How do you adjust pressure and temperature to increase amount of dissolved CO2 in carbonated beverage that dissolve carbon dioxide in water by placing carbon dioxide in water at pressure of 1 atm at room temp?

do you just decrease the temp and increase the pressure.

Decreasing the temperature and increasing the pressure will work. Also I'm sure you know about diffusion. If you increase the concentration of CO2 then more will dissolve quicker.

FYI when they carbonate water in bottling plants they cool the water and bubble the CO2 through the water. I've seen schematics for systems that used liquid nitrogen to chill the water and CO2 fast and increased the air pressure, but this was only one type of machine.
