Abstract: A system is provided having a seal cap assembly that allows for the dissolution of sparingly soluble gases into a base liquid contained with a valveless container having only a single opening closed by a twist cap. The seal cap assembly is placed over the opening to create a sealed chamber around the opening. Sparingly soluble gas is then added to chilled based liquid between the twist cap and the partially closed opening. After agitating the base liquid and gas, the twist cap is fully closed about the opening of the container to seal the opening. The final beverage product includes the valveless container fully sealed by the twist cap and containing a beverage aerated with at least one sparingly soluble gas.

Abstract: A carbonated beverage maker includes a water reservoir, a carbon dioxide creation chamber, and a carbonation chamber. The water reservoir holds ice water and has a first impeller and a shroud surrounding the first impeller. The carbon dioxide creation chamber contains chemical elements and receives warm water. The chemical elements react with each other to create carbon dioxide when the warm water is introduced to the carbon dioxide creation chamber. The carbonation chamber is connected to the water reservoir and the carbon dioxide creation chamber. The carbonation chamber has a second impeller that includes a stem portion and blades. The stem portion and the blades define conduits therein. The blades create a low pressure region in a lower portion of the carbonation chamber such that carbon dioxide from the carbon dioxide creation chamber flows through the conduits to the low pressure region.

Abstract: Various illustrative systems, devices, and methods of beverage carbonation system flow control are provided. A carbonation system is one example of a treatment system to which the systems, devices, and methods described herein apply. In general, a carbonation system is configured to form a carbonated fluid and dispense the carbonated fluid in a controlled manner. In an illustrative embodiment, the carbonation system is configured to begin dispensing the carbonated fluid with a pressure in a chamber of the carbonation system, in which the carbonated fluid is formed, being above atmospheric pressure. A gas is introduced into the chamber after dispensing has already started via the pressure in the chamber to drive the flow of the carbonated fluid. The gas can be introduced into the chamber according to a predetermined pressure profile.

Abstract: A lid for a liquid container has a lid body having an outer perimeter in a horizontal plane. The lid body defines a liquid port within the outer perimeter. The lid body has a closure that selectively closes the liquid port. A rigid handle extends away from the lid body, the rigid handle defining a first aperture adjacent to the lid body. A pivoting handle is attached to the lid body by a pivot connection. The pivoting handle defines a second aperture and is pivotable from a stored position, in which the first aperture and the second aperture cooperate to define a common aperture, to a second position in which the first aperture is pivotally spaced from the second aperture.

Abstract: A beverage system and methods for preparing flavored beverages are provided. In one embodiment, the beverage system includes a housing, a flavorant system, and a processor. The housing includes a mixing chamber configured to operably couple to a fluid reservoir and pressurized gas source. The processor is disposed in the housing and can be configured to cause, in response to at least one input, the separate dispensing of a fluid and a flavorant into a receptacle. The processor can also cause the delivery of gas from the pressurized gas source to the mixing chamber, where it can be used to form a carbonated fluid.
