How to Make 5 Gallons of Sparkling Mineral Water

Before you begin: The water will be cloudy when the mineral packet is first mixed in. This is normal. Some of the minerals do not dissolve readily in plain water, and heating the water does not help. The pressurizing and shaking steps below are important because carbonation and carbonic acid help dissolve the minerals fully into solution.

  1. Add the entire mineral packet to a clean keg.
  2. Add about 2.5 gallons of room-temperature distilled water. Do not heat the water.
  3. Seal the keg, pressurize to 30 PSI, and shake vigorously for 1 minute.
  4. Let the keg sit under pressure for 1 minute.
  5. Fully release the pressure from the keg before opening it.
  6. Add enough room-temperature distilled water to reach 5 gallons total.
  7. Seal the keg, pressurize again to 30 PSI, and shake vigorously for another 1 minute.
  8. Chill and carbonate to your preferred level before serving. For best results, allow the keg to sit cold overnight.

Carbonation Tip: Start around 2.0-2.8 volumes of CO2 for a softer sparkle that complements the lighter mineral profile. Use our kegging carbonation chart to fine-tune pressure for your serving temperature.

Optional: A Craft Cocktail on Draft Keg or a full-length liquid dip tube installed on the gas side of a standard keg can help keep everything evenly mixed while dispensing. Bringing the CO2 in at the bottom of the keg allows the gas to bubble up through the liquid each time the keg receives pressure, providing gentle mixing. This can be especially helpful if you add flavoring, such as LorAnn flavoring, to your sparkling water.

Behind the Brew

Getting the mineral profile right was only half the job. We also had to figure out how to get all of those minerals fully into solution. At first, the water turns very cloudy, and heating it didn’t help. The breakthrough was carbonation. As CO2 dissolves into the water, it forms carbonic acid, which helps dissolve minerals that are stubborn in plain water. A couple rounds of pressurizing and shaking, followed by chilling and carbonation, gave us clear sparkling mineral water without needing heat.
