Sparkling Water Making Kit for Homemade Seltzer & Carbonated Waters — Soda Stream Alternative
This home carbonating kit allows you to carbonate any beverage of your choice. Make your own sparkling water, soda, seltzer water, juice, beer or almost any other beverage you can think of using the sleek 2 liter Stainless Steel Handled-Growler.
The kit is fully assembled and Includes:
- 2 Liter Stainless Steel Growler with Handle and Travelling Cap
- Draft Faucet and Carbonating Top Included
- 5 lb. CO2 Tank (shipped empty)
- Dual gauge Taprite CO2 regulator
- Gas Hose with Ball Lock Disconnect
Carboating sodas, seltzers, and any other beverage at home is extremely easy with this setup! Everything you need to get started is included in this kit (all you need to do is get the CO2 tank filled - They ship empty by law).
How to make homemade sparkling water:
- Fill your stainless steel growler with about 3/4 (1500ML) or a little more (you just need to leave a couple of inches of airspace), and screw on the top assembly.
Make sure the liquid is ice cold, this will help speed up the process of carbonating. CO2 absorbs into cold liquids much better than warm or room temp.
- Set the pressure on your regulator to about 15PSI.
- Attach the ball lock disconnect to the gas-in post.
- Pull the pressure relief valve a few times. This will purge out the oxygen inside the mini keg and replace it with CO2.
- Increase the pressure on your regulator to 30-35 PSI and begin shaking the growler. You will hear the CO2 forcing itself into the growler.
- Do this for about 1 minute and your carbonated beverage is ready to enjoy!
Use in conjunction with our Soda Extract Flavors, or use your own soda recipe. We often use it around here to make sparkling water.
On average, customers report getting about 180 carbonated liters from a 20 oz CO2 bottle (this kit comes with a 5 lb CO2 Tank, so you will be able to carbonate much more!).
NOTE: The bottle in the photo is for illustration only, it is not included. Just use a standard 1 or 2-liter storebought soda bottle.

This is also great for carbonating sodas, and making your own homemade Topo Chico and other flavor-infused bubbble waters!
Mini Keg Dimensions:
- 8.5" Tall X 5.25" Diameter (capped growler only)
- 13.6" Tall to top of the black handle
How to make homemade Sparkling Water & Seltzers in the SS Growler
Using the all-new stainless steel vessels to make your sparkling water and seltzers is a little different than using the traditional 2L soda bottle with carbonation cap, but easier with multiple advantages! Unlike the soda bottles with carbonation caps that need to be removed to pour your beverage out, the SS growlers are outfitted with a draft faucet which allows you to simply pour exactly how much you want at any given time. This also keeps all the pressure inside the container, keeping your carbonation levels as high as possible. When you remove the carbonation cap on the plastic bottles, all that pressure inside the bottle escapes, and you begin to lose some carbonation. So in the long run, these stainless steel soda makers will help keep your carbonation levels higher for the life of the liquid in the growler, as well as save you CO2!
By following the steps seen in our video below, you'll be able to make your own soda or bubble water at home, quickly and easily.

Great Product! No hassle and as described February 6, 2020
By Mike Y
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!

Worth the money as it's well made January 14, 2023
By Ed
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
