    I’ve never been to Germany but this has to be affordable there if its affordable anywhere in the world:

    Get a clean keg, fill almost all the way with water, put in the fridge and connect to co2 cylinder at 35-50 psi. 35 will take 1-2 days to carbonate and you can turn it down for serving. higher will usually be faster. shaking the water keg with the co2 attached can have it done in a minute or two. basically if you can already dispense a keg you can make infinite carbonated water for pretty much nothing

    you can also get bags of mineral amendments from a brewing shop to replicate your favourite brand or spring.

        one of them is a somewhat normal residential fridge and can fit a 20L on the left side if you take out the drawers and shelves on that side. The other is just a kegerator I got from a small brewery that went out of business and just replaced the lines and the taps.

          Your fridge has a “left side” with separate drawers from the right side? That’s gigantic.

            no the shelves are normal except they are half width and anchor on 3 of 4 corners. the drawers and shelves can be side by side, stacked, or spaced out. one side has all the shelves, the other just barely can’t have a shelf above the keg. total width would fit two kegs, maybe with the co2 nested between but it’s more convenient to put other stuff in using shelves on half
