   You can carbonate almost any liquid but what makes it harder are the fruit   
   juices bubble like crazy (don't even think of doing it with orange juice).   
      
   What you have to do is dilute the fruit juice with the bubbly water   
   afterward, which isn't ideal, but it prevents all that frothing happening.   
      
   Also, the sodastream literature is rife with warnings about getting sugar   
   into that tiny nozzle which would clog it up if left there to harden.   
      
   I've never used the beer keg carbonators though, but what I've been doing   
   for a decade works, but it takes five minutes to carbonate a liter using   
   the swirl and shake method of ice-cold water at a regulated 50 psi.   
      
   What I want to find is a tool that I can add directly to the end of a   
   4,5000 psi stainless steel hose coming out of the unregulated CO2 tank.

   Notice that I can find plenty of sodastream adapters on the market but what   
   I want is something that I've never seen on the net, which is why I'm   
   asking for help from the automotive and home repair group.   
      
   Is there a pointy air gun that I can hook on the end of that stainless   
   steel hose at an unregulated nominally 800 psi that will squirt a   
   concentrated stream of carbon dioxide into water to carbonate it in five   
   seconds instead of in five minutes?
