Ever since my wife started working from home due to the Covid panic, I've been playing subtle practical jokes on her. The latest one, which has gone on for a month now, is this.

We have one of those water carbonation things on our counter. (I know, I know... owned by the JOOS.) We keep several of the bottles filled with water in the fridge uncarbonated so they stay cold, then carbonate one at a time. Every time I use the bottle to pour a glass I tighten the cap as hard as I possibly can. She's mentioned it a few times and I've played innocent.

Just now she was in the kitchen and I heard her struggling with it. I couldn't help laughing and she heard me. The jig is up.

:-D

The CO2 place where I used to get brewing supplies doesn't have that size bottle and can't refill it. Believe me, I would if I could find a place.

You just need a 20 lb bottle under the counter.

Ask the local bar who does their beverage system. They might be able to get you a contact for a 5 pounder.

The stupid little cartridges they sell are small. The guy at the gas shop said I was not the only one asking about a refill.

Yeah, you might be able to get something like . Idk if that would hook into what you have.

Target has an exchange for them.

A number of places do, but they're expensive to refill.
