Should I Buy A Sodastream ((BETTER))


Good luck with your Sodastream adventure. There are many things to consider when trying to determine if Sodastream is right for you. I cover many of these on my site in addition to the points listed above. Feel free to drop a line and use my Contact Me page should you have any additional questions.

However, safety was given due attention in that a CO2 monitor was installed to make [Becky] aware of any dangerous leaks. The tank is also placed on a custom scale built with load cells and an ESP8266, which allows monitoring of how much gas is left. [Becky] notes that at her rate of drinking one bottle a day, the tank should last her a full 7 years or so.


You can also refill the 60L soda stream bottle with about 14.2 ounces of dry ice by releasing residual pressure via the built-in soda-stream neck safety valve, then remove the neck valve nd drop in the dry ice and reassemble. But you lose a lot of the dry ice you purchased to sublimation in the time between purchasing it and getting it into the sodastream canister so you have to plan on buying twice as much as you need.


We started with the sodastream crystal machine the one with the fancy glass bottles and I was looking for a way refilling the 425gramm canister myself. I needed a co2 bottle with a downstem to force liquid co2 out of the canister and a speciality refill adapter that fit the sodastream with a small pressure release opening


10 kg bottle initially cost me 140 eur plus 35 eur for the adapter and we have 3 empty sodastream gas bottles to cycle through they need to be chilled in the freezer to allow the full capacity while refilling them.


First subthread started by Clarke: Why are people arguing here? Taking a full lungful from the tank (dry, cold, etc) is not the same as the diminishing O2 over time from a leak. At about 5%, you start to get pretty foggy. You may never feel the buildup, and by the time 10% hits, you are in the damage zone. There is a lot of literature on this. See: It is one of the many gasses I need to be concerned with professionally, and I have no reason to disagree with Dr Clarke, nor should you. A reasonable question is: How to insure that, given the size of the bottle, there can not be a sufficient buildup to be a problem in the event of a leak.


Some news sources reported that SodaStream blamed the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement (BDS) for the closing of its plant.[123] Mahmoud Nawajaa, the BDS coordinator in Ramallah, called the loss of Palestinian jobs at SodaStream "part of the price that should be paid in the process of ending the occupation".[121] SodaStream CEO Daniel Birnbaum blamed Benjamin Netanyahu for the Palestinian job losses. According to Birnbaum, all of the Palestinian employees had passed Israeli security clearance, but were denied permits to work after Netanyahu intervened. Birnbaum claimed that Netanyahu wanted the Palestinians fired so he could then blame BDS. Netanyahu's office denied Birnbaum's claims.[124]


Regardless of the risk, there are proprietors that sell the equipment necessary for a sodastream conversion. Enter these adapters and hoses for modding your sodastream. And so, without further pontificating, I present to you:


This is cool and something that seltzer lovers should set up in their home. I drink it on occasion, just not enough to warrant this DIY set up. I will consider doing it on one of my days off in retirement. Thanks.


Hey Paul, I would love to know how your hack went? I am very frustrated with trying to find a good reliable Sodastream tank hack. I am looking at the thriftyscrimper hack, but thrifty it is NOT ($100 for the adapter) Still, I can switch out the 5 lb tanks near my house for $35 (prices are going UP!) This has been a multi year bit of sporadic research. Were you able to create an adapter from the original sodastream co2 canister?


Yes I am also wondering if everyone turns the tank valve off after use. I assumed they did not (assuming you get a leak proof seal between tank and soda stream. I do have to shut off my argon welding tank because it leaks but I do not have a washer in place which might fix it but I would still shit it off as I dont use it much. For this it would be a PITA to shutoff each time as the tank will be in a cabinet with the hose running thru the wall to an old phone outlet above counter. Kegerators never shut off CO2 as most soda fountains so assume this should be able to be left on, however, Trinity, the company that make the connection hose states that the tank should be shut off and hose drained: =ask_al_aap_hza?_encoding=UTF8&sort=helpful


As far as I understand it, any CO2 tank is going to be 800 psi, give or take. The SodaStream, as far as I understand, is supposed to do all of the regulation and venting, so there should be no need for an additional regulator.


