Abstract: A pouring apparatus for a container for liquids with a pouring insert which consists of a holding device (3) for flow channels which are arranged in a ring-shape fashion around its central axis and project in the direction of said central axis into the container (2) for liquids, which holding device (3) can be inserted into the pouring opening (1) of the container (2). In order to provide advantageous constructional conditions it is proposed that the flow channels (6) are merely provided in an outer ring region and delimit a main channel (8).
