A faucet is in fluid communication with the cylindrical void through the base mount and is configured to pour liquid after it has been filtered.
Abstract: A method for infusing a flavor from a substance into an infusion liquid. The method includes placing the infusion liquid and the substance into a vessel, where the infusion liquid contains alcohol. The method further includes providing a pressurization liquid in contact with the vessel, where the pressurization liquid has a pressure, where the vessel has a pressure, and where increasing the pressure of the pressurization liquid increases the pressure of the vessel. The method further includes pressurizing the pressurization liquid to a predetermined pressure for a predetermined duration. The flavor from the substance is infused into the infusion liquid by pressurizing the pressurization liquid at the predetermined pressure for the predetermined duration.
