How thick was the plastic you used ???? I was thinking about trying to make one out of plexiglass or lucite with a hole large enough in the top to put the tip...
What If you had the co2 head out of a breakmate and hooked it to a large dip tube tank and regulator ? I suppose the check valve could be removed and you...
My machine does either 3 or 6.5 depending on the setting of the 4th button. I do NOT have the jumper on mine either. Is it the jumper that changes the sizes...
Yes, its the jumper, jump it, and it will change to 10oz drink. This is where the coinbox connects to the smartboard, if you have a coinbox you will have to...
You could do that, or you can get the real refill system on ebay for around $200, or go external thank. I have a 20lbs tank, I refill it every 2 years!!!...
Hi Carl, When I tried to make a bottle, I used that Crayola marbilized plastic clay stuff, that I believe you bake. I didn't get that far. The "plastic" that...
At times when I test the machine (sensor test button 5 ) the A light comes on. In my manual it says that means "no large ice bank page 4.23". Is this a...
d111247, I found out today that there is a special glue that you bond plexiglass and lucite with to make like Plastic aquariums. I'm gonna find some of that...
I got a watermate and the valve that recieves the big jug was broken off in the pump. I took it out and asked a dealer about another one and he told me that...
If you have an old CO2 regulator that you had to replace I would like to buy your old bad one. I want to try to adapt one to use to refill our 20 oz tanks. ...
I made a set of these for my breakmate using Lucite glue and leaving the side of the box with the hole in it for the bag's connector to the dispensing valve...
Can you post a picture? I like your idea, other people tend to work with non-fda approved plastics and glues. There is a list at fda's website of food grade...
expresso, I have not got far enough to pic yet. I'm out of town for the next 10 days so won't be able to get on them untill i get back. When I get something...
Forgot, they need to be just a little smaller than the exterior of the original cartons in case we have to put cardboard around them for insulation like the...
I don't think that the containers need any insulation. When we got our breakmate i n the early 90's, the syrup containers were a hard plastic. They were in...
Guys, I have them made and installed in my machine. The only issue, which it is not for me, may be the fact you must reuse the plastic bags from an original...
Thanks guys for the insulation information. I had just read elsewhere that some people were getting their syrup froze and thought the insulation of the...
If i run several drinks quickly my co2 level in the water drops quickly. i am NOT out of gas. after 20 minutes or so everything goes back to normal. will...
Doesn't sound like the agitator, the agitator keeps the water from freezing, since the optimal temp for carbonation is 34F. You then would be getting Icee type...
expressotoday, I have not and will check the temp with a thermometer but seems OK. No icee or slushy drinks. I could have and probably did go over the 40oz of...
The symptoms: Slushy ice building up on the screen underneath the water/syrup mixing tray. Also, not enough carbonated water getting through. If I turn the...
Hi all, I am new to this discussion group. I have a Breakmate that is missing the doser's. Does anyone have any idea where I might be able to purchase these in...
Thats a classic example of agitator failure, I would go ahead and change it, they are notorious for failing in breakmates. If you need the repair manual, I...
WoW, didn't know that there were breakmates down under. If you need one shipped from the usa, I believe mrbreakmate.com will do it for you, if not, email me,...
i have just about finished the first set. I will post pic's before next weekend. it was quite an education finding the right plastic as well as the glue that...
Anyone know where Pepsi syrup may be purchased online that would work in a breakmate? I understand I may have to put it into a "bag in the box" box to make it...
try this place: http://www.beverageexpress.com You can also get direct from pepsi! Setup an account with them, then just pickup it. You can find them in the...
I am having trouble bonding the nylon fittings to the boxes. Have only found 2 types of adhesive that is foodgrade. They are both pure rubber silicone and...
Are you trying to bond a syrup box nozzle to a acrylic box? I have heard of some people using hot melt glue, but that is only fda approved for non-direct,...
