thevalerieleigh Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 I've been using a guy in GDL the last year or so to refill my Soda Stream CO2 tanks but this last go around was a little rough. Took 3 trips to GDL to hook up with him and get them refilled. Lots of excuses! So...with that said, I'm wondering if anyone has a local person who is re-filling the CO2 tanks. Thanks, Valerie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mint Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 I did it through the sodastream helpline, cost $200 mx though the gas seems weaker than the original... If you find someone let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go Solar Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 New soft drink CO2 making system, with no tanks to use or refill: http://bonneo.ca/ Available via HBC (Hudson's Bay Company) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jome Posted December 6, 2018 Report Share Posted December 6, 2018 They use carbonators - same idea, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordtruckman Posted December 6, 2018 Report Share Posted December 6, 2018 Yes, it uses CO2 cartridges. Amazon México delivers. I use a stainless steel rechargeable seltzer bottle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngusMactavish Posted December 6, 2018 Report Share Posted December 6, 2018 I use a carbonator cap and and save a ton of money doing so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILLIN Posted December 6, 2018 Report Share Posted December 6, 2018 If I bought another CO2 tank, I would be tempted to make draft beer again - not good for the waistline. Soda Stream has been bought out by either Pepsico or Coca Cola, so they must have some big plans for this company. Selling healthier flavor syrups, refill cartridges and the like. Would be good for Mexico to wean them off their Coca Cola, Squirt and Pepsi addictions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joy fdez Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 Hi! Valerie, im looking for someone who can refill my sodastream in Guadalajara, Could you please tell me where does this guy is so I can take my tank? I know he is not the best but the Sodastream service is extremely slow and they wont give you any feedback of your order. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thevalerieleigh Posted May 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 Hi Joy, I found a new guy, I'll see if I can find his card. But, here's how to get to his taller. Go to GDL on the Chapala-GDL Carretera, take Lazaro Cardeñas until you see the exit for Mercado de Abastos. Sometimes the signs are hidden by the trees but it's before the golden arches. Once you exit, you'll be on a lateral for just a moment. Stay in your left lane and take a left at the traffic light. Go under the Lazaro Cardeñas bridge and continue driving straight. You'll pass through the very busy Mercado de Abastos. As you're leaving the Mercado area (about 8 blocks), you'll see a small park on the left. Take a left at the next traffic light. Pass the park (now on your left) and take an immediate left onto a small one way street. You'll see his taller on your right. There are other tanks and canisters generally lined up in front of his business. He charges $100 pesos to re-fill the larger Soda Stream canister. I usually take 3 at a time and return on my next GDL visit to pick them up. I always keep 1 full so I'm never without. OK, found his card. ERGED is the name of his business, he's J.Eduardo Martinez Aguero. Address is: Bellota #1795 Local 27, GDL His phone number is 333-563-4274 and his email is: erged2002@yahoo.com.mx Hope this helps and tell him Val & John from Ajijic say "hi." Salud, Val Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chop Posted June 7, 2022 Report Share Posted June 7, 2022 I see that there are tank adapters on Mercado Libre (there are also Soda Stream canisters available too). Anyone aware of someone locally that has a C02 tank that could fill? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
