Introduction
Sometimes when you operate your SodaStream, the drink does not come out fizzy enough, or you can hear gas escaping on the inside. This may be an issue with the internal air hose. This is a small piece that is part of the inner machine setup. The hose is what helps the carbonation process, it connects the carbonation bottle with the nozzle on the main loader tab, and if it is damaged in any way you may not be able to use your device. In this guide, you will see how the hose can be disconnected and replaced if the need arises.

Thanks for the guide, but i currently have this issue where the hose needs to be replaced, but no way of sourcing a spare part? Any clues anyone?
Did you ever find the part for your machine?
Where would you get this part
Exactly the same problem on my Source, but I can't find spare parts anywhere.
Has anyone found where to get them from in Australia?
did you ever find a supplier for the air hose replacement?
