How a sparkling water maker with no electricity works
The Indigo Soda sparkling water maker runs solely on the CO2 in the cylinder: no outlet or batteries needed. You can set it up on any flat, stable surface in the kitchen, or take it to the cottage.
Simply fill your bottle with cold water, attach it to the machine, and press. You choose the level of carbonation to your liking.
A sparkling water maker designed for the Classic Twist cylinder
Our machine works with the Classic Twist CO2 cylinder, the purple model that screws in thanks to its TR21-4 thread. The turquoise Easy Connect cylinder, designed for Quick Connect machines, does not fit.
Once empty, the cylinder can be exchanged at one of our 2,500 exchange points across Canada, from $12.50 plus tax. For 60 litres of sparkling water, that works out to just over $0.20 per litre, with no single-use plastic bottles. Prefer delivery? The Plan Bulle ships your refills at the frequency of your choice.

Does the Indigo Soda sparkling water maker require a power supply?
Yes. The Indigo Soda sparkling water machine works without electricity, batteries or a power cord. It uses only the CO2 in the cylinder to carbonate your water when you press the button.

What type of CO2 cylinder is the machine compatible with?
The Indigo Soda sparkling water machine uses purple Classic Twist CO2 cylinders, which screw into the machine using a TR21-4 thread.
Turquoise Easy Connect CO2 cylinders are not compatible with the Indigo Soda machine. They are designed for machines with a Quick Connect system.
To understand the differences between these two cylinder types, see our guide to choosing the right CO2 cylinder for your sparkling water machine.
Can anything other than water be carbonated with the machine?
No. The Indigo Soda sparkling water machine is designed to carbonate cold, plain water only. Do not carbonate juice, wine, sugary drinks or water that already contains syrup or flavourings.
To make flavoured sparkling water, carbonate the water first, then add syrups, juice, fruit or flavourings directly to your glass.
