Frequently Asked Questions
Syphons are a popular tool in hospitality venues, helping bartenders create carbonated drinks and enhance beverage presentation. Below, we've answered some of the most commonly asked questions about syphons and their use in hospitality environments.
What are syphons?
Syphons are pressurised containers used to carbonate and dispense liquids such as soda water and cocktail ingredients. Commonly used in bars, restaurants and hotels, soda syphons help create sparkling beverages. Using gas chargers to create carbonation, syphons allow bartenders to prepare fresh soda water and carbonated drinks on demand.
How do soda syphons work?
Soda syphons work by using a CO2 gas charger to pressurise liquid inside the container. Once charged, the gas dissolves into the liquid, creating carbonation and producing sparkling water or other fizzy beverages. When the lever is pressed, the internal pressure forces the carbonated liquid through the nozzle, dispensing fresh soda water on demand.
Are syphons suitable for commercial use?
Yes, professional syphons are designed for use in bars, restaurants, hotels and hospitality venues. Their durable construction and reliable performance make them suitable for regular use in busy commercial environments.
How do you clean syphons?
Syphons should be cleaned regularly, after use, empty any remaining liquid, and rinse the syphon thoroughly with warm water to remove residue. Clean the body, nozzle and any removable components using warm, soapy water and a soft cloth or brush, taking care to avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the equipment. Rinse all parts thoroughly and allow them to dry completely before reassembly and storage. Always follow the manufacturer's care instructions.
