Customer Reviews - Soda Carbonating Kit - Taprite Regulator - 5 lb CO2 Tank

Loving this carbonation system. My sodastream died on me and I was tired of paying for their proprietary CO2 refills. I heard about making your own rig for seltzer, but I didn't want to deal with the hassle of ordering all the right parts and connecting it up (I am handy but totally new to carbonation). I went out searching for a "kit" that would have everything I need to start carbonating out of the box. It is a huge bonus that this product is already assembled. All parts are securely fitted together with the correct tubing and adapters. Other than the time it took to go to my local homebrew place to get a CO2 refill the set up was as simple as screwing the regulator onto the tank and I was good to go!

Quality is all there. Brand new tank as advertised. Taprite regulator, and everything is solid.

As far as price it is really not that much more than ordering the pieces a la carte and assembling yourself so there really no downside and you don't have to worry about sketchy quality components or getting the wrong or excess fittings.

I have had a great time carbonating all sorts of beverages and getting comfortable with the system in general. Since this product uses all universal components I can build off of it in the future. I am already looking at making a kegerator type set up for my seltzer!

The other reviewer here already said a lot of what needed to be sent but as it's two years old let me add to it.

This kit came perfectly assembled requiring only a few nuts to be tightened and the tank I got was new and recently tested so it will be good for 5 years at my local CO2 provider.

The stainless steel cap is high quality and the build quality is flawless.

This is a much better option than a soda stream as it's much cheaper to operate over time and your helping the environment but now using a bunch of those expensive soda stream cartridges

Yea, weird how THIS particular version of this website, of the dozen carbon copies, has its 5lb C02 tank $60-$80 more than the rest? ITS NOT BECAUSE IT'S PRE FILLED WITH C02 GAS!!!! BECAUSE IT'S EMPTY!!!!!!!!
