canned gas

[bruno]

I don't like topping off with water or deluting my wine with commercial store bought wines. I was thinking of using canned gas. Does anyone know where you can buy this in small spray-type cans? And what type of gas?

You can get CO2 cartridges and the right dispenser would work. I'm not sure it comes in a spray can.

I might have answered my own question; check this out: http://www.winelife.com/index.htm
Has anyone ever tried this? I just placed an order.

Sounds expensive. the CO2 cartridges are pretty cheap compared. Let us know how it works.

Make your own !!!

Look at my article about making sparkling lemonade:
http://wijnmaker.blogspot.com/2007/06/zelf-frisdrank-maken.html

So put a lot of baking soda (costs next to nothing) and acid (citric, tartaric, malic or even lemon juice) in a bottle and attach a tube to it.

This is one of the stories coming up on my web-log in the future so
I just spilled the fun !!!!
