Facts

[@nickm31]

Good info but a couple of things. Never put your ear against a high pressure system to check for leaks. Yiu could blow your ear drum out if there was a burst escaping. Use soapy water. You will see bubbles if there is a leak. Please dont tighten the hose as hard as you can. You will crushed the seal and create leaks.

[@antonbende8210]

hahahahahahaha he?? what did you say ??

[@dianapennepacker6854]

​@@antonbende8210WHAT WAS THAT?! WHY IS THE GUY CRUSHING SEALS THEY ARE CUTE MAMMALS HAHA. THEY DONT CAUSE LEAKS.

[@robertcoulson483]

Excellent! When they fill soda bottles at a Major brand soft drink maker, the water is chilled to 38 F, as that is the best temp to dissolve CO2 into the water.

[@skip081961]

You can find gas businesses who will fill your brand-new tank without having to trade it in for one of theirs. I live in a small city and I found a business, "Fire Ace", where they deal with gasses and fire extinguishers and they fill my 20 lb. tank for $31 + tax. They certify and properly label it as well. Their primary "food-grade" CO2 customers are the home beer brewers.

Thank you! I concur with your comment about paintball tanks having no, or negligible, food-grade concerns. I have gone through four 24oz paintball tanks (til they expired) and there was no noticeable bad taste, smell, or anything from the tanks, even when new (and my wife tends to notice everything of that sort). Anyway my tanks have expired again, so I am thinking of going with this larger 5lb tank now.

[@Patricia-lts]

it keeps getting better man. i love it

[@Wooskii1]

Quick tip- Be sure to use the "spit test" to check for leaks! Maybe obvious to some, but put a bit of soapy water on the connections and let it sit for a bit. If you see bubbles starting form you know you have a leak and where it's located. Same way you check your bike inner tube, among other things, for slow leaks.

Just a friendly note that if you are stressed about to high of pressure you can always use a co2 regulator that can slow down the pressure being released from the tank you would be able to purchase one from your local brewery store or commercial gas/welding store ie: in Australia go to BOC

[@lazurm]

Where can one obtain the spec on what is a safe pressure to regulate it to, in order to prevent Sodastream seal failure?

I'm answering my own question. It's from 55-60 lbs./inch.

[@frankweir9514]

Alex...Super helpful. Check out Fizz Giz...superior to Soda Stream in many ways. But it also uses a paintball tank so your two videos helping me since, as you said, its next to impossible to refill SMALL paintball C02 tanks now and that will only get worse as paintball gun technology evolves. Fizz Giz uses a tank, small gun and hose, proprietary cap valves, ANY 1 liter soda bottles. Can carbonate fruit juices, flat growler beer, flat soda pop. With Soda Stream, last 1/3 of each bottle would go flat wasting gas. I love the Fizz Giz honestly. THANKS AGAIN! I'm definitely going to buy a 5 lb tank so I don't have to fill paintball tank with dry ice. Pretty sure Fizz Giz will connect directly to the CGA 320 on the 5 lb tank.

[@davidv7275]

I've done this for years now, couple tips. I have bought mostly less expensive hoses over the years and they all so far have failed after a year or two. Shut the tank valve and drain the hose after use. Makes it kinda of a pain but worth it. However if the hoses keep failing, puts a dent into the actual savings. Also tried at one point to use a regulator, but did not carbonate as well. Full force (no regulator) works best and I have read is fine to do.

[@jps99]

Thanks, well done video!

[@ericafors6039]

Great video! ❤

[@letter2steve]

Super helpful. Thanks dude. 🙂

[@JustinLawrence73]

Loved this, thanks Alexander! One further iteration might be to drill the hole through the bottom of the Sodastream, beneath where the bottle would have been, and feed the pipe through a hole in your counter, then hide the tank in the cupboard below. Should look quite pro!

[@sonny878]

That's what I did. I got a 20-lb CO2 tank from a local supplier, bought a 5 foot long adapter line from eBay, and have it directly connected to my sodastream.

[@mvadu]

If you Soda Stream Fizzi model it already has opening below the CO2 bottle. No need to drill.

[@hastypete2]

You can remove the label on the soda stream dispenser. Looks nicer without it.

[@TheSchniposa]

15$ for a refill? that's insane! Over here in Germany you have to pay a deposit if you get a new 60L tank (I think i payed 25€ (30$) to always have a spare tank if one is empty). After that you can swap tanks in almost any grocery or drug store for 4-8€. Price differs if you get a original sodastream refill or get a third-party refill (same tank with new labeling). E.g. in my town the Stadtwerke (municipal utilities) sell filled tanks (in exchange for empty ones) for about 4.50€ (approx. 5.20$). When I'm in the US I always get San Pellegrino or Perrier.

