ABSTRACT:
A beverage carton dispenser for self-service coffee distribution is provided with passive thermal insulation, a locking means to prevent undesirable beverage-carton slip-out during times when a user employs a steep pouring angle. A vent aperture is provided to relieve inner-air pressure when a milk carton is being installed or removed. A pour handle and re-useable refrigerant gel are also provided. The device is simple, inexpensive and solves the problem of providing a commercially viable counter-top milk dispenser which keeps milk cold in a room-temperature environment without the use of open ice with dripping and puddling water and without active refrigeration requiring an energy input. The presence of the pour handle makes dispensing the beverage easier, safer, and more convenient and provides the user with greater control over pouring the beverage from the container.
