Sodastream gas for serving

[Mash Monster]

I'd be interested to know if, with the RPV, opening the valve allows any CO2 out. Thanks

FYO
Yes gas does come out when RPV is fitted

Watch this video if you haven't seen it



from about 4 min 55 they talk about the valve in the Sodastream canisters. Might be useful info re your normal cylinder.

Yep it’s the valve in the main cylinder that’s the concern though

Yes noticed you were talking about that but I wondered whether this was basically the same.

I bought a cheap one off amazon but it didnt last long before it leaked and it always made me very nervous. I replaced it with one from CO2Supermarket - LINK which so far has been great. I would spend the extra money on a good one, especially if you plan to use it a lot.

CO2 Supermarket stuff is excellent. I have been using a Sodastream to standard regulator adapter from them for some time, and it is a really well made piece of kit.

Do your donor cylinders have a RPV fitted ?

No. I am not filling cylinders - the adapter I have connects a Sodastream cylinder to a standard regulator, and has its own shut off valve.
