A dispenser unit for a non-gaseous flowable material has a holder for the flowable material with an aperture therein through which the material can be transferred between into and out of the holder, and a flow meter for measuring flow of the material during transfer. The flow meter has a sensor, for example a differential pressure meter which determines a pressure difference between two locations which are vertically spaced from each other within the holder, one above and one below the surface of the material, at a number of times during the transfer. The meter emits a signal indicative of the flow from a calculation of the rate of change of the determined pressure difference.
