MYO Fizzy Water
We all know that drinking water from the tap is better for the environment than buying bottled. But what if you like the bubbly stuff?
Well, now you can make your own carbonated water with the Soda-Club home soda maker. Simply fill one of the supplied bottles from the tap (or a filter jug, if you prefer), place it in the machine, press the button a few times to add CO2, and voilà! Your water now sparkles.
The beauty is that you can add as much effervescence as you like. Granted, it won’t taste quite the same as a fancy frizzante naturale water imported from Italy, but it is cheaper, more convenient, and a lot better for the environment than buying it from the store. You can even add sweet syrups to make sodas.

This would be the best gift for a cousin of mine who feels sparkling water is an awesome complement to fine dining.
This thing looks dope.. i gotta get one for christmas
This is the best thing I have bought myself! We have had it a year and it is wonderful. I am buying it for my folks this year.
Thats pretty sick.. can you make mineral water?
I have one of these, and yes, you can make sparkling mineral water if you have mineral water already. We use our Ioseki water pitcher to mineralize our water and then carbonate it.
I also drink a huge amount of soda. I looked at the sodamaker but it was really expensive. I thought there has got to be a cheaper way. Finally I found plans to make a home made system that is WAY cheaper than the sodamaker -- I can make seltzer for less than 2 cents a liter! Here is where I found the <a href="http://www.makesodaandseltzer.com" >plans to build your own soda and seltzer system</a> in about 10 minutes for less than $100 bucks.

It's serving me well and I am making some delicious sodas! And I don't end up using all that plastic, or even worse, shipping all that water!

I tried going to the www.makesodaandseltzer.com site but their purchase link for their plan's not working. I was psyched to try making the contraption but can't without the plans.
