Abstract: A dispensing manifold includes a first end configured to be coupled with a shank, and a second end opposite the first end. The second end is configured to be coupled with a faucet. The dispensing manifold further includes a center bore that extends through an interior of the dispensing manifold and connects the first end and the second end. One or more ingredient valves can be arranged on an outer circumference of the dispensing manifold, and each of the ingredient valves provide a selective fluid connection to the center bore.

Abstract: A beverage dispensing unit includes a dispensing valve configured to be fluidly coupled to at least one beverage source, one or more ingredient pumps configured to be fluidly coupled to one or more ingredient sources, a dispensing manifold fluidly coupled to the dispensing valve and the one or more ingredient pumps, and a controller. The controller is configured to receive a recipe from a user, wherein the recipe indicates an amount of each ingredient of one or more ingredient sources. The controller is further configured to operate the one or more ingredient pumps to inject one or more of the ingredients into the dispensing manifold according to the recipe, and open the dispensing valve to allow a volume of beverage from the beverage source to flow through the dispensing manifold. The volume of beverage mixes with the one or more ingredients in the manifold and flushes the ingredients out of the manifold.
