There’s nothing like sipping a freshly made carbonated drink when you’re looking to kick it back and relax at home. For those that aren’t true connoisseurs of carbonated drinks, carbonated beverages are basically drinks that contain dissolved CO2. Now, what makes carbonated drinks so enjoyable and refreshing is none other than the fizzy sensation that comes with these bubbly beverages. That’s basically because the carbon dioxide that’s used to prepare these fuzzy liquid refreshments greatly helps to bring a slightly different taste and a freshening sensation to your drink of choice. That said, this next kitchen gizmo is the perfect tool for those who enjoy having fresh carbonated drinks at home but have no easy way to prepare them. Meet the Drinkmate Arctic Blue Sparkling Water & Soda Maker.
The Drinkmate Arctic Blue Sparkling Water & Soda Maker is a compact kitchen countertop carbonation machine that can carbonate just about any drink you desire.
What makes the Drinkmate such a unique countertop carbonation machine (which, at the time or writing, is currently rated top 2 on the market of home carbonation systems) is the fact that while almost all other home carbonation systems are limited to carbonating water, the Drinkmate can actually carbonate anything. That’s right!
Working based on its patented and detachable Fizz infuser and dual-stage valve system, the Drinkmate can ultimately offer you a better control on release of CO2 than when compared to most standard home carbonation systems available on the market.
On top of that, this compact at-home beverage carbonator device is also super easy to operate, and also very easy to clean. And to top it off, the Drinkmate doesn’t even require electricity or batteries in order to work and do its carbonation magic, which means that you can literally take it with you anywhere, whether you’re going on a business trip, a nice week vacation or a weekend camping outdoors, or anything else in between.
On a side note, I’d also like to mention that this Arctic Blue color-model is a Limited-Edition of the standard Drinkmate Sparkling Water and Soda Maker, which we’ve already reviewed here at GadgetGram.
Now, let’s have a more detailed look at this kitchen countertop carbonation machine and check out exactly how the Drinkmate is designed to work and also see everything that it has to offer you.
DESIGN & SPECS
Starting with the Drinkmate’s size, this kitchen countertop carbonation machine comes at a very compact size, measuring just 8 inches long by 5 inches wide by 16 inches tall. Thanks to its slim body, the Drinkmate has a reasonably small footprint, which ultimately allows you to save a reasonable amount of space within your kitchen countertop.
Furthermore, the Drinkmate also features a very simple and minimalist design, which allows this carbonation machine to easily blend in with your kitchen countertop as well as with the rest of your kitchenware.
Now, as said before, this beverage carbonator works based on its patented and detachable Fizz infuser and dual-stage valve system, which ultimately offer you a better control on release of CO2 than when compared to most standard home carbonation systems available on the market, and obviously, than when using any lower-end carbonator machines as well, as the Drinkmate is just a much higher-end carbonator than any budget option out there.
With that said, it’s worth mention that the Drinkmate also comes together with an included 14.5 oz (60 liter) starter CO2 carbonator, which basically means that you can start using it right away to carbonate any beverage of your preference.
Not only that, but it’s also worth noting that this awesome beverage carbonator also works with the most common brands of 14.5 oz (60 L) CO2 carbonators on the market, so even if you need any extra carbonator charges for it, you’re always good to go, knowing that you can pick up just about any 14.5 oz (60 L) CO2 carbonator from known and trustworthy brands, whether that’s from Drinkmate itself, or from a different brand, if you so prefer.
Thanks to this innovative design, this sleek and high-end home carbonation system also requires no electricity or batteries to work, which means that you can conveniently set up the Drinkmate Sparkling Beverage Maker just about anywhere in the house, and you can also take it with you anywhere, whether that’s on a business trip, on your next vacation, or even to a camping trip while you’re exploring the outdoors.
Thanks to its powerless design, all you really have to do to use this beverage carbonator is to install the included 14.5 oz (60 liter) starter CO2 carbonator to the unit’s dual-stage valve system, and then just press a single button at the top of the unit to easily and very conveniently carbonate any beverage(s) of your choice.
Lastly, the Drinkmate Sparkling Beverage Maker also comes together with a Reusable 1L BPA-Free Quick-Connect Carbonating Bottle that also integrates a volume mark line, which you can use to easily prepare your carbonated drinks with the exact volume measurements that you prefer.
