[SML] CO2 cylinder

[Dale Farmer]

I looked at sodastream.   Proprietary CO2 tank fittings, and not all 
that large of a capacity.  I looked at the adapters for refilling them 
from standard CO2 cylinders. Then I looked at the ingredients of the 
sodastream syrups.  Every single one of them I looked at contained 
artificial sweeteners. That pretty much made it a non-starter for me by 
itself.

What I did was  buy a couple of those old five gallon steel soda 
canisters, a standard CO2 cylinder, regulator and a couple of fittings 
and some tubing.   I now have effectively an infinite supply of seltzer 
water on tap.  I have to refill the tank every five gallons is all.   
Mostly I drink seltzer with lime juice, or if I want soda, I have 
bottles of soda syrup that I buy from the local Perkins restaurant 
superstore and mix up a fresh soda exactly as I want it.    Only 
drawback is the tanks are too bulky to fit in my fridge.  So I'm keeping 
my eye on craigslist for one of those chest freezers to convert to a 
soda fridge.
