Does anybody have recommendations for a drink carbonator? (like a sodastream)
My partner likes fizzy drinks. I want to get something that will last, and won’t lock us into a single vendor for refills or replacement parts.
I looked at making our own custom one - like this. We might still do something like this, but I’m also pretty clueless with this stuff and don’t want anything to explode or poison us :)
Our priorities, ordered by importance, are:
- No lock-in (adversarial interop is fine)
- Well built/long-lasting
- Convenient, safe, easy to use
Any suggestions?


basically its what I did. I have it on a counter and have a cable that connects it to a tank on the floor. That I have yet to empty. I did empty a smaller tank previously but the price for way more is so cheap and standard tanks you can trade in and just pay the difference.
