Abstract
A personal aqueous dispensing system (PADS) and a personal oil dispensing system (PODS) feature common components each with a drip-catch. Both systems utilize nitrogen to extend the life of a consumable liquid or oil. The PODS incorporates a vent to facilitate flow of air into a bottle by preventing formation of airlock. Both systems feature dispensing control using a quarter turn rotation to control dispensing flow and both include a lid. The dispensing systems also features a switching device that triggers the filling of bottles with nitrogen.
