Dispense head for a beverage dispenser

摘要

Apparatus for dispensing a beverage has a dispense head provided with a chamber 4 through which coolant is passed to cause condensation and/or ice to form on an outer surface of the dispense head. A beverage supply line 7 to a dispense tap is in heat exchange relationship with the chamber 4 to cool the beverage in the supply line 7. Coolant is circulated through the chamber 4 in a re-circulation loop in response to actuation of a dispense to cool the beverage during the dispense. Coolant is circulated through the chamber 4 at intervals between dispenses to prevent the beverage warming up. <IMAGE>
