The Aarke Carbonator Pro in Sand is a manual sparkling water maker designed around a dishwasher-safe glass bottle and Aarke's one-handed Push-to-Lock system. Place the 800ml Glass Bottle Pro in the chamber, press the cover down until it locks, then use the lever to carbonate chilled water. The bottle has a 700ml filling line, and the machine needs no electricity, making it suitable for a dedicated counter position without adding another cable or plug.

The body is built in stainless steel, while the enclosed bottle chamber and automatic reveal mechanism give the Pro a different workflow from Aarke's screw-in PET-bottle Carbonator 3. It uses standard 400–425g / 60L screw-in CO2 cylinders approved for sparkling water makers and excludes SodaStream Quick Connect cylinders. One compatible cylinder can carbonate up to 60 litres, depending on carbonation level and use.

Key Features

Push-to-Lock Carbonation

The bottle sits inside the protective chamber and locks into place when the cover is pressed down. Carbonation is controlled manually with the lever, and the chamber rises to reveal the bottle when the cycle is complete.

Dishwasher-Safe Glass Bottle

The dedicated Glass Bottle Pro can be placed in the dishwasher, simplifying everyday cleaning. Its 800ml total capacity uses a 700ml marked fill line for carbonation.

How It Compares

Compared with Carbonator 3, the Carbonator Pro uses a glass bottle and one-handed Push-to-Lock chamber instead of a screw-in PET bottle. It is also the larger and heavier of Aarke's two manual carbonation formats.
