A system for cleaning a beverage dispenser that has a nozzle for receiving a beverage and a sanitizing fluid as a housing. The housing has an outer wall and inner wall with annular flow path between the walls. There is a central flow path through the nozzle and a connection for fluid flow of sanitizing fluid between the central flow path and the annular flow path. The nozzle also has inlet for introduction of the sanitizing fluid. The system can be provided with a controller for controlling temperature, pressure and flow rate of the sanitizing fluid, the controller including memory for storing information when sanitization occurred.

A water valve having a housing defining an inlet and an outlet and a flow path extending therethrough, a pressure sensor configured to sense a water pressure at the inlet, a valve member situated within the flow path to open and close the flow path, a solenoid actuator, and a controller coupled to the pressure sensor to read the water pressure at the inlet and coupled to the solenoid to open and close the valve is provided. The controller determines an amount of time to hold the valve open in order to dispense an amount of water based on the water pressure. The controller commands the solenoid to open and close the valve to dispense the amount of water regardless of the water pressure. The controller is also configured to open the valve to reduce inlet pressure and prevent failure thereof.

A dispensing system including: a pressure vessel with an inlet and an outlet; a first CF Valve coupled to the inlet; a second CF Valve coupled to the outlet; a bag with elements in the bag coupled to the outlet and located inside the pressure vessel; and a pressure source coupled to the first CF Valve where the first CF Valve pressurizes the pressure vessel via the pressure source to transport elements in the bag to the second CF Valve via the outlet and the second CF Valve dispenses the elements to a dispensing area.

An apparatus for brewing and dispensing a beverage comprising a fermentation container for containing and fermenting a beverage, the fermentation container comprising a first outlet, and a collector for collecting waste from the fermentation container, the collector being attachable to and detachable from the fermentation container at the first outlet.

This disclosure relates to a dispensing system including: a display screen which displays one or more icons, the one or more icons including at least a first icon, a second icon, and a third icon, the display screen may transmit one or more signals to one or more processors based on one or more user contacts with the display screen, the one or more processors may receive at least a first sales data, a second sales data, and a third sales data, where the one or more processors may: modify a first size of the first icon based on a first sales data for a first element relating to the first icon; modify a second size of the second icon based on a second sales data for a second element relating to the second icon; and modify a third size of the third icon based on a third sales data for a third element relating to the third icon; and a first dispensing unit which may dispense one or more elements based on the one or more signals.

An example system includes an incompressible, airtight pressurized container operable to maintain a pressure level in an internal pressurized environment, a transport system including at least two liquid transport conduits, and a mixing component, the two liquid conduits each being releasably coupled to a pressurized container interface coupled to the pressurized container and a dispensing interface, each liquid transport conduit including a controllable valve to enable or disable a flow of the liquid volume, the pressurized container interface capable of maintaining the pressure level, the mixing component being coupled to the at least two liquid transport conduits and the dispensing interface, a pressure regulation system connected to the pressurized container, the pressure regulation system operable to exert and maintain the pressure level within the pressurized container to enable compression of the first compressible liquid volume, and a control system operable to control the controllable valves and the pressure regulation system.

Examples disclosed herein relate to a dispensing device including a product unit with a pressure which transmits one or more products to an infuser, a water source with one or more CFValves that transmits water to the infuser, a gas source which transmits one or more gases to the infuser, and a dispensing area which dispenses a mixture generated via the infuser from a product unit input, a water source input, and a gas source input.

Examples disclosed herein relate to conduits, devices, systems and methods, which may include a dispensing device including a valve configured to interact with an inlet stream, the inlet stream having a first pressure, the valve having an outlet area with an outlet stream, the outlet stream having a second pressure; and a solenoid configured to interact with the outlet stream.

A system and method of using an O-ring retaining apparatus to maintain an O-ring in the same position relative to the position of the handle of a bar gun while permitting a valve stem in physical contact with the O-ring to slide past without the O-ring becoming dislodged.

This disclosure describes systems and methods for providing an interactive bartender that leverages a custom drink dispenser that pours ingredients from a selected drink into the cup. Mixing of the ingredients may be achieved with a custom manifold that receives configured amounts of ingredients of the selected beverage and mixes them while dispensing the ingredients. The manifold may include a number of channels. Certain channels may dispense non-alcoholic liquid ingredients while other channels may dispense alcoholic liquid ingredients. Nozzles feeding the channels may provide carbonated, non-carbonated water, concentrated flavored liquids, alcohol, and other liquid.
