Abstract: Ingredient containers for use in a beverage carbonation system are provided. The ingredient container includes a container body defining an interior hollow chamber, and a cap coupled to the opening of the container body. The container body has an opening leading to the interior hollow chamber and a cross-section with a major axis defining a width that is greater than a minor axis defining a depth. The cap has an inlet that is sealed to retain fluid within the container and that is configured to open to allow gas to be injected into the interior hollow chamber. The cap has an outlet that is sealed to retain fluid within the container and that is configured to open to allow fluid within the container to flow out through the outlet valve. The inlet and the outlet are aligned along a first axis that extends parallel to the minor axis of the container body.

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.

Abstract: Ingredient containers for use in a beverage carbonation system are provided. The ingredient container includes a container body having a hollow interior and an opening leading into the hollow interior. The ingredient container also includes a cap positioned over the opening in the container body and including an inlet port and an outlet port. A cross-section of the cap extends substantially perpendicular to a central axis of each of the inlet port and the outlet port, and the cross-section of the cap has a shape that is a substantially circular triangle.

Abstract: A cooking system is provided. In one embodiment, the cooking system includes a housing having a first internal heating compartment having a first opening, and a second internal heating compartment having a second opening. A first heating element is configured to heat the first internal heating compartment, and a second heating element is configured to heat the second internal heating compartment. The system further includes a door assembly having a first door configured to cover the first opening, a second door configured to cover the second opening, a first frame member, and a second frame member. The second door is pivotally arranged relative to the first door and is configured to selectively allow access to the second internal heating compartment while the first door covers the first opening, and the second door selectively locks to the first frame member and the second frame member.

Abstract: Closures for use with ingredient containers are provided. The closures include a cap body having a base and a sidewall. The base has an inlet port and an outlet port formed therein, and the sidewall extends around the base and define an outer perimeter of the cap body. The sidewall includes first and second shoulders extending upward from the base on opposed sides of the inlet and outlet ports. The first shoulder has a first inner surface and the second shoulder has a second inner surface, and the first and second inner surfaces each have a detent therein configured to receive a corresponding protrusion in a carriage assembly of a beverage carbonation system.

Abstract: A flavorant container for use in a beverage system is provided. The flavorant container can be retained by a beverage system to dispense flavorant, which can be mixed with carbonated and/or uncarbonated water. In one embodiment, the flavorant container includes a container, a cap, and one or more features located on the cap. The features can include an inlet that is able to receive pressurized air, and an outlet that is able to dispense a flavorant when the inlet receives the pressurized air. The features can also include at least one raised protrusion that is capable of being retained by a complimentary pattern located on a beverage system in order to properly seat the flavorant container in the beverage system.

Abstract: An extrusion assembly for a micro puree machine is disclosed. The extrusion assembly includes a plunger drive inhibitor configured to restrict input torque applied to the extrusion assembly from transferring to the extrusion drive train and the extrusion plunger. The plunger drive inhibitor may be implemented with various mechanisms, including a slip clutch assembly (with or without a frictional cone brake), a torsion spring, and/or an automated slip clutch assembly configured to cut power to the extrusion drive train when slipping of the clutch plates is detected.
