Operating Instructions
for Soda Plus
Thank you for choosing Soda Plus, a genuinely
versatile and high quality-carbonating device. With
Soda Plus you can create a multitude of fizzy cold
drinks for your home use. Use pure water or any
mixtures with syrups, juices, wine etc. and you can
even add ice cubes and carbonate it all together inside
the Soda Plus. Please note, that only liquids with
moderate amounts of ice that can float freely inside
the liquid may be used, please use edible mixtures with
high water content only (DO NOT fill in any pulpy or
thick sauces or creams or any non food substances).
The beautiful stainless steel bottle perfectly fits onto the
dinner table, bar or you take it along for tracking or
picnic. Please read the instructions thoroughly before
using the first time!
Instructions for use
lW
Bottle Dishwasher Safe
Please read these instructions carefully and keep them
for further reference. Prior to first use rinse the bottle
and parts with fresh water.
1. Please firmly insert the measuring tube/filling aid into
the bottleneck and fill with cold water (or juice, add
syrup, wine or other liquid mixtures and add ice
cubes etc.). Please note that the liquid should be cold .
The device must not be used with warm or hot liquids.
Please do not fill with liquid creamy or thick liquid
ingredients. Fill until the liquid becomes visible at the
bottom of the funnel. After filling please remove the
measuring tube, now you should see the correct
filling level as shown in picture 3.
2. The max filling capacity is 1.2 lit/1 .27 US-qt /40.6 US-oz.
3. Screw the head on firmly (please avoid cross
threading by turning the head in a straight position)
but do not use excessive force . Place a C02 8g Soda
charger in holder. For guaranteed quality, please use
original C02 Soda chargers only.
4. Screw the holder with the charger onto the head until
the gas is released with a hissing sound . Charge
with 1 charger, if certain mixtures require more fizz
you may add a second charger. Please shake device
well after each charger! The button on the head will
pop out indicating that you have pressurized the Soda
Plus.
5. Shake the Soda Splash 10-15 times to mix the gas
well with the liquid. Remove the charger holder and
dispose of charger, chargers can be recycled as pure
steel.
6. Let the Soda Plus rest 3-5 minutes (if you are
carbonating wine into sparkling wine, put the
pressurized Soda Plus. into the refrigerator for a
few hours to achieve finer bubbles and stronger
carbonation), then press the button to release the
excessive pressure. The gas will escape on the side
of the head and can be cold, therefore please do not
block the hole with your hand and do not point at
eyes, face or other body parts to avoid uncomfortable
cooling of the skin by the cold gas or an occasional
spray of liquid .
7. Remove the head, slowly pour the carbonated drink
and enjoy.
8. Please use the cap to keep the fizz inside the bottle
and store in refrigerator.
9. Note that after some time or after storage, some
pressure will build inside the bottle, therefore slowly
unscrew head or cap to allow pressure to escape.
Helpful hints
1. To get a better result, please cool the Soda Plus
well under cold water or in the refrigerator before filling.
Do not use the device with warm or hot liquids!
2. Shake the Soda Plus well after filing and
pressurizing, it will result in better carbonation.
3. The longer you let the pressurized liquid rest inside
the Soda Plus (max 24 hours), the better the
carbonation will be.
4. Please do not use with creamy or thick liquids!
Some mixtures, such as sirups or Juices with high
sugar content or flat beer or soda which you want to
fizz up again will create much foam inside the Soda
Plus. Please let such ingredients rest for about 3 to
5 min after pressurizing and then carefully and slowly
press the button intermittently (pointing the exhaust
hole away from face or body) to avoid that the foam
sprays out throiugh the exhaust hole. If such spraying
still appears, please place a kitchen towel at the hole
to absorb the drops or foam of the liquid.
5. For repairs always return the entire unit (head plus
bottle and charger holder). For spare parts, please
contact your dealer directly.
Troubleshooting
The charger is not pierced open:
An unsuitable charger has been used or charger was
inserted incorrectly. Use original C02 Soda chargers
and place it in the charger holder as shown in Fig. 3.
You have not pressed the button, nevertheless,
pressure (and/or liquid) sprays out of the exhaust hole :
a) You have over filled the Soda Plus or used too
many chargers, or the content has warmed up after
pressurizing, so the built in safety valve has opened
and is releasing excessive pressure.
This will automatically stop after the correct pressure
has been reached, but if you want you can also press
the button to accelerate the process.
b) The pressure release button is damaged . Send the
appliance to your dealer.
When the charger is being screwed in, gas escapes
between the bottle and the head:
a) The head gasket is missing. Insert a head gasket
(0-ring) in the head.
b) The head gasket is damaged. Insert a new gasket
(0-ring).
c) The head is not screwed on firmly enough. Screw the
head onto the bottle firmly in accordance with the
instructions for use.
d) The upper edge of the bottleneck, or the head is
damaged. Send appliance to your dealer.
Content is not fizzy after carbonation :
a) The Soda Plus was not shaken firmly or often
enough. Carbonize again and shake firmly.
b) The Soda Plus was overfilled. Always observe that
there is enough space left above the filling level, it is
needed to allow the C02 gas to go into the bottle and
to mix well with the liquid when you shake it.
c) The content requires more chargers than one.
Use a second charger to get a stronger fizz. Please
remember to shake well after EACH charger, do not
use 2 chargers in a row without shaking in between!
Safety Instructions

reference to avoid any improper handling or
operating. This Soda Plus is designed exclusively
for the purposes specified in this manual. Only use
for normally drinkable liquids and maybe add small
amounts of ice. The device must not be used with

ingredients. This unit is designed for commonly used
carbonated drinks with high water content, and is for
home use only!
2. The Soda Plus and the charger are pressure
containers which require increased attention and
care.
3. Please note the safety instructions for chargers on
the charger packaging.
4. Keep original C02 Soda chargers and the Soda
Plus out of the reach of children.
5. For safety reasons, do not bend or lean over the
Soda Plus when screwing in the charger with the
charger holder.
6. The Soda Plus head screws easily onto the bottle
in an up right (straight) position. Do not cross-thread
by tilting the head which could cause great danger.

completely escaped. Press the release button until
the hissing sound stops.

Soda Plus to heat (stove, sunlight, oven,
microwave, etc.).Do not store the Soda Plus or

not to point the exhaust hole in the direction of your
or others eyes or bodyparts, because gas or liquid
might spray out with force and cause irritation,
injury or damage.

aware that the charger might be very cold, therefore
do not touch it with bare fingers or body parts.
14. Before unscrewing the head of the Soda Plus,
always press the release button to depressurize the
bottle. After time or storage with the head or the cap
screwed onto the bottle, there will always build up
some pressure from C02 that is released from the
liquid content, therefore slowly unscrew head or cap
to allow pressure to escape via the threads, just like
you do with other soda bottles.
15. Do not attempt to disassemble the release button or
gas inlet valve, these parts are NOT for disassembly!
The only removable parts are the head, the cap the
measuring tube and the charger holder.

pressing the release button or slowly unscrewing cap,
until no more gas is discharged.
