It depends on your workflow, but it is easy to hit 60 bottles an hour with without any help. With an extra set of hands, 100 bottles per hour is possible. The most efficient way to work is to take...

Approximately how many 187ml bottles can the FIZZIQ bottling machine bottle per hour?

Yes, it can. We can send you just the coiled hose itself, along with instructions on how to replace it. If you are handy with a wrench, we can walk you through it. The hose itself is not sold separ...

The coiled hose on my commercial pressurizer is leaking at the fitting where it connects to the regulator. Can this be fixed without repacing the whole product?

This is almost certainly due to the filler being held in an orientation such that the tail end of the filler is higher than the tip, causing liquid CO2 to flow into the regulator, temporarily freez...

Some users report that the handheld filler for Perlage and Perlini will sometimes sputter when used, and it seems like the flow is blocked. This results in incomplete pressurization.

Once properly carbonated, the carbonation instilled with Perlini should be just as long-lasting as carbonation created by any other method (e.g., a bottle-conditioned Champagne). So my suspicion is...

Some users report that the carbonation only seems to last for a minute or two after pouring their cocktail. What is the reason for this?

The best way to solve this is to periodically dress the seal with a light coating of food-grade silicone oil, or food-grade mineral oil, or even vegetable oil. This smooths out surface roughness on...

Some users report not being able to get a proper seal when they screw the two halves of the shaker together. What can be done about this?

Excessive foaming during the depressurization phase is probably the most troublesome aspect of bottling carbonated beverages. The key to managing this is in the speed of filling. The faster th...

Some users have a problem with excessive foaming during the part of the filling cycle when the bottle is depressurizing and coming back to atmospheric pressure. How can I prevent this?

No, you don't. The valves are very effective. We have had bottles on Perlage for over a year with no loss of CO2 pressure in the headspace of the bottle and no decrease in carbonation levels in the...

Do I need to occassionally repressurize my bottles in the Perlage System? That is, do they leak over time at all?
