How much soda does each CO-2 cartridge make?

One cartridge makes one container, which is either 1 Liter or the larger 1.3 liter. The charge inside the cartridge completely releases, once you twist the activator.

The soda stream bottles do not work. They each have a proprietary system. These CO2 bottles can be refilled very inexpensively at Dicks Sporting goods. The Soda Stream can not. Big savings there. You can also buy additional bottles...when I purchased mine they were available at Amazon.

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.

For whipped cream and foams you will need N2O cartridges. If you want to carbonate, you'll have to buy CO2 cartridges.

I've only used my machine a few times and still have 2 replacements left, so I'm not sure if you can use other cartridges to carbonate. I wouldn't.

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.

Stephen, There is a screw cap on the tip of the tool for opening and closing the valve. You can open the valve to dispense the co2, and when you're done, close it to save the rest of the cartridge. I usually get 2-3 uses per cartridge on my bike (tires are 26"x2.0" for a beach cruiser.) If you have a road bike with smaller tires I would ASSUME one could get more uses, but I don't know for sure. Maybe some one with a road bike can chime in on that?

I had to buy my own CO2. It uses 2 of the small containers at a time. Works pretty good, at high rates of fire.

Commercial carbonation is 8g pre lieter. The CO2 cart, that fits the carbonater is 16g.That being said in a perfect world 2 lieter bottles or one 2 lieter bottles. I prefer thesmaller sizes the bubbles hold up longer. I went for the adapter that fits a standardpaint ball bottle. Much cheaper to use and I get great results. I also have a "SODASTREAM"unit and it gives very poor results. You can't shake the bottle during carbonation. a keycomponant to good carbonation.

Not sure how it compares with fizz giz but the SodaPlus produces excellent carbonation levels. The trick is to make sure the canister is very cold before adding water and carbonation.

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.

Hi JosEEEph -- Yes, you can use most other brands of CO2 in the Soda Plus including mosa but, of course, it works best with the Soda Plus CO2 cartridges. Regards, aaa kitchenstuff

One. The cartridges are single use. They can be bought in bulk, though, which makes them very inexpensive, and still cheaper than buying your soda water.

12 gram co2 cartridges you can find at local walmarts and such. Not sure on the latter part.

Yes, you can carbonate water with less than 1.2 liter in the bottle. I have not tried 2 cartridges. It might be dangerous pressing second cartridge into a pressurized bottle. Chilled liquid and some ice in the bottle seemed to help with more fizzle.
