FAQ – SODA MAKER

CO2 gas can be purchased online via our website and delivered to your door. Pickup is available from our our various partners all over Indonesia.

Our bottles are made from BPA free plastic. They have a life span of 3 years! And can be recycled at the end of their life.

The DrinkMate/ Basic, Iconic, Dynamic and The Slim models of the Sodafresh Soda Maker can carbonate any beverage, but we recommend only carbonating water with the Rhapsody and the Purific model.

No, Sodafresh Soda Makers do not require batteries or electricity.

Our Soda Makers use manual carbonation, so you don’t have to worry about electrical shocks or running out of batteries. Simply use the machine according to the instructions and enjoy your freshly carbonated beverages.

YES!

If you’re drinking plain sparkling water, the answer is YES!  as long as the water reaches the water fill line on the carbonating bottle.

And if you already prepared a drink with flavor, the answer is still YES!

Since not only water can be carbonated in the Soda Maker, you can re-carbonate once you’ve added flavor.

Carbonated beverages can last up to several days when stored properly. However, they may lose some of their carbonation and flavor over time.

The rubber seal on the cap keeps your soda water from going flat as quickly as ordinary store-bought beverages. If you make sure to close the cap tightly, and keep the bottle in the refrigerator, your soda water should remain fizzy and fresh for up to two weeks.

It sounds like you may be out of CO2. If that is not the case, please contact our customer support team to troubleshoot the issue.

Few things that tell you when your CO cylinder is empty:

When you press the carbonating button you will not see any gas going into your bottle of water.

Even after repeated presses your water is not carbonated.

The carbonator splutters, showing you have run out of CO

Pro-tip: Keep a spare CO2 cylinder handy so that when one cylinder runs out, you simply swap the empty cylinder for a full one.

Troubleshooting suggestions:

1. Tighten the cylinder into place to verify that it is full.

2. Ensure that your sparkling water maker is always in an upright position.

No, just use cold drinking water for the best results.

Long Answer:

• You don’t need any special water to make Sparkling Water. Simply use cold drinking water for the best carbonation results.
• Using any other type of water, such as warm or hot water, may result in lower carbonation and an unsatisfactory taste.
• With a Sodafresh Soda Maker, you can easily fill the carbonation bottle with water from your dispenser at home and carbonate it in seconds, making it a quick and easy process.

When maximum carbonation is reached, you will hear a distinct “zisssshhhhhh” sound, indicating that the machine has released excess gas through the safety valves. However, the level of carbonation can vary based on personal preference. We recommend experimenting with different levels of carbonation to find your perfect sparkling drink. Check out our tutorial videos for more tips on carbonation levels.

The temperature of the water / beverage has a big impact on the ability of the liquid to hold CO2. The colder the better.

If you carbonate a beverage other than plain water with the Rhapsody and the foam did overflow, don’t worry!

Short answer: Remove the gas tank and rinse the machine inside out under the water tap.

Long answer: There are no electrical parts inside the Sodafresh Soda Maker, so it is completely safe to remove the gas tank and rinse the machine inside out under the water tap. After that, re-attach the tank and flush the system by carbonating a plain glass of water. This should solve the issue.
