Keeping Soda from Going Flat

RE: Keeping Soda from Going Flat Post by Deeli (55) | (07/30/2008) Contact Yep, squeeze the air out of the bottle before placing the cap back on. This works well for carbonated water too. :-) Report Spam or Abuse RE: Keeping Soda from Going Flat Post by Lynn Beth (415) | (07/30/2008) Contact Once the bottle is opened the air pocket in the empty part of the bottle is enough to make the remaining liquid go flat, no matter how tight the cap is on. Squeezing the air out is probably the best thing you can do to prolong it's life.

It always works for me. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Keeping Soda from Going Flat Post by catastrofy (58) | (07/28/2008) Contact Thanks, people!! I will try some of these suggestions!

Or you can purchase a soda dispenser for liter bottles at www.kitchencollection.com . You also can purchase very inexpensive "soda savers" can lids for cans at www.kitchencollection.com. I have used both the liter pumps and the can lids and think they work as well as can be expected considering that the pop will eventually go flat no matter what you do. However, they both extend the fizz and the expense for both is almost non-existent compared to what you can save on soda.

That perks it up quite a bit. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Keeping Soda from Going Flat Post by carolb (58) | (07/27/2008) Profile | Contact Yup! I agree with the last post! Squish the bottle till there's no air in it, and the pop stays fizzy!

The soda will not go flat for a long time at room temperature.

I used to waste a lot of money dumping soda out that had gone flat. I read somewhere that if you squeeze air out of the bottle until the pop is up to the top before you put the lid back on it wouldn't go flat in the fridge. I tried this and it works great. I've kept opened bottles of soda in the fridge for weeks and when I open them they still taste great and aren't flat. Report Spam or Abuse
