Welcome to October!
Here’s some good news for all you paid subscribers: we have a very, very cool giveaway this month from the good people at Aarke. They’re giving away an Aarke Carbonator 3 in heritage green.
I became aware of Aarke around three years ago when I was searching for a new French press for my husband. It’s a Swedish company that has a cult following thanks to their gorgeous, expertly engineered kitchen accessories like coffee makers, coffee presses, kettles, and water filters.
In celebration of the 10-year anniversary of its iconic Carbonator, the folks at Aarke have generously offered to send one of you a carbonated water maker in this extremely handsome heritage green color, a new hue that pays homage to the 1920s Swedish Grace movement.
If that’s not your thing, they do have other colors/finishes like burgundy, matte black, steel — even gold.) The body is stainless steel and it comes with a BPA-free PET bottle and one CO2 cylinder.
As for replacing the CO2 cylinders, you can join Aarke’s exchange, so you don't create unnecessary waste.
So, how do you participate in this wonderful giveaway? If you are already a paid subscriber, you are all set — you’re automatically entered.

This giveaway closes at midnight on October 31, 2026. I’ll email the winner on November 2, 2026. You’ll have 48 hours to claim your prize.
Best of luck to you all! Happy bubbling!
