i use the soda stream (fizz gizz guy makes them). it was 35.00 if i remember right. I connect that to a 5lb co2 tank (lasts about 2 years @ 5 or so 20oz sodas a day. the 5lb tank i lease from napa (the car place.. they lease co2 and other gas tanks). It cost 150.00 to lease the tank (i get all...

Reading this post made me try some cherry soda.. I took about 10 or so maraschino cherries , blended them and 3 or 4 tablespoons of its syrup and added to 20oz cold iced water and carbonated (forced). Cherry soda is now in a close running with my all time favorite, birch beer..

I was on the hunt for this as well for a while, I came accross this http://www.faeriesfinest.com/E183.html?gclid=CLSl87Xw47UCFcdDMgodx2AAyA and bought it. This is the clear kind of birch beer (unlike what the picture is). a little goes a long way. 10 drops + 4 tsp sugar + 20oz water, then add...

i have never tried this method while carbonating with yeast baking soda/powder etc.. only by forcing co2 from a tank into a PET bottle. So i cant say if it would in the method you are using to carbonate. but i think the idea is the same.. if the bottle is a bit soft before you open it, that...

If you make soda with a fizz giz or carbonation cap where you shoot the co2 into the bottle and shake.. you probably noticed some recipes will fuzz up all over the place when you open the bottle.. try this.. Fill bottle with co2 normally until it gets hard and shake until bottle is soft...

grape flavor concentrate from RIO dont taste too bad.. 1 tsp + 4 tsp sugar per 20oz water.

I dont know if this can still be called a cream soda (cant remember ever having one) or not, but i altered the recipe from saramc a bit.. about 5 tbl spoons maple syrup, 10 drops of birch beer extract, 3 drops lemon/lime concentrate (from RIO)..1 tea spoon vanilla (i just have the imitation...

a 24oz paintball tank for me, lasted about 1.5 months at about five 20oz sodas per day.

For anyone interested i did finally find some http://www.faeriesfinest.com/E183.html?gclid=CLSl87Xw47UCFcdDMgodx2AAyA The pic in this is not correct, It IS the clear kind. Still experimenting, but 10 drops birch beer extract, 4 tsp sugar, 1 drop cinnamon oil mixed in 20oz seems to make a good...

i use the soda rope, made by fizz gizz. he has a few devices for soda on his page.. www.fizzgizz.com .. i think.. google it.

Does anyone know where to get (on line) some Clear Birch Beer Syrup or concentrate? or maybe an oil that I could use to make soda? thanks kurt

i get a lot of people who like this when i try it on them.. 3 table spoons cola (RIO concentrate) 1 tablespoon black cherry (RIO Concentrate) mix in 1 gallon water Then i pour that into a 20oz bottle, add 3 drops LorAnn Cinnamon oil, 3-5 teaspoons sugar. Then i carbonate with a fizz giz tastes...

I use RIO flavorings and Lorann oils (mostly RIO).. very good. Using there concentrates rather than syrup is best... cheaper (a lot) and you can add your own sugar to taste..

Loranne oils has a very good bubble gum flavor. 5 drops or so mixed with some RIO flavorings (strawberry and/or cherry), 3-5 teaspoons of sugar in a 20oz soda bottle, then carbonate (i have a fizz giz).. tastes just like bubble gum
