Luxury Models Of Home Water Carbonating Machines
There are a lot of machines that can be built in to your kitchen, either with or without a cooling system. Those without a cooling system usually give too lightly carbonated water for most people, so it is advisable to test any unit properly before buying one, or the risk of disappointment is quite high.
Machines with cooling systems really are professional devices. The machine is hooked in to the cold water mains, and released through a tap, meaning there is always carbonated water available. Because carbonation happens in-line, all the carbonic acid stays in the water and these machines use less acid. You can even set the level of carbonation yourself, sometimes directly on the tap.
The best thing about these machines is the possibility of using large canisters of carbonic acid. This means a significant price reduction, about four cents per litre. Depending on consumption and model, a machine like this will pay for itself in less than four years.
But most people want a good-looking kitchen and it is not uncommon to spend twenty or thirty thousand Euros on a unit. A tap or a handle for cold carbonated water would increase the value of such a kitchen, and some people will even get a device just for the added luxury.
These are some links for different luxury models:
Some models have all the action happening inside a cabinet, with only the tap showing, but there are also stand-alone models where you hook in power, carbonic acid and water.
