Aarke Carbonator 3, Sparkling Water Maker with Water Bottle, Steel Finish

Product Information

Because SodaStream models release a more consistent output of CO2 into the water, it's easier to control the carbonation level.

We found it’s much less messy than the SodaStream, which can sometimes send water flying when you remove the bottle. Our bottles have also been tested and approved according to the German LFGB standard, California Prop 65 and FDA CFR 21. The AWA Carbonator is a newly launched competitor with a sleeker matte plastic finish and chrome accents. The designer behind it, Søren Refsgaard, is known for his clean and functional design where all superfluous elements have been removed. Non-drip spout is designed for perfect pouring and easier serving, while the smooth-opening lid prevents hot water droplets from splashing off.It's definitely a step up from SodaStream's other models but still doesn't have quite the bold look of an Aarke. It is the essential source of information and ideas that make sense of a world in constant transformation. Controls and accessories: As we tested out the soda makers' various settings, we noted how simple it was to control the carbonation and select the mode you want. Developed to work perfectly with Aarke carbonators, the brand’s Flavour Drops come in a variety of flavours, like sweet Wild Strawberry and refreshing Cucumber and Lime. From in line carbonators for carbonating prior to direct filling into bottles, to in-bottle carbonators for a light (pétillant or frizzante) wine carbonation, we have a comprehensive range, including our own range of carbonators which we manufacture here at Vigo.

In our experience, Carbonation Techniques is a firm that can be relied upon – a rare thing in our experience in the bottling equipment supply industry! What makes the Stelton Brus exceptional is that it integrates beautifully into any countertop, thanks to functional, timeless Danish design with soft edges (not unlike bubbles). Not all soda makers are designed to carbonate beverages other than water, though, so be sure to check your product manual first. If the goal is a sturdier, better-looking carbonator than the cheapish, mostly plastic models, then you have some options.

But I do think it’s good to come up with ways to be more sustainable at home, if not only to feel better about yourself. As with our other sparkling water makers, Cobalt Blue has a seamless, stainless-steel enclosure, premium materials, overhauled internal safety valve system and a stainless-steel precision nozzle for a smooth, controlled spray beam. Both models are heavy-duty, commercial-grade products designed for everyday use, extremely reliable and easy to service.

And with multiple colours to choose from, there’s an option to sit proudly on every kitchen worktop. For this unit to work well the mains water pressure should be 10-15psi higher than your regulator set pressure (from step 4).

Then, like the civilized human being you are, you mix it with Campari and drink it (and then do that three or four more times before dinner). The design of the carbonator is so elegant that you will look forward to displaying it on the countertop. The Carbonator 3 is a groundbreaking sparkling water maker with a stainless-steel enclosure, coated in a timeless Matte White finish with a subtly warm-white tone.
