| What matters |  Open a backyard soda laboratory |
|---|---|
| Planning budget | $35 · Up to $35 supply allowance · planning estimate |
| Your extra allowance | $0 |
| Estimated total | $35 |
| Activity + setup | 90 minutes (planning estimate) |
| Round-trip travel | None |
| Effort | Set up at home |
| The catch | Use food-grade ingredients; never put syrup in equipment designed to carbonate plain water only. |
| Where | At home |
| Add uncovered costs | |

Budgets are planning allowances, not quotes. Existing estimates already include categories of travel and extras; add only uncovered costs. Travel time and availability need confirmation.
