Does the steel version collect fingerprints- does this need to be wiped regularly then?

[@Benevolence133]

No, actually it’s really good in that regard. Because to make soda, you don’t need to touch the machine, except the lever. Only when you exchange the cartridge you have to pick it up of course. Rarely ever you’ll need to wipe it off because of fingerprints it’s more due to dust.

Thanks!

[@Benevolence133]

No problem!

How long does a canister last you on average? How many canisters do you need per month? How many people are you using this for?

[@Benevolence133]

We use on average one bottle per day. It lasts 5-6 weeks. I hope this helps you.

[@cavazosking]

@@Benevolence133 how many people are drinking with you on that one bottle? How many squeezes of co2 do you use per bottle?

[@Benevolence133]

​@@cavazosking As demonstrated in the video, we use a single squeeze. Although these bottles are rated for 60L, in practice, the way we use them typically covers about 40L to 45L. Hope this clarifies things!

[@cavazosking]

@Benevolence133 yes, it does. Thank you?

[@cavazosking]

How good is the fizz on one squeeze if you had to rate it taste wise? Is it simply ok, medium, or high? Or is it like a pelligrino or topo Chico?
