Abstract
A cooling system for a dispensing station includes a modular manifold that incorporates into the dispensing station. The modular manifold includes a recirculation block, an interface block, one or more expander blocks, and one or more spacer blocks that interconnect to produce the modular manifold. The modular manifold includes a recirculation line that couples at an inlet with a cooling fluid system to receive a cooling fluid therein and at an outlet with the cooling fluid system to deliver the cooling fluid from the modular manifold to the cooling fluid system. The modular manifold couples with a drink source and with a drink outlet of the dispensing station such that a drink flowing through the modular manifold from the drink source transfers heat to the cooling fluid circulating through the recirculation line resulting in a chilling of the drink prior to a dispensing thereof from the drink outlet.
