Hi there, my husband loves soda and I was looking for what I need to carbonate soda, is this what we need?

This will hold CO2 and will be a very useful part of your system but it depends on how much soda you are looking to carbonate and how often. If you carbonate a lot, then this would be a good fit. If smaller amounts are to be made you may choose a smaller unit, although the larger the container the less often you will have to fill up. Hope this helps. :-)

Maryann,Go to sodastreamusa.com and you will see which sodastream models will take the 130 liter co2. Good luck.Anne

I've never tried to make a carbonated beverage so I'm not sure of the process, but I assume you are somehow creating carbon dioxide in your juice. The wine making sets are designed with an air lock that keeps oxygen out but lets gas escape. If your carbonation project requires an airtight seal to retain the carbon dioxide, these might not be work very well for you. Both the primary fermenting bucket and the large glass carboy are good quality products and have worked well for my wine projects, and if I'm mistaken about your project not working with the air lock then I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Yes, but they are very expensive and much bigger. Soda Stream is a big commitment.It's not cost efficient to throw them out and buy brand new ones.Frankly, i have a bunch of different soda makers and the best by far is the old fashioned bottle that you charge and shake --like from old time movies where they'd add a spritz to some hard liquor. They are like $35 but last forever and the chargers are just pennies per liter.

Fizz Giz comes with everything needed to start carbonating soda. Mine came with two 16g CO2 cartridges that got me started, you can order more of them, search Amazon for Redrock Distributing: 20 ea 16 Gram Unthreaded CO2 Cartridges For flavorings, you can search the web for many great recipes, most of which can be made healthier than what you'd buy in the store.

You will need a CO2 tank. For a description of the type of system involved try looking here: www.popsci.com/diy/article/2012-06/how-make-your-own-home-carbonation-system

I use sodas stream syrups as they work the same. Or you could even use juice just requires more carbonation.

You can add any flavorant you like after the water is carbonated. If you put flavored liquid into the machine it will cause a huge exploding fizzy mess.

I bought this as a gift for my daughter whose family likes it a lot. So I don't have first hand experience. You might try contacting the manufacturer. Or try a retail store which sells SodaStream.

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

This goes on a typical soda bottle. In order to add carbonation (CO2) you need the following:A tank filled with CO2. This is usually easily purchased locally from an industrial gas provider. For personal use a very small bottle is usually fine.. in the 5-10 pound range.A regulator that fits on the tank and takes the pressure down to 30-50psi. This is available online. This is also typically available at many of the above gas providers.A hose to go from the regulator with a connector that connects to this cap. This is typical hose used for soda fountains around the world. Also available online.The tank, regulator, and hose assembly is a very common set-up for soda fountains as well as home beer systems.

There are a lot of ways to flavor your carbonated beverages. Personally, I like mixing concentrated flavors with simple syrup, but that's basically the same thing as Torani syrups and the ones sold by Soda Stream can also be used in a Primo Flavorstation.

Yes. They make a lot of different ones that can be bought online or at places like Target, bed bath and beyond and such that sell the equipment. Personally I prefer to just add some fresh fruit juice to my glass along with the carbonated water. Healthier and cheaper AND tastier

No. Soda Stream requires a LARGE CO2 canister. These are smaller than are standard for current CO2 BB guns.

No this kit does not come in other flavors or diet.. Look on the www and look for ( Home Wine making supply company. ) Get a couple of catalogs and they will have soda making supplies. Yes they have different flavors and the diet kinds also.

Hi Terrecial,One cartridge will make one container of soda. You have to use a different cartridge each time you make soda. I hope this has answered your question. Feel free to ask any more questions regarding the cartridges.

Actually I don't have it anymore (I gave it away). Doesn't it say on the post? I know I bought it for the magnesium, but I found it to be very salty and I am a salt lover. Personally, I'd rather add baking soda and/or pink himalayan sea salt to my filtered water. Sorry I can't help you more.
