Abstract
A device for dispensing a liquid in a carrier fluid flow comprises a container (10) for the liquid, into which a pressure flow of carrier fluid is driven. A liquid conduit (20) within the container has an outlet (22) in the path of the carrier fluid flow into the container so that liquid is taken up and is carried with the flow, through an outlet (26) from the container. The container can be formed by a disposable capsule that is replaceably inserted into the device.
