mind you it's not going to be as carbonated as it was at first but it's still pretty good. I also kept mine in the refrigerator for the time being which will help it remain carbonated.

Yes! I went on vacation for two weeks, came back and the water + juice drink I made before I left was still very fizzy.

The Unit comes with two lids, one for carbonating it and the other for storing. I have left it in the frig for a couple of days and have not noticed any reduction in carbonation. It is just like any carbonated beverage in this way. If you use part of it and reseal it, that puts more air space in the bottle causing it to loss some of its carbonation.

I left mine in the fridge after making a batch, only using about half one day - and then used the other part about three days later - still fizzy. I don't know beyond that. Actually, I liked the taste of mine better after sitting for a while, it seemed to lose the after taste (I think it is the carbon brand I am using that does that).

What do you mean it's only for baking? I've been missing it with sparkling water to make lemon flavored seltzer. Is there something wrong with drinking this?

Yes, you can. You can put the brewed tea into this water dispenser container and store in the fridge.

About the same amount of carbonation at first. However, the difference is that the last glass of the siphon is just as good as the first. Buy co2 cartridges in bulk.. Saves money

I use the readily available Leland Seltzer Chargers with mine. They are tiny bit short, so I wad up a piece of paper to make up the difference. What I do is insert the cartridge in the Soda Sparkle, then press the paper in between the top of the cartridge and the inside top of the Soda Sparkle. Works just fine. I have also used a thin slice of cork to take up the extra space. I have been using my Soda Sparkle more than two years, and have had great results with no problems.

Do not add sugar, after filling, and sealing. Drink it within a short period of time, say a day or two, unless you have a CO2 pressurization method, then it will last maybe a week to 10 days. Enjoy

I've carbonated all kinds of stuff with mine, no problem. Liquids with sugars tend to get really bubbly rather than fizzy, like when you open a Guiness beer. I've read that the sugars act as condensation points for the CO2, allowing it to come out of solution into large bubbles. You will get better results fizzing water and adding it to your drink. My favorite drink is 20% wine and 80% fizzy water.

This comes with the 1.3 liter bottle which makes a lightly carbonated water from each cartridge. I plan to order the 1L bottle soon to have a stronger carbonation. think the smaller bottle is only available from the Soda Sparkle website, not Amazon.

No - the gases will build up because of the "auto seal" cap - not recommended for carbonated beverages

That's a fascinating question! I've never done it, but knowing the machine technically as I do - YES, you could put carbonated water in it. However, due to the way the machine works, the carbonation would escape too quickly to be useful. The holding tank has a large open surface. The pump process for filling the ice tray circulates water through the system multiple times for each tray of ice. That would un-fizz the water very rapidly. I would be very surprised if many bubbles would ever get into the ice.

Pretty much the same as any other growler out there. Once you introduce air (open and take a pint) the clock starts ticking. If you are looking for something to keep draft beer carbonated while you enjoy it for several days or a week, check out GrowlTap. It was originally called TapItCap which screws onto most glass growlers and you have a tap and CO2 hooked up to it. I love mine and it does a great job keeping beer fresh.

I wouldn't advise using carbonated drinks, they don't flow too well. As for sherbert, the nozzles that pour the drink out are very small so I think it would get clogged very easy. I made a rum runner in mine, and it worked great. Make sure the nozzles are adjusted correctly or it will spurt, but I had no problem with mine once I set it up in the correct manner.

Hi Oscar -- Thanks for your inquiry. You can use any liquid you choose in the Soda Plus. It's fun to fizz up your favorite fruit juices and try different juice combinations -- and it's more economical. You can even make sparkling wines and re-carbonate beverages that have gone flat. Also, the Soda Plus is easy to use and uses any standard brand of CO2 cartridge so you're not limited by more expensive proprietary brands. We hope this information has been helpful. If you want to learn more, please feel free to contact us. Best regards, aaa kitchenstuff

Absolutely! Just give em a quick rinse and place in freezer. When it's time for a frosty mug of beer you are ready. That's exactly where I store mine.
