Absolutely not something to be given for granted.

I've never been to Germany but this has to be affordable there if its affordable anywhere in the world:

Get a clean keg, fill almost all the way with water, put in the fridge and connect to co2 cylinder at 35-50 psi. 35 will take 1-2 days to carbonate and you can turn it down for serving. higher will usually be faster. shaking the water keg with the co2 attached can have it done in a minute or two. basically if you can already dispense a keg you can make infinite carbonated water for pretty much nothing

you can also get bags of mineral amendments from a brewing shop to replicate your favourite brand or spring.

Your fridge fits an entire keg?

one of them is a somewhat normal residential fridge and can fit a 20L on the left side if you take out the drawers and shelves on that side. The other is just a kegerator I got from a small brewery that went out of business and just replaced the lines and the taps.

Your fridge has a "left side" with separate drawers from the right side? That's gigantic.

[-] Grass@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

no the shelves are normal except they are half width and anchor on 3 of 4 corners. the drawers and shelves can be side by side, stacked, or spaced out. one side has all the shelves, the other just barely can't have a shelf above the keg. total width would fit two kegs, maybe with the co2 nested between but it's more convenient to put other stuff in using shelves on half

How wide is your fridge? I have 48cm (on the inside) to work with.
