An apparatus is provided for accurately dispensing a powder such as powdered infant formula into a container, and pasteurizing and reconstituting the powdered formula while completely mixing the formula in the container. The apparatus includes a hopper assembly for storing powder, a dosing assembly for measuring and dispensing powder from a receptacle into the container, a dilution assembly and a mixing assembly for obtaining accurately and completely mixed formula from the dispensed powder. The hopper is shaped to promote powder bridging, and the resulting powder bridge is used in combination with the dosing assembly to provide a predetermined amount of powder using a single mechanical valve that is isolated from the powder. The mixing assembly mixes the contents of the container while holding the bottle at a fixed angle relative to the vertical. A method of providing pasteurized infant formula from an infant formula powder is also disclosed.

A carrying device uses a folding structural frame covered by a shell. The frame is configured with two rigid members, which are joined together by two pivotable joints. A two-part base piece attaches to the frame and creates a structural bottom for the bag, with the base supporting articles placed inside of the bag. The frame and base create support that enables the bag to stand upright on a flat surface. The shell is made from a soft, flexible fabric material. The assembly is capable of folding to a substantially flat position, with the frame members moving relative to one another around the pivotable joints, and the base folding in half and becoming substantially co-planar with the frame. A strap attaches to the device in multiple configurations, allowing the device to be carried in different ways.
