Is anyone having problems getting enough fizz? Mine produces some bubbles but hardly enough to tickle your tongue.

If you fill the bottle and put it in your refrigerator until it is cold, and then try to carbonate it, more carbon dioxide will dissolve into the water and make it fizzier. Also, when you remove the bottle or the lid, allow the pressure to equalize very slowly. The slower it equalizes, the greater the amount of carbon dioxide that will remain dissolved in the water. I have 4 refill bottles to ensure that I always have a cold bottle to carbonate.

Mine is definitely bubbly. Make sure you hold down the large button each time (3 times) you aerate it. You should hear a pop.

We got our Primo at Christmas and have yet to get a satisfactory amount of carbonation in a single bottle that I've made. It's an answer I'd love to get, too!

I get the fizz, but need to give it extra pumps and increase the amount. It works fine if I do that.

hi, I got a couple of new ones from Nespresso, made no difference...I just think the machine is not up tp it, I even got anew machine and more whisks...but this week, not much froth, just warm milk, very annoying...yet my friend has an old machine that works every time...need to find an antique! Good luck. Am going to put my machine on e bay...never been so disappointed, I was going to buy a machine for my sons...but they are not keen any more having seen my results.

Does anyone know if the pump problem has been resolved? Was there ever really a problem, or was it always a combination of air bubbles and/or clogged needle?

This doesn't happen to mine but happens to my mom sometimes and she has the same thing. Make sure you shake the bottle really well after filling it... That seems to help more than anything

Hi yes that happens you also get bubbles in the line. I used it for a little less than a month and then I got an error reading.

Try putting it in the bath tube under water and see if there is bubbles coming out

I have read some, not all reviews share the same issue. For me the inserts did not freeze, and whatever color the liquid was, colored the lining/insides and the drink tasted weird..... The company replaced mine, and they work great.

I have to agree with other responders. Mine woulldn't bubble up at all until I found out how to adjust the spray. It comes up about 1 1/2 to 2 inches, and doesn't get on the floor at all. Hope you can get it working properly!

I get my capsules at amazon subscribe and save which is a good deal compared to CBTL's website . Thank you for your comment....I will try my machine again....it is a new machine and so I was trying to prime it....and no water came out. I tried mine about 10 times in 2 hours before I gave up. But I will try it again before I put it in the garage. And thanks for the tip on Bed Bath and Beyond.....they used to carry them at Target and I got a good deal when they closed the brand out there.

So most everyone sees these bubbles as a problem? I miss them having switched from a pair of simple power filters. I have the eHeim intake on one end of the tank and the output dumping down into a bubble wand for a long strand of lots of bubbles. The fish - tetras, mollies, platys, loahces - tend to congregate on the intake side of the tank. Not cool?

I will test one and let you know of the results.Edit: It will make the edges rise and cause bubbles.

I wish I could help you. The stoppers didn't keep the bubbles in for me, either. I should have returned them, but I didn't try them until long after the return period.

I had to pour a little bit of water in with the bubbles to get it to work. You also have to be careful not to overfill it. I used regular bubble bath and just poured in a little water until it started to work better. I hope that helps some or fixes it for you.

That's odd. I have just used the brand once so far so I couldn't tell you yet if I'm having the same problem. You may have to keep stirring longer.

I am having the same problem Although I have only tried "Adult popsicles" and they have booze in them. I will try the reg and see what happens. I really think maybe the stick is too short.

I am not too happy with mine. It doesn't flow out quickly. I am in the process of returning my purchase. Wish you luck. Try calling customer service they might be able to help you
