Finally we have the Sodastream Duo, the only difference here is that it works with both glass bottles and plastic. Once again, a personal preference. When it comes to bottles, I recommend the 500ml bottle which you can take with you on the go. I find that pouring the sparkling water from the bottle it comes with into a bottle I can easily carry around with me usually loses the fizz. The three-year lifecycle gives SodaStream bottles a far smaller carbon footprint than buying bottled sparkling water every week.

Fizzability We rate each machine for how easy it is to get to a good level of fizziness compared with bottled sparkling water. The Sodastream One touch is basically exactly the same in design except it's electric and there are 3 buttons on the top instead of one.There ‘on the go’ bottles can be used to create the soda and is the perfect shape for keeping in that fizz.

Are Sodastream eco friendly?

Considering you won’t be using single use bottles. Sodastream is a very sustainable alternative for all your soda needs. You can even buy smaller bottles for on the go here. How long does it take till my sparkling water goes flat? The SodaStream bottles themselves won't last forever, as subjecting them to repeated use as pressurised containers over a long period of time causes inevitable wear and tear. This means you'll need to replace the bottles after roughly three years. About 2 weeks if you have the lid on and keep it in the fridge. Can sodastream be used for carbonating wine or juice? Keep in mind that sodastream doesn’t just provide you with cheaply made sparkling water. You can also flavour your soda with a variety of different syrups and cordials. Sodastream has their own line of flavoured syrups but you can pour just about any syrup you want into your sparkling water.SodaStream and other sparkling water gas cylinders all claim to make 60 litres of sparkling water, but this will vary depending on how fizzy you like your beverages.

If you're wondering which Sodastream to buy, then my recommendation is the sodastream spirit . Which if you’re in America is this one.

Once you’ve carbonated your water, you can add fruity flavour with a SodaStream concentrate (so you can enjoy your favourite fizzy drinks for less), cordial, or freshly squeezed lemon, lime or grapefruit juice.The Sodastream genesis works pretty much exactly like the original. The difference between the Sodastream Genesis and other Sodastreams, is the way it looks. Many of us probably still buy plastic bottles of sparkling water at the supermarket. But with the worldwide concerns over plastic pollution, there’s never been a better time to ‘get busy with the fizzy’ and buy a SodaStream drinks maker to make your own and stop adding to that plastics mountain. The Duo comes with two glass bottles and two reusable, BPA-free plastic bottles with a cap to keep in the fizz.
