FAQs
Are these cylinders compatible with all soda makers?
They are compatible with Drinkmate systems and many standard soda makers that use the common screw-in CO2 cylinder format, including most standard SodaStream models.
How do I know when the cylinder is empty?
You will notice a significant decrease in the carbonation level even when the activation button is pressed for the standard duration.
Is the CO2 food-grade?
Yes, these cylinders are filled with high-quality, food-grade CO2 suitable for safe beverage consumption.
Can I store these cylinders in the refrigerator?
It is not recommended to store CO2 cylinders in the refrigerator or freezer, as extreme cold can affect the valve seal and performance.
How should I dispose of an empty cylinder?
Consult your local recycling guidelines, as these aluminum cylinders are often recyclable once empty.
Does the 60L capacity guarantee 60 litres of soda?
The 60L capacity is an estimate based on standard carbonation levels; actual yield depends on how much gas you inject into each litre.
Troubleshooting
Carbonator produces little or no fizz
Verify the cylinder is fully screwed into the receiver and check if the cylinder is empty by weighing it.
Difficulty threading the cylinder into the machine
Ensure the cylinder is aligned perfectly straight with the receiver before rotating; do not force if resistance is felt.
Gas leaking during installation
Unscrew the cylinder immediately and inspect the rubber gasket in the soda maker receiver for debris or tears.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install a new cylinder, simply remove the protective cap, tilt your soda maker, and screw the cylinder into the threaded receiver until it is secure but not overtightened. Ensure the device is placed on a flat, stable surface during installation. For care, store cylinders in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme heat sources. Never store cylinders in a vehicle or environment exceeding 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Always check the thread integrity before installation and discard any cylinder that shows visible signs of deep scratching or physical damage to the valve assembly.
