    Soda siphon without disposable cartridges

    Looks like I did some more research and the point tip are indeed different sizes. 8g = 8.6mm, 12g = 7.5mm. Back to Sq. 1

    Soda siphon without disposable cartridges

    Ok wonderful, I will be attending a few shops here in the Oshawa/Whitby area to see if I can find a comparison. Also, is it normal for people to use a keg to store just carbonated water? And if yes, does the process of releasing the co2 only upon serving water to the glass act as the same...

    Soda siphon without disposable cartridges

    Sounds good, and I really appreciate your replies they are very helpful. I only stumbled upon abit of a pause when you said you were looking for your third carbonater, as I wasn't sure what you mean by having them on hand? I plan on using 1 carbonater and just replace it with the regular cap of...

    Soda siphon without disposable cartridges

    Thanks for the informative reply, now onto the rebound questions. As for your 8 gram vs 12 gram scenario, while that might be true doesn't that mean that the cartridge might be longer in size and the tip of the cartridge is still the same? So that it can fit into the seltzer bottle? If no, then...

    Soda siphon without disposable cartridges

    Let's assume I already cater to a 5Lb tank and use a carbonation cap for my PET bottle, if I wanted to fill a seltzer bottle wouldn't I already have the regulator from my tank to fill the seltzer bottle? And question, you mentioned the cartridge might disperse increments of co2 or on a paintball...

    Soda siphon without disposable cartridges

    Edited: Pretty neat, the connection that goes to the paintball tank, would it fit a 5lb tank? If so, would I have to pass it through my regulator? Also, if I were to use the mini cartridge on the other side of the cable and hook it up to the siphon, will I just fill it like I always do like a...

    Soda siphon without disposable cartridges

    I think I would still like to see a reply to the OP's regard to his question, because I am interested as well. I find the siphon is ideal for zero loss of carbonation when I'm on the go. Is it even possible????

    Siphon Question

    Back in my hometown in South America when I last visited there (last year), seltzer water is a booming business, but one of the companies there catered to selling Siphon jugs of 4L to households where you just pressed on the nozzle and every drop of water was contained in awesome carbonation...

    The Big Bottle Brew - Mexican Cerveza - With Pics and Video

    I actually went to this place in Whitby, Ontario today and they had this bottle kit on display for about $5. I was hesitant to try it but I think I might head back down there this week and go for a try. The price difference in savings isn't much ($5 per 6 pack) but hey, still $5 :)

    Newbie Questions

    I see most people on youtube describe the process of carbonating the cold water inside the 2L bottle, and then they add the syrup and mix. Can't you carbonate the bottle already with the syrup mixed into the water? I ask this because if I'm having to shake the bottle which reduces the cold...

    Sodastream Alternatives

    that 20 ounce paintball tank, mind telling me how many fill you get out of it by filling 2L bottles? I remember reading somewhere where it was mentioned it came out to about $0.05/L but not sure if it was using a 5lb or 20lb tank. So I am curious to know about the success of thie 20 ounce tank...