[@Psi-Storm]

I have a 10kg tank with a pressure hose like in the video. I pay 25€ to refill the bottle maybe once a year, so only 1€ for the volume of a small bottle, compared to your 5€. In our region swapping the sodastream co2 bottles also costs at least 6,99€.

[@user-xu8jl9yc3k]

Where do you get the tank?

[@jacobb546]

I'm looking at the adapter hoses for sale and wondering, what's the difference between hoses listed as (G1/2) and (W21.8-14)? Will either work with a CGA320 valve tank?

[@stubberific]

Thanks @alex, another excellent video. One question, with this setup do you need to invert the large tank? I've read elsewhere that a syphon tank is required if you want to keep it upright but wondering if you can clarify. Thanks again for helping others.

[@Psi-Storm]

No, a syphon tank is used to easily refill smaller bottles, since it outputs the liquid co2 from the bottom of the tank. For beer or beverages you want one that gives you the co2 gas from the top of the tank.

[@kitmarshall4084]

have you look into drinkmate? the cap on the drinkmate bottle doesnt screw off when finish adding CO. the pro is that you can get a more fuzzy drink by moving the bottle to the freezer after fuzzing to deep saturate with the water (warning: don't keep it in the freezer for too long, it will explode). Also you could also fuzz your juices or soda and not have to worry because you can wash the cap afterward something you cant do with sodastream.

[@WDC_OSA]

I purchased all of these parts, but the CO2 tank is not letting out any gas at all, with and without the hose attached. Any suggestions on opening it up?

[@marcosemc]

Great video, thank you! Sonhou think there’s a lot of waste when the big tank is running low? Or does it use most of it?

[@waituntilthebeep]

It will run down until there is no liquid left so virtually no waste. If you buy your own tank and have it filled at the local fire extinguisher place, there is absolutely zero waste.

[@renegrondin8162]

I recommend that the first 10 bottle that you fizz to be gentle on openning the valve of the co2 tank because there is a lot of pressure and dont push all the way the button on the Sodastream,at present im at the 10th week on 5 lbs tank and everything seem to be alright.Sheers

Thank you from taking my "I want to do this, but it too expensive mind" to "I want to do this, and it's cheap mind"! Just one other equation to plug in, you said you use one tank per two months, so the question is how much do you drink? One bottle a day, week? 3 bottles?

How safe is keeping a 5lb co2 tank in your kitchen?

[@DrMJT]

When you press 'Fizz'... stop before the overfill squawk. Then Wait at least 30 seconds before doing another Fizz button. Then Wait another 30 seconds for the third Fizz. Wait 10 to 15 seconds and release the bottle. This gives the CO2 time to dissolve into the water. When press, press, press and Release in a few seconds... there is not sufficient time for the CO2 to dissolve in water. Everyone who does the 'wait' between the three Fizz will use LESS CO2 and have Very Fizzy water, wine, tequila, vodka (anything other than water - only fill bottle to the 25 to 33% amount/volume of the SodaStream Bottle - do not fill to the WATER Line with wine or alcohols). :)

[@davejoseph5615]

That looks like the hose kit I purchased, with the external metal braid, but it worries me to have such a high pressure in a hose. I think it would be safer to have a regulator before the hose, but I've read that you still want more pressure than the typical 60psi of a beer regulator.

Hey Alexander -- quick question: I've seen over videos where they say the tank should be turned upside down when filling the Sodastream cannisters. Wondering if there's a reason you don't have to do that with your set-up (ie/ does your tank have a siphon tube)? Many thanks in advance.

[@cdmccul]

I'm surprised no one has answered. If the tank is upside down (or as you questioned, if the tank is using a siphon tube), you get the liquid CO2 from the bottom of the tank. If you don't have it inverted upside down, you only draw off gaseous CO2. You get the same pressure either way, but if you only put in gas, you can only put in so much volume. If, however, you put liquid in your tank, that liquid will evaporate much more volume of gas than gas alone would over time. The act of turning liquid to gas takes a lot of heat, creating a chilling effect - this effect would freeze the water solid if introduced into the soda stream bottle, and would likely cause damage to the plastic of the soda machine because of the exchange cold (not because of pressure, but because the plastic wouldn't hold the liquid under pressure and it would quickly boil off into CO2 gas).

[@vincentng1781]

@Cean McCullough So if I have a tank with a siphon tube then I should see if I can have the tube removed to use the set up in this video.

[@cdmccul]

@@vincentng1781 You could, yes...but maybe you can just invert your tank so that the liquid is at the top of the tank (with the top pointing down now) leaving the tube inside the tank out of the liquid pool.
