You know what would be fun? Brewing soda or what ever the call the process.

I wonder if google would have any idea how a home owner, home renter would go about doing it?

you can buy the equipment to do this quite easily, all you`ll need after as the consumables will be the 12.5g (sometimes 8g) CO2 cartridges.

"soda stream" used to make a range of them.

Yeah, to "brew" it or naturally carbonate it you'll end up with alcohol being present, and it's actually quite tricky to get the carbonation right without making bottle bombs.

Being a forced carbonation set up like an old soda keg from a homebrew shop or the like makes it very easy - mix it up, put it in the keg, and carbonate it.

A couple quick links for homebrew places that have kegs and soda making stuff.

I don't have enough money to buy all sorts of elaborate equipment.

And thanks Bam, I really like to get a basic recipe going first then add the carbonation.

Wouldn't it be easier to come up with your own syrup formula, then just mix with soda water? Like the "soda jerks" from way-back-when?

One can get a root beer kit, here:
http://www.leeners.com/

I have actually shopped there for candymaking supplies when I made my nieces lollipops. They also have been to The Fabulous Food Show with their different kits from making cheese to making bubblegum. It is pretty cool. Jim, the owner's husband is a really nice guy and is very helpful.
