Abstract

The present invention relates to a nozzle (240). In particular, a nozzle for use as part of a beverage preparation package. The nozzle comprises a nozzle body (246) with a conduit (242), the conduit having an inlet end (254) and an outlet end (256), and a plug (248) that is connected to the nozzle body in a detachable manner. The plug and the conduit are configured such that, when the plug is detached from the nozzle body, the plug is adapted to travel along the conduit and be retained within the conduit at the outlet end such that fluid can flow through the conduit from the inlet end towards the outlet end.
