A system that dispenses precise amounts of ingredients in sequential steps that formulate a craft cocktail, mixed drink or shot into a single serve beverage container. The system then closes the container and a resulting vacuum is created that hermetically seals the lid to the container. The sealed container is then agitated in a prescribed motion to mix the contents as they would normally be done by expert individuals in the field of mixology or bartending. The system comprises of a series of stations that inject ingredients, a closing mechanism for the lid resulting in a vacuum that seals the lid to the container body, method of maintaining the lid on to the container body until vacuum is established, and agitating mechanism that precisely mixes the ingredients into themselves prior to finish packing.

A device for filling a container with a filling product includes a filling valve for influencing the supply of the filling product into the container to be filled, generally during the transport, by means of a container transporting device, of the containers to be filled, a dosing valve for dosing a dosing product from a dosing product reservoir into the filling valve, and a main component reservoir for providing a main component at the filling valve. A dosing product changing device is provided for changing the dosing product in the dosing product reservoir during the filling operation.

A unitary dispensing nozzle for co-injecting two or more liquids of different viscosity, solubility and/or miscibility at high filling speed to improve homogeneous mixing of such liquids, while said nozzle is an integral piece free of any movable parts and substantially free of dead space.

An apparatus for filling containers with a filling product, for example in a beverage bottling plant, includes a plurality of filling members, which respectively have a filling product line for feeding the filling products into an appropriate container; and at least one distribution line, to which the filling product lines of the plurality of filling members are linked.

A liquid dispensing system for dispensing two or more liquids of different composition, viscosity, solubility and/or miscibility at high filling speeds into a container through a unitary dispensing nozzle to improve homogeneous mixing of such liquids, while said nozzle is an integral piece free of any movable parts.

A filling valve for filling a container with a filling product, e.g., a beverage in a beverage filling system, includes a valve base body. The valve base body includes an outlet configured to discharge the filling product into the container; a swirl chamber configured to receive the filling product and is able to be brought into a fluidic connection with the outlet; and a main inlet, which feeds into the swirl chamber and is configured to introduce at least one main component of the filling product into the swirl chamber such that the filling product is swirled in the swirl chamber, whereby after exiting from the outlet the filling product flows downwardly in a spiral movement in the container. The swirl chamber has an annular shape, the cross-sectional contour thereof having a rounded shape, substantially without corner points, in the direction of extent and perpendicular to the direction of extent.

The disclosure concerns a dispensing system, having at least one dispense location with at least one dispensing head configured to dispense a beverage through a bottom portion of a container. In one aspect, the dispensing head may dispense a plurality of different beverage ingredients which a user may select to dispense a custom beverage. In another aspect the dispensing system comprises a modular dispensing system having a plurality of dispense locations each connected through piping to a central, remote ingredient system.
