Question: How much liquid can be carbonated with one co2 cartridge in the fizz giz?
Document: :)Regarding the one 2-star reviewer who says they couldn't get more than a mildly fizzy charge out of the Fizz Giz -- I had the same problem until I practiced a couple of times. Some tips:  Don't push too hard when you insert the Fizz Giz into the special cap. It only needs a little bit of pressure. Too much and it restricts the flow of CO2. Use cold liquid. Leave some air space in the bottle. If it's not fizzy enough, charge it again.
One 16-gram cartridge will carbonate three 20-oz soda bottles, two 1-liter bottles, or one 2-liter bottle. The level of fizziness is at least equal to store-bought soda, and no surprise because it is pressurized to the same value.We love it! Fizz Giz addresses all the shortcomings of other home carbonation systems that you will find in the reviews, and at a much better price!
Insert the CO2 cartridge, screw on the bottom and it is ready to go. I can put some juice or a powdered drink packet in a water bottle out of a machine and giz fizz it very easily. Its actually a little fun, just make sure you have your fizz giz cap on tight when you carbonate! The carbonation actually makes the flavored water taste different and you can control the intensity of the carbonation. Over the past week, I have found that I like some flavored waters more carbonated than others.
By the end of summer the system will have way more than paid for itself in savings on cartridge costs alone.The hose is a few feet long so I keep the system in one of my cupboards and whenever I need to use it I just grab the Fizz Giz and use it without moving the CO2 tank.
It is an add-on for the Fizz Giz that allows you to use a real tank of CO2 (not a cartridge) and attach it to your Fizz Giz. So I ordered one from him. Note that these are not on his fizzgiz.com website (as yet) so you have to contact him via his website and ask him for it. He custom makes them when you order one. I paid about $66, including shipping.
This comes with one 18g cartridge bulb so I didn't get to try it out much before this review. I found I wasn't doing a few things right but feel if I was it probably would of worked well. I am prematurely doing this review to warn you that this uses 16G cartridges not the 8G. So don't buy the combo - this kit and the 8 Gram Cartridge Bulbs like I did. Combos are put in place because a customer bought both in a purchase and it doesn't say they go together.
The fizz giz is a good product for those looking to carbonate their own drinks at a low cost.It's much better than buying a soda stream, or any other carbonate because it gives you access to cheap, easily found CO2 cartridges.It's a reliable sturdy product, that makes good carbonated drinks.
The Fizz Giz soda maker is the best deal out there. It is inexpensive, compact, easy, and effective! The reviews of all the other soda makers I researched complained about lack of fizz. There is no such problem with Fizz Giz.The carbonation kit consists of a hand-held carbonator using a readily available 16-gram CO2 cartridge, one cartridge, and 2 bottle caps with pressure valves. The elegant simplicity of the design is that the pressure vessel is any plastic soda bottle of any convenient size.
So it is also more economical over the long term.You will be much happier, much safer, and your Co2 will be much cheaper and last you a lot longer. And you will still have a better setup than buying any of the commercially available products out there.I converted this to a listmania post: http://www.amazon.com/lm/R2RVMM5BLNW1GY/
The system works very well, and Mike has a number of You-tube video's to help learn the procedures which are not difficult to master. To avoid the BPA contamination of plastic bottles, I store my carbonated liquid in recycled glass mineral bottles after Mike sent an email to his customers explaining the plastic bottle caps for the (PET) bottles that soda is sold in would work with them (his system includes modified caps).
Answer: That depends on how fizzy you want your water, Sherry.  When I first got mine I did the math and I think my cost with the small cartridges that go in the black banana thing was about a nickel a liter, but I also bought the home station kit and from the 20 oz paintball sized canister it is more like a two or three cents a liter.  I like mine really fizzy.
