The AARKE Carbonator III is a sleek and functional soda maker designed for home use. This Matte Black appliance, measuring 16.3 inches high, 6 inches wide, and 10.2 inches deep, allows you to effortlessly transform still water into sparkling beverages. It comes with one PET bottle and an instruction manual, and is compatible with 60L (425 g) CO2 cylinders from all major brands, including Sodastream, AGA, and Linde.
Check the CO2 cylinder compatibility; newer models use a proprietary 'Quick Connect' pink cylinder, while older ones use the universal blue screw-in cylinder. Glass carafes are more hygienic and don't expire, unlike plastic bottles. Available from $250.
Manual soda makers use no electricity. The ongoing costs are CO2 gas cylinder refills and flavor syrups, which dictate whether it actually saves you money over buying canned soda.
