Why does soda lose carbonation so quickly?!
Why does soda lose carbonation so quickly?
Why does soda go flat so fast once open, even when you put the cap back on? What can I do to keep it bubbly longer? :)
Answers:
It's the exposure to air that causes the loss of carbonation. If you are using 2 liter bottles, try squeezing the bottle slightly as you put the cap back on. It works for me. ;)
If you leave it with the cap on the carbonation probably wouldn't last more than a few days, without the cap on it wouldn't last over night.
if they are in bottle take off cap and insert a metal spoon in the top and it will keep soda for about a week, it starts to loose carbonation quickly and should be drank in a few days. After about 3 days it will be quite flat. In the glass...have to admit I've never tested it. I drink it within 1/2 an hour and it's always fizzy to the last drop.
