Is burpi compatible with the new Soda Stream® Quick Connect machines?
Currently, Burpi cylinders are NOT compatible with the new Soda Stream Quick Connect machines that take a PINK Soda Stream cylinder (but...we will have a solution soon!)
We are compatible with any soda maker that uses a 'screw in' soda cylinder. E.g a blue Soda Stream® cylinder or a white Soda King® cylinder
Note: We will have a solution soon for the new Quick Connect machines! Please hit the 'Get In Touch' at the bottom of our main page to register your interest!
