| Gas | 2.6kg CO2 cylinder, supplied full |
|---|---|
| Regulator | Type 30 MK4 (6.5bar PRV, 100psi gauge) |
| Carbonating pressure | About 30psi |
| Bottles | Not included. Use pressure-rated PET soda bottles |
What's included
- 1 x 2.6kg CO2 gas cylinder (full)
- 1 x Type 30 MK4 regulator (6.5bar PRV and 100psi gauge)
- 1 x EVABarrier 5mm x 8mm double wall line (12m in bag)
- 1 x duotight 8mm (5/16") ball lock disconnect, grey/red gas
- 1 x red FermZilla carbonation cap
How to set it up
- Fit the regulator to the cylinder. Cut about 2m of line, straight and clean with no burrs.
- Push the line fully into the regulator's grey push-in fitting, and the other end fully into the red/grey disconnect.
- Leak test: open the cylinder, set the regulator to 30psi, then close the cylinder. If the gauge reads zero an hour later, there's a leak. Snug the fittings slightly past hand tight and check the line with soapy water.
How to make soda water
- Fill a soda bottle with cold tap or filtered water, leaving about three or four fingers of headspace, and screw on the carbonation cap.
- Chill the bottle in the fridge for 5–6 hours, or overnight.
- Open the cylinder and set the regulator to about 30psi.
- Connect the disconnect to the cap and shake the bottle in 30-second bursts.
- Open gently, taste, and repeat until it's as fizzy as you like.
FAQ
Can I use any plastic bottle?
No. Use soda water bottles, which are pressure rated. Still water bottles are not.
Why carbonate in stages?
It's easy to get CO2 into water and much harder to get it out, so add fizz bit by bit until you find the level you like.
Does more headspace help?
Yes. More headspace carbonates faster.
