I wish I knew about this years ago, the 2.6kg tanks are very cheap and only $20 usd to refill, easily the size of 6 of the little ones. sad how much money I wasted on the soda stream brand, they charge way too much
Good stuff, I like it. I check with your CO2 supplier (especially home brew shops) before spending money on Amazon as a lot of them will only exchange tanks. True air/gas suppliers have the [safety] equipment to refill tanks that are brought in. Also, tanks are certified for a limited time (5 years) and will need to be replaced or recertified after that. If you use an exchange system, this is typically built into the process, so you don't need to get new tanks regularly. If you refill your tank, it will need recertification, and some CO2 suppliers can do that as well.
Any idea where you can find replacement parts for the newer machines? One of my Gaia units has never been able to seal correctly, and wont seal at all now. The company themselves wont provide anything
@@sodascott Filming or no , the cylinder can hit the floor on its valves and. become a torpedo. Eye protection mandatory, gloves just good sense. You promote bad form and normalize deviance from safe procedure. Just sayin'

Thanks for watching and great tip on local tank - my place will fill your own as long as certified. So I like my red one 🤣
underrated video
You want to turn off the main tank because most of the lines I've come across are poorly made and the CO2 will permeate through the wall or fittings.
Always better safe! I have a co2 monitor I keep nearby as well.
Question: Will this work with the Ninja Thirsti also? Thanks!
Is this possible with an Aarke?
It is! Just put together a quick video on how to do this with the Aarke: ruclips.net/video/5v_Yu-toXRI/видео.html
@ thank you! Blessings

liability .huge.
Why stop at 5lbs. Go to 20lbs.
Um, poorest tank safety technique, since blind what's his name with no fingers
What specifically? I do address it being not secured - I don’t normally have it on a table, just for filming purposes.
