Abstract
A post-mix beverage dispensing system for delivering syrup from a supply reservoir to one or more dispensing stations and to one or more drink dispensing units at each station including a syrup dispensing valve for the syrup in the reservoir. The syrup is adapted to be delivered from the reservoir at the delivery pressure generated by the reservoir pump and which, in light of a pressure drop between the reservoir and dispensing station or stations, may or may not provide a predetermined syrup dispensing pressure required at the dispensing station for dispensing a predetermined quantity of syrup through the dispensing valve to provide the desired syrup to soda water ratio in a dispensed drink.
