Abstract
The invention is a device for storing, dispensing and recycling a suspension of regenerating microorganism. The device provides an opening allowing a user to remove a portion of the suspension. The device defines a first area for receipt of new suspension and a second area for dispensing of such suspension for use. Preferably, an angled plate in the interior of the device forms a passage through which the suspension passes towards the dispensing opening. After use, the used suspension is recycled by again pouring the used suspension back into the device through a screen cover. The device allows a user to continue to reuse suspension from the device in that the device recycles such suspension in a manner that allows the microorganism to regenerate as it travels through the device towards the dispensing opening.
