@acarson @DevilsChild1978 getting started might seem a bit more expensive, because you do need to get the machine, your first CO2 canister, and at least one bottle, but you can get a starter kit that might save you a little too. I saw a kit on amazon for $93.60 that you get a machine, one bottle, one CO2 canister, an a flavored bubble drops to get you started. you can also look at sodastream to see what they might have for starter kits. the machine I got, and bottle I got were used, but that is ok, it at least got me started.
