    is sodastream post-mix any better?

  • danielh on 31/01/2024 - 14:26

    Been waiting for a 50% off deal for this in Coles. Wanting to try the Sodastream Pepsi Max Vanilla flavour. FYI this (and the Pepsi Mango) does not seem to be a flavour available in Woolworths right now.

      I liked the max over max vanilla.

    Each to their own, but I bought one of these and thought it tasted like absolute garbage. I gave it away. Interesting that the pepsi mixer I had (unsure about others) was made in Israel of all places!

      Sodastreams are manufactured in Israel, so it’s not surprising that their mixers are too

      I assume it is kosher then?

      Peach Ice Tea taste the same as the bottle. Just use it in still water, not sparkling.

      The only difference between the original Cola and the Pepsi is the logo. I swear it's the same recipe with the same extra fake artificial taste.

    Getting the soda strong enough is already a challenging part of soda stream jet. They say you need 3 presses for 1L bottle, but I do 7 to 8, 1.5 to 2 sec presses for a 500ml bottle to get it supermarket pepsi strength. Wondering if its just me or everybody or if I am doing something wrong.

    • photonbuddy on 31/01/2024 - 15:41

      You need to be using ice-cold water for best results. The pinnacle is seeing ice generated on the nozzle when you fizz.

      Also, after each press, title the bottle out to release the gas in the top of the bottle. The burp/hissing sound comes when the pressure reaches a set pressure, and pressing the button further adds little gas to the water.

      I noticed, sadly, that the newer units no longer burp, rather just makes a rather disappointing, and hard to differentiate hissing sound.

      • John Doh on 31/01/2024 - 16:31

        Mine burps. So how many 2 second presses do you think are required for a litre bottle?

        • photonbuddy on 31/01/2024 - 16:52

          Shouldn't take too many. I haven't used a standard 60L canister for years though. The lower the gas, the more presses. With a fully recharged 6Kg bottle, I get the burp almost instantly. After a couple of hundred bottles, it takes considerably more.

          Make sure your bottle isn't leaking. Check there are no small bubbles when you first put your water in the machine.

          • John Doh on 31/01/2024 - 16:57

            @photonbuddy: Ah I get what you mean by burp. Saw a video. Mine does not! No leaks anywhere, will try with cold water next. Thanks.

            • photonbuddy on 31/01/2024 - 20:16

              @John Doh:

              Ah I get what you mean by burp. Saw a video

              Yes. Nice and loud and very obvious. The new ones are pathetic, and much more difficult to pick-up.

              will try with cold water next.

              The colder the better. Don't just use fridge-cold water. Try putting it in the freezer (not the SodaStream bottle!) until you're getting ice crystals forming in the bottle.

      • outlander on 31/01/2024 - 18:00

        I don't agree with your burping philosophy, unless your trying to displace air from the bottle, in which case youd only need to do it once.

        If you want to speed it up, shake it, then add the gas, then shake it again.

        • photonbuddy on 31/01/2024 - 20:13

          I don't agree with your burping philosophy, unless your trying to displace air from the bottle, in which case youd only need to do it once.

          The burp occurs when the pressure in the top of the bottle reaches a set amount. Once you get the burp, if you continue pressing the button, you just get more burps as it releases pressure. This is what causes the burp.

          Having 10+ years of SodaStream experience, trust me on this.

          If you want to speed it up, shake it, then add the gas, then shake it again.

          Are you suggesting that to get a better fizz, one should shake the bottle, add gas, shake the bottle, add gas?

          • outlander on 31/01/2024 - 20:29

            @photonbuddy: Ah okay. Sounded like you meant you partially removed the bottle to let the gas out.

            Are you suggesting that to get a better fizz, one should shake the bottle, add gas, shake the bottle, add gas?

            Yep. Sounds weird, because if you shake softdrink then open them they explode right? But in essence it's just like mixing any two substances, so it makes sense the more you agitate the mixture the faster they combine. I have the same setup that I posted a deal about many years ago, and it has a pressure gauge, and you can watch the needle go down the more you shake (at least until the point it reaches equilibrium and no more gas can be dissolved), and then go back up once you stop.

            • photonbuddy on 31/01/2024 - 21:32

              @outlander:

              Sounded like you meant you partially removed the bottle to let the gas out.

              You don't have to remove the bottle - well not in the base models. Just tilt the bottle back and all the gas in the top of the bottle escapes. Then you can add more gas, because the pressure relief valve has closed.

              But in essence it's just like mixing any two substances, so it makes sense the more you agitate the mixture the faster they combine.

              That may be true for 2 liquids, but if you shake the bottle, the gas comes out of the liquid.

              However, if you say this works for you, more power to you. I know the tilt and fizz method gets an extremely fizzy drink.

    I used to love their non-diet raspberry flavour as a treat every now and then, but they changed the recipe, and made it not so yummy.

    I use the Diet-Rite and Aldi flavours now. The 9:1 ratio means they mix perfectly in the bottle - unlike the Cottee's 7:1 - so a quick 1L is easy. Much cheaper as well.

    • FredAstair on 31/01/2024 - 22:39

      have you tried the diet lime?

      • photonbuddy on 01/02/2024 - 09:31

        Yes. I have stocks of most flavours. My fav is the Apple Blackcurrant, but I like a bit of variety.

        • FredAstair on 01/02/2024 - 10:26

          and did you like it¿

          ooh.. blackcurrent. sounds fab

            @FredAstair: Yes.

            The Apple-Blackcurrant tastes great. At $3.50 a bottle, it's a no brainer to have them in the pantry.

            Back when Cottee's was 9:1, whenever they had a half price deal on, I'd have 30 bottle delivered!!

    I find most of these branded flavours have a nasty aftertaste or don't taste close enough to their original for my liking. I've pretty much reverted to just buying the 1.25l bottles of the proper softdrink as most of the time when you do the cost differential, it comes out about the same. If you're looking for a decent flavouring for your Sodastream bubbled water, I'd recommend grabbing Bickfords or Belvoir Farm cordials.

      If you drink lots of soft drink, you can get the price down very cheap. 10+ years in, I pay $50 for a 6KG refill/swap, which gives over 600 bottles of water.
