based on how well the carbon dioxide tank is mixing with the syrup, and is completely independent of the ice being produced.

It depends on the fountain design.

It depends on the type of soda fountain you have. I worked at a place as a teen where we had to fill the bin with ice

Interesting, it says that here on this website as well. Still trying to

It says that the carbonated water needs to be cold to prevent the dissolved CO2

My wife is a connoisseur of polar pops and she agrees with the worker.

The ice helps cool the syrup and water which does help it retain the carbonation.

I honestly don’t get it, I buy room temp soda all the time

They usually run the water and syrup lines THROUGH the ice on top of the machine

I may be losing my mind but I swear I’ve used a fountain with the ice out

Always go to QT…. I think the soda lines are chilled, a cooled beverage holdsCO2

Not when Circle K has a membership now. $5.99/mo for one polar pop a day up to 64 oz.

I was tempted by that but…. It’s not worth it. Quality of Circle Ks just don’t

Yeah we only stop at the new circle K’s the old ones are terrible

That’s what my wife bought us both, but I still go to QT and she gets ticked

I wonder if having sticky soda residue on the counters also helps

That would be considered a 'trade secret'

Same thing happens at my circle K. The sip N save club is a good deal though
