How many sodas does one co2 make?
1499500
That depends on the amount of CO2 you are using per soda. Honestly, I have never counted. The amount of CO2 is controlled by you. Therefore some people will get less sodas if they use more CO2 than others. Also, you only want to sparkle very cold water, otherwise you are wasting CO2. The CO2 can also be refilled at many hobby-shops, instead of purchasing refills. I pay just under 5$ for a refill. I have found that single canister will last me a month, give or take. And I make a great deal of carbonated beverages.

Let me tell you what I did. I weighed the co2 bottle when I first got it. Then, after about four 1/2 liter sodas I reweighed it. I do three squirts of the co2 about 1 second each squirt. This results in a well carbonated drink. According to my calculations you should get somewhere between 65 and 69 1/2 liter sodas. I have had mine for about a couple of months and we use it regularly and when I checked it yesterday I have used a little more than half of the bottle. I hope this helps. Also, about getting it refilled at a hobby shop: be sure to ask if it is food grade co2. A lot of hobby shops add an oil to the co2 to help keep the paint guns lubricated Let me tell you what I did.

Nope. These chargers are for 1 liter soda siphon. Soda stream makes more than one liter, it's like a soda fountain. Read the Soda Stream instructions 1/2 way down the page.... "As soon as the starter carbonator runs out, visit one of the 15,000 stores to exchange it for a full 60L one (visit www.sodastreamusa.com to find the store nearest to you). "

You are correct, 20 times is too many. I had the same problem with mine. My grown nephews each have 1 and they only have to push, at the most, for extra fizz, 5 times. Unfortunately, Amazon will not replace the soda stream unit.):

Was told to only use Co2. I bought 2 big bottles. Refills are cheap. $3. Per bottle. One bottle will last all day of playing at a paintball course. Very happy with my gun.

One, I actually used it on 11, 5 gallon jugs and by the instructions it metered out perfectly, not one drop short or 1 drop over.

They're one-use cartridges. I think all 8g CO2 cartridges are made for just 1 liter or so. I use these in my 1L Isi Soda Siphon.

Sorry, I don't know the answer. I think it depends on how much carbonation you put into the water. I like a lot of carbonation so I have two 20 oz canisters that I keep on hand for the Primo (one in the machine and one extra).

primo co2 will work. some flavorstation machines come with 2 nozzles for tank that will work with flavor stations and soda stream co2 bottles.

I'm just looking at the details here, so provided they are correct: If you put 2 scoops (45G) in each drink, the total bottle is 630g, you can make 14 drinks. 1 scoop in each drink, you can make 28 drinks.

If you use less water (say, half as much as normal), puncture the CO2 canister, then vigorously shake the bottle for ten seconds, finally let it stand for another ten seconds before depressurizing, you will get greater carbonation without risking damage to the product. That would be the equivalent of using twice as many CO2 canisters on a full bottle. Hope that helps!

As far as I know only the Penguin and Crystal models use glass bottles. The rest use plastic. Some people carbonate in the plastic bottle then transfer the soda to the glass carafes. SodaStream 21-Ounce Glass CarafeCarbonate your drinks in the PET bottles (BPA-free) that came with your soda maker, then transfer your carbonated drink to this elegantly crafted glass carafe for serving and storage.

Judy,That's a good question. However, it is too difficult to know how many drinks this machine makes at one filling. The reason is b/c it all depends on what drinks are being made. Some drinks require more or less alcohol, sweet 'n sour, orange juice or cranberry juice. So, depending on the type of drink selected determines how many drinks can be made in one filling. Make sense? More than likely, you will run out of the alcohol, first, due to every drink containing some amount of the rum, vodka or tequilla (depending on which one you use).Richard

About 150-200 shots can be fired before the co2 runs out it also depends on the kind of co2 your using and how old it is

None. You can get them either on-line or a cook store near you like Williams Sonoma or Sur La Table. You may also want to buy a package of CO2 chargers (soda) if you are planning to infuse carbonation in fruits.

The co2 cartridges are not, that's why people tend to get the 20oz refillable tank. You can buy that on Amazon and get it filled at a spoting goods store like Sports Chalet. It cost $5 and lasts a good while. I drink between 2&3 17 oz bottles a day and I fill the tank every 9 months or so, maybe longer. It depends on how fizzy you want your drinks. When you buy a tank, you need the rope thing. I love it. Hope that helps.

In my experience about 8-9 beers, but not beacuse you run out of CO2. That's just when it stops working.
