If you try to heat up carbonated water it will just cause the dissolved carbon dioxide to escape and you'll just end up with regular flat water that is hot.

Physics doesn't let you carbonate hot water very well apparently but I'm not a physicist just applying what I remember from school. I'm not saying it's impossible (because who knows you just might be the one to invent the method) just extremely difficult.

Well, if you pressurized the hot water, you could presumably carbonate it. But you need to let that pressure out, if you actually want to drink it.

Well, unless you submerge yourself in the hot, pressurized, carbonated water, which I would not recommend actually doing for multiple reasons.

There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.

  • ex. How do I change oil
  • ex. How to tie shoes
  • ex. Can you cry underwater?
