Soda stream thread

[hotmelt]

I've searched but I can't seem to find a thread: where can I buy a soda stream gas bottle, without having to buy the complete soda stream kit?

Costco Auburn are selling two bottles for $49.
JB Hifi Marsden Park have refills/swaps $14.

As we seem to be talking about sodastream fittings the items below might be of interest to you:

These older type sodastream adapters are cheap and they have become quite common:

With that said if you have ever used one of these you will know that they are a bit cubersome to use and you can loose some gas when connecting to your regulator so this new model is really the way to go:

Then if you want to refill your own cylinders we have made this device:

We also have these two types of hoses which will enable you to connect your sodastream machine to your large bulk cylinder so this is also a good option if you want to get rid of the small expensive bottle all together.
So we have this shorter hose which is a bit cheaper:

Then we also sell this longer hose if you want to put your cylinder slightly further away from your sodastream machine:

Then if you really want to put your sodastream machine a long way from the cylinder then you can use this long extension lead:

So when it comes to sodastream stuff we have a heap of optoins available and none of them are particularly expensive.

As long as you dont fill past the gross weight exactly as safe as them getting filled by the proprietor.

and how do you know you are near the gross weight with the sodastream cylinder positioned like that?

thats a good question, i personally use a filler with a braided hose and use a digital scale to fill by, this is the method that paintball range fillers use.,

These are perfectly safe to use provided that you follow the instructions:
1. Do not overfill the cylinder. You can check the tare weight of your empty cylinder then once it's full check the fill weight again. It's quite difficult to overfill using this decanting method. Overfilling is more of a risk if you are using a CO2 filling pump.
2. Each time you disconnect the cylinder make sure to open the bleed valve first
3. Fill in a well ventilated area. If you fill outside then this is the best option.
4. Wear gloves and safety specs
