Abstract
An improved apparatus and system for on-demand carbonated water production includes at least one carbonating unit having a volume with a inlet in communication with sources of carbonating gas and noncarbonated water, and an outlet for discharging carbonated water. An agitator is housed within the volume of the carbonating unit. A controller and variable speed actuator are operably connected to the agitator. The controller can have a rate of operation for the agitator corresponding to a selected level of carbonation for an agitation interval. The agitation intervals can be fixed or varied to discharge carbonated water at different selected levels of carbonation. The controller can vary the rate of operation for the agitator based, at least in part, on user-independent operating parameters. The controller can increase or decrease in the rate of operation and/or the agitation interval of the agitator to discharge a higher or lower level of carbonation, respectively.
