It is always a challenge for those who want to buy an appliance, given the variety on the market for each type of appliance. The same applies to the soda maker (a saturator or carbonator).
It is a small appliance that makes the water from the tap sparkle. Have you decided to buy one but want to know more to understand better which one to opt for?
Here is a practical and fast guide showing you how to choose a performing soda maker.
Soda maker: types?
Suitable for all lovers of bubbles, the soda maker not only serves to make the water sparkling and better than bottled ones (since it infuses larger bubbles into the water), but it also serves to make excellent drinks!
There are several models:
-
- Without energy
- Electric
- Battery operated
The professional ones connect directly to the sink.
Whatever the model, the soda maker works thanks to cartridges, which introduce carbon dioxide into the liquid.
The manual saturator allows you to carbonate only 1 liter of water simultaneously, while the automatic saturator allows continuous delivery. What an electric soda maker consumes ranges from 100W to 200W (this depends on the size of the appliance).
Soda Maker: Why buy it?
To make such a purchase, you must love sparkling water; it is far from a useful expense.
Here are some advantages:
- Cost savings: You save a lot with a soda maker compared to the continuous purchase of bottled sparkling water.
- Comfort and safety: producing sparkling water by itself is very convenient (it avoids the great efforts to bring water boxes home) and safe, unlike the bottles of water we buy at the supermarket.
- Takes up little space.
- Fewer bacteria in water: carbon dioxide inhibits the development of bacteria, thus making the water that comes out of our system.
You have to carefully evaluate the spaces in the kitchen to decide which model to choose.
Soda Maker: How to use it
An optimal result is obtained if the raw material is optimal! So, make sure that the water from the tap is good, drinkable, and fresh (it is recommended to put it in a few hours before carbonating in the fridge).
The appliance’s power and ability to choose the carbonation mode according to your tastes and needs are of considerable importance.
Although sometimes not much attention is paid, bottling is also essential, and the place is well cleaned, so as not to contaminate the water.
