Abstract: A no-drip carafe (10) is taught that is used for storing and serving a hot or cold beverage, which incorporates a vacuum insulated bottle (20) with a lid (30) engaging the top of the bottle. The lid incorporates a pouring spout (34) with a liquid cavity (36) running completely through and also an integral handle for convenience in handling. A spring loaded lever (56) pivotally snaps into the lid with the lever having an integral downwardly projecting plug finger (58) that engages and completely obstructs the liquid cavity when at rest. When the lever is manually depressed the plug finger is pivoted away from the liquid cavity permitting the beverage to flow freely and when released the integral downwardly projecting plug finger seals the cavity in a no-drip manner.

Abstract: An outlet tap assembly (1) for dispensing liquid packaged in flexible packaging bags is provided. The tap assembly comprises a tubular outlet member (2, 32) having a bore (8) therein, a tap (5, 6) at one end for controlling the flow of liquid through the bore, and a spike (3) at the opposite end for penetrating a plastic packaging bag. At least one aperture (4) communicates with the bore towards the inner end to allow liquid to enter from a bag into the bore.
