Our take on the Aarke III Carbonator

The Aarke Carbonator III is a cordless, hand-operated sparkling water maker built around a stainless steel body. It uses no electricity or batteries: you press the lever to release CO2 from a standard 60L cylinder into the included PET bottle. Its main draw over SodaStream-style rivals is the all-metal, countertop-friendly design and the lack of a power cord. Reviewers praise the build and the look; some note the lever takes a firm push and that the bottle and CO2 cylinder are the recurring running costs.

Questions and answers

Does it need electricity or batteries?
No. It is fully manual and runs on CO2 cylinder pressure alone, so there is no cord or charging.
What CO2 cylinders does it take?
It works with standard 60L CO2 cylinders, the same type used by most soda makers. A cylinder is typically sold separately.
Can I carbonate juice or flavored drinks?
No. Carbonate plain water only, then add flavor afterward. Carbonating sugary or pulpy liquids can clog the valve.
What is in the box?
The carbonator unit and a PET bottle. Check the listing for whether a CO2 cylinder is included, since bundles vary.
How does it compare with SodaStream models?
It offers the same basic carbonation with a metal body and no power cord, but SodaStream machines often include flavor systems and snap-lock bottles.
How much water does the bottle hold?
The bottle holds about 800 ml, roughly 27 oz, which fills a few glasses.
