Product Information

Considering you won’t be using single use bottles. Sodastream is a very sustainable alternative for all your soda needs. You can even buy smaller bottles for on the go here. How long does it take till my sparkling water goes flat? If you're wondering which Sodastream to buy, then my recommendation is the sodastream spirit . Which if you’re in America is this one. I’ve crunched the numbers, did the maths and experimented on your behalf to answer your questions. Starting with... Which sodastream should I buy? And what does it all mean!!! On average, every SodaStream machine has the chance of helping you cut out the consumption of more than 1200 single-use plastic bottles and drinks cans – which seems an astonishing figure – but does make sense when you start to add up just how many fizzy drinks a busy family can get through in a week.

Fizzability We rate each machine for how easy it is to get to a good level of fizziness compared with bottled sparkling water.The Sodastream Crystal does the same thing as the others but instead of a plastic bottle to carbonate your water you have a nice crystal carafe. Many of us probably still buy plastic bottles of sparkling water at the supermarket. But with the worldwide concerns over plastic pollution, there’s never been a better time to ‘get busy with the fizzy’ and buy a SodaStream drinks maker to make your own and stop adding to that plastics mountain. The Duo comes with two glass bottles and two reusable, BPA-free plastic bottles with a cap to keep in the fizz. The bottles are made of PET (polyethylene terephthalate), which can be recycled along with the other recyclable plastics in your household. If you're concerned about how many plastic bottles you get through when buying sparkling water from the supermarket, you'll see a huge reduction in plastic waste through using products such as SodaStream.

Build quality We give a final rating for how sturdy it feels and how good it looks on a kitchen countertop. SodaStream and other sparkling water gas cylinders all claim to make 60 litres of sparkling water, but this will vary depending on how fizzy you like your beverages. Ease of setup We analyse how easy it is to set up the sparkling water maker, including inserting the CO2 cylinder and water bottle. Once you’ve carbonated your water, you can add fruity flavour with a SodaStream concentrate (so you can enjoy your favourite fizzy drinks for less), cordial, or freshly squeezed lemon, lime or grapefruit juice. The three-year lifecycle gives SodaStream bottles a far smaller carbon footprint than buying bottled sparkling water every week.The next question you will have is how much does it work out per glass or bottle. Considering the fact that once you have your sodastream, it’s not an endless supply of sparkling water. When it comes to bottles, I recommend the 500ml bottle which you can take with you on the go. I find that pouring the sparkling water from the bottle it comes with into a bottle I can easily carry around with me usually loses the fizz. Finally we have the Sodastream Duo, the only difference here is that it works with both glass bottles and plastic. Once again, a personal preference. As for how much sodastream will cost per glass/bottle. I’ve done the working out for you below! You’re welcome (if you’re American you will have to convert this) The SodaStream bottles themselves won't last forever, as subjecting them to repeated use as pressurised containers over a long period of time causes inevitable wear and tear. This means you'll need to replace the bottles after roughly three years.

Ease of use We make sparkling water in each machine, rating it for how simple it is to fizz the water. As mentioned above. When adding your own syrups to your homemade soda. You have a lot more control over what goes in and generally there is less artificial flavourings meaning it’s a hell of a lot more healthy for you. Are Sodastream eco friendly?The Sodastream One touch is basically exactly the same in design except it's electric and there are 3 buttons on the top instead of one.

Let's assume every glass is 330ml of sparkling water as that’s what you would get out of a can of pop. Plus its a nice size. None of this 200ml serving malarkey.There ‘on the go’ bottles can be used to create the soda and is the perfect shape for keeping in that fizz. For example, if you used your SodaStream to make 4 litres of sparkling water a week for that three-year lifecycle, you'd recycle two bottles instead of approximately 312 that you'd buy from the supermarket. Press the top button till you’re satisfied. 3 presses lightly sparkling 5 medium 7 highly sparkling.
