How To Hack Your Sodastream with an Adapter - Save Money - DIY

- In this video, I show a hack for your Sodastream in which an adapter is used to connect a cheap welder's CO2 bottle instead of the overpriced sodastream CO2 bottles.
You will need a connector such as this one: www.amazon.com/dp/B087BBZRSS?...

So cool and so helpful. I just got my sodastream Terra last week and immediately wondered if a canister of Co2 like this would be more powerful - as sometimes with the sodastream Co2 it seems a little flat! Glad to see it definitely is!!! Will this hack work on the Terra Sodastream model? And, thanks for the video regardless!
I don't know about the "Terra" Sodastream model, but as long as the fittings are the same as on the "regular" sodastream model, it should fit.
The Terra model uses the new "quick connect" co2 cylinders, which has a sodastream proprietary connecter. This makes using your own co2 supply or refilling the canisters extra complicated- but not impossible.
Great step-by-step instructions. It makes me confident to do this at home. I will be buying supplies today! Thank you for making this video and uploading it.
I've been using it (we are 4 in the family and each of us use it several times a day) since I posted the video, and I saved a lot of money since then.
Amazing video!
Thanks! Please, share it!
All these videos are the same - they show how well it works ON THE FIRST DAY. Let's see a video of day 100. I have almost this same setup and I've already burned through 2 SodaStream machines. The problem is that the seals in the machine are only built strong enough to withstand the lesser pressure of their own canisters. When you hook up a big canister like this it works great for about two months, then eventually the seals blow out on the SS machine and it no longer works. They do this on purpose because the canisters is where they make all their money and they don't want people doing exactly this. If anyone reading this has found a long term solution please reply. Thanks
I don't have this problem. Simply don't press the button fully down. Alternatively, you can add a pressure regulator at the output of your CO2 bottle, so that it delivers the same pressure as a Sodastream bottle.
Simply add a pressure reducer into the line before the soda stream,
@@SM-eg9vk and @Blue Moonshine I have a beer keg that is connected to a pressure reducer and can be set as wanted. Because I have a hose that is not being used (two hoses from the Canister but only one on the Draft machine), it would be perfect to set the other one to the sodastream. What is the expected pressure expected for the sodastream? The beer is set at 3.1 bar or 46.5 PSI. How many bars or PSI for sodastream? This in an awesome idea to use the beer pressure regulator - and much safer than connecting the canister directly to the Sodastream machine. Plus it has the bonus of having the beer next to the soda :)
How do i unconnect the quick connector when plugged in to the soda stream machine?
Is it locked in?
Like any quick release connector: Slide the outer cylinder away, and the inner cylinder will disconnect.
Hello! Do you mean that the pressure that moves into the plastic bottle is higher with that CO2 tank than with the original SodaStream tank ?
Yes, it is!
Well how much would that bottle be and refills?
I got that big bottle for $65, and the refills cost $10. In the end, it quickly becomes much cheaper than the original bottles. Plus, the pressure in those big bottles is greater, which means that there is even more gas.
@@BlueMoonshine amazing. Thank you for the fast and informational response
@@tomlucas8677 You're welcome.
Where did you buy that big bottle ?
I never saw anybody come up with an answer as to what the expected pressure is out of the normal soda stream CO2 bottle.
Could someone please give me an answer?
👍
I found a full 20 pound co2 bottle for $100 great deal
And it shouldn't cost you more than $20 to refill it!
@@BlueMoonshine here in the philippines it will only cost you $7 to refill a 20 pounds coke co2 aluminum tank
CO2 varies in purity from 99.4% to 99.9999%. Which would you want?
The welder CO2 bottle that I'm using in the video turned out to be labelled as "food grade". We can clearly see it in the video.
That is a dangerous hack.
how
If you're incompetent and accident proned, it can be.
That's why you leave this alone if it's above your safety zone.
There is nothing dangerous about CO2.
@kurts7268 That is the stupidest comment! It is just CO2!
@@escapedcops08 What accident are you talking about? Dropping the bottle on your foot? LOL
There is a difference in CO2. Food grade CO2 has less impurities. You need to get CO2 from a homebrew store or similar.
The CO2 that I buy at my welder shop actually has the "food grade" label. It has become a standard.
@@BlueMoonshine From what I understand it varies location to location. In some places there is just one grade and it's always food grade. In others you do get less pure gas so if someone's in a place where they wouldn't get food grade CO2 that could potentially be bad.
@@user-kf7vr1kd8f Ok, but still, the way that CO2 is produced is the same. "Food grade" simply mean that they "checked" that it was safe. It doesn't mean that the "non food grade" is not safe. Anyway, you can still buy a big CO2 bottle with the food grade label at a much cheaper price than the small Sodastream bottles.
@@BlueMoonshine CO2 is CO2, but food grade CO2 has 99.9% CO2 with .1% impurities. Non food grade CO2 may have more impurities. That's why it's important. I have a CO2 tank hooked up to my soda stream so I've looked into it. Depending on where someone lives all CO2 they can buy may be food grade, but in other places if someone gets CO2 from a welding supply company they may get a lower cheaper grade of CO2 with more impurities.
The non food grade has a tiny amount of nitrogen and oxygen which are the "impurities" that are referred to. When using welder's CO2 for food that's a problem, for water it's not a problem.
Lol as if I have empty counter space
So, the world revolves around you?
@@dolorescunningam9262 yeah it does
@@JimNortonsAlcoholism Well, let me tell you something: Nobody cares!
@@dolorescunningam9262 you care clearly
