ABSTRACT:
An improved drip tray for a beverage dispenser, an improved cold carbonated beverage dispenser and a kit for retrofitting existing beverage dispensers into the improved beverage dispenser have a drip tray with a front nose which is extended and spaced upward of and forward of an original drip tray and cup rest, and wings which extend transversely outward beyond sides of the dispenser. An improved and enlarged receptacle rest extends to the nose and across both wings. The improved dispenser handles both standard sized cups and extra large beverage receptacles of at least one quart volume, specific examples of which are 44 oz. cups and pitchers, while providing automatic unattended shut off of dispensing in response to sensing of the level of beverage being adjacent to the upper rim of any of the standard or extra large receptacles, and complete and stable unattended support of the extra large receptacles during dispensing and shut off. Methods of dispensing with extra large receptacles and for retrofitting an existing dispenser to handle extra large receptacles are also provided.
