This guy carbonates in GLASS bottles (using a 2 micron carbonation stone)!

By the way, the air-chuck idea promoted in some of these articles doesn't
work as well as connections that are constantly open to the carbon dioxide.

Also, a quick call to the 800 Coca-Cola number confirms the 2-liter Coke
bottles are tested at 200 psi (amazing that they get this question often).

WARNING: California outlawed many brass fittings as of January 1, 2010, so
those of you in the tax state may have trouble buying lead-free fittings on
line (most non-California brass fittings have up to 2% lead for ease of
machining).
