Abstract: A machine for dispensing a beverage into a container formed from a mixture of a dry granular base food product and water. The machine has a product metering unit carrying a food product storage container. The metering unit has a rotatable auger driven by a drive mechanism including an electric motor to dispense food product into a mixing bowl. A solenoid control valve operates to control the flow of water to the mixing bowl when the electric motor for the dispensing unit is actuated. An adjustable means restricts the size of the water carrying hose from the valve to the bowl to regulate the flow rate of water to the mixing bowl.