Well I explained in my earlier comment that the sodastream will not work at normal pressure. Mine says its at 1000 psi. It must be reduced through pressure regulation. I would take it to 400 psi and you should be fine. The paintball tank probably had a lot less psi. The sodastream does venting and regulation but its not the best unless you are using small tanks. I listed the equipment you need. Just buy that stuff and you will be set.


Something like that adapter should fix you right up if you have a freedom one+ hose. But you should go to your local hardware store that sells npt thread reducers and buy the correct size one you need. Just bring all the equipment you will need to test it. It should be the regulator to the quick disconnect fitting.


OMG, we are still in the bottled fizzy mineral water phase. And we live in a two-bedroom apt. so we can only have so many liters stored at a time. I have not wanted to invest in the sodastream because the canisters are costly. We are going to do THIS. So excited. Thanks.


what is pressure of a sodastream canister and the 20lb co2 tank?There will be a big difference.450gram (15.87ounce) of CO2 in a 0,6 liter (0,16gallon) tank or 2000gram (70,55ounce ) in 2 liter (0.53gallon)tank,for safety put a regulator on the tank to drop the pressure on 10bar, work-pressure of the sodastream.


I have been thinking about this hack ever since I bought a soda stream several months ago and became a sparkling water addict. My only hesitation with this hack is how much space the tank would take up in my small kitchen. Today I discovered this: -cylinder-filling-adapter.htmlAn adapter that would allow me to refill my standard 400g sodastream tank from a larger tank which I could store in the garage. I thought this might be of interest to fellow small kitchen owners ?


Be aware that you should never try to use a different carbonating cylinder with your SodaStream. The machines are optimized to only fit cylinders of a particular make and model, and trying to force another cylinder to work with your machine is a recipe for disaster.


Once you come to the end of your bottle, which should keep its fizz for several days depending on how tightly you close the lid, simply rinse it out and keep it screwed into your device for next time. CO2 canisters will make up to 60L of sparkling water on average, which should last at least eight weeks or longer depending on usage. Most sparkling water machines incorporate a dishwasher-safe, BPA-free plastic or glass bottle for ease of use and a quick clean-up.


Problem #1 with SodaStream:The cost to refill or exchange your CO2 cylinders is unbelievably expensive! When you run out of CO2 you have 2 options which are to find a local distributor to buy another tank, or you can send in your empty tank and have a new one sent to you for $29.99. $29.99 for a CO2 refill is absurd! It should cost you about $2-4 to refill a cylinder that size.


Depending on how much sparkling water you consume on a regular basis, you might want to invest in one of the fancier models that are bound to last longer. You can also drop extra cash on a 130-liter cylinder which will make 130 drinks, more than double the amount of regular-sized cylinders (via Home Healthy Soda). Your machine may start to leak over time, especially if you use it fairly frequently. All the same, no matter which model you spring for, as long as you show it some TLC you should get plenty of bang for your buck.


Carbonated water can be enjoyed plain or flavored. The only rule of thumb is you should always fizz water before adding any flavor. Carbonating any liquid that isn't water (like juice or tea) can clog the mechanism and void the warranty.


Automatic soda makers should have a space near a power source whereas a manual one can be placed just about anywhere. The key is to pick a model that is easy and efficient to use without disrupting your daily life.


You don't want to stand in front of your soda maker for 5 minutes waiting for your soda water. A carbonated water maker should have the same ease and accessibility as just grabbing a can from your fridge!


Using non-SodaStream cylinders is not a good idea. All our CO2 cylinders are quality tested when refilled. SodaStream gas cylinders should only be maintained and refilled by SodaStream. Unauthorized refilling of cylinders by third parties could be risky. SodaStream only warrants the safety of cylinders refilled by us, and SodaStream is not responsible for products of any other company or brand, which may damage the Sparkling Water Maker and void the warranty.


Another concern when refilling your CO2 canisters at home is ensuring that the equipment used for the job is safe and appropriate for the task. It is important to use only certified parts and components that have been specifically designed for filling carbon dioxide cylinders. Additionally, all connections should be securely fastened before any pressurizing activities take place. Improperly secured connections could result in dangerous leaks or explosions.


He wanted to combine Root Beer and chocolate together and all sorts of flavors that he thought that companies should make so that we could buy. The Soda Stream was perfect for letting him experiment and find the next amazing flavor, or so he thought. 041b061a72
