Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for increasing a nuclear spin polarization of a target compound. In accordance with such systems and methods, a first non-thermal equilibrium nuclear spin polarization can be imparted to at least one source atom of a source compound, the source atom having a nuclear gyromagnetic ratio of at least 12 megahertz per tesla (MHz/T). A first solution can be obtained that includes the source compound and a target compound. The at least one source atom can be present in a source concentration of at least 0.1 molar (M) in the first solution. A second non-thermal equilibrium nuclear spin polarization of at least 0.01% can be imparted to the at least one target atom of the target compound via a nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) transfer of the first non-thermal equilibrium nuclear spin polarization to the at least one target atom.

Abstract: A beverage dispenser for providing mixed beverages. The beverage dispenser has a housing containing a plurality of first liquids, a plurality of second liquids, and a water supply, wherein the first liquids comprise liquors, and wherein the second liquids comprise mixer syrup. The beverage dispenser also has an interface, a dispensing spout and a server. The interface is provided on the housing to input variable data and receive variable instructions. The server electrically operates valves to control the flow of first liquids, second liquids and water to the beverage dispenser spout based on instructions entered at the interface and a pouring schema stored in memory.

Abstract: A method and system for managing the dispensing of beverages from an automatic beverage dispensing unit. The beverages may be comprised of a single or multiple ingredients, including a first plurality of liquids, a second plurality of liquids, and/or a combination of one or more first and second plurality of liquids. In addition, garnishes and sides may be included in the beverage. The beverages are dispensed according to a pouring schema. The pouring schema may be a beverage recipe and may be preprogrammed by a system manager, or alternatively, be chosen by a consumer during operation of the system. The first plurality of liquids may include liquors and the second plurality of beverages may include mixers which are mixed with the liquors to create the beverage.
