Soda Stream Adaptor

[Hoops]

Sorry for the delay guys, I've been away with work. I have already PM'd a couple of you and will PM you all soon to let you know whats happening. Shouldn't be a problem though. Looks like everyone's starting to get setup for summer :chug:

A mate of mine has offered me a 20oz paintball cylinder so I will let you all know how it goes. I have two sodastreams and if I get the paintball cylinder I probably wont even have to worry about a big cylinder, especially if he can fill them for me.

Cheers

Be interested to see and hear more about the paintball cylinders ie cost, size, cost to refill, threads or adaptors needed etc etc.
Love how everyone always thinks of new ways to adapt things for brewing B)

sorry to hijack the thread guys - anyone had any luck sorcing 12grm Co2 bulbs in OX

Cheers

There are some around. Try cycle shops as a starting point as they use them for their tyre inflators.
The small ones from the supermarkets can be used in the CO2 dispensers (I assume this is what you have?). I stripped the thread in mine to fit the smaller bulbs and put a nut underneath the bulb to fill the gap and provide pressure as you screw it together.

Check the 1st post on the 1st page. There's a photo and info there. They cost $30 plus postage which is about $6 I believe.

Spoke to the guy that's making them up and he is hoping they will be ready by Friday before I leave for Perth. Will PM you all to confirm everything. Hopefully if that's the case it may save a few people on postage.

I can say from recent experience that dropping the CO2 bottle onto the regulator is not a good thing.

If you want to feel a little more secure, attach some kind of bracket to the thread which protects the gauge from knocks.
