Systems, methods, and apparatus for dispensing ambient, cold, and carbonated water

A beverage dispensing system, comprising:

• a first controller device;
• a user selection interface in communication with the first controller device and configured to receive a user selection of a beverage to dispense;
• a second controller device in communication with the first controller device and configured to control preparation and dispensing of a beverage based on the user selection;
• a water filtration system in communication with the second controller device and in fluid communication with a water supply source;
• a water cooling system in communication with the second controller device and configured to cool water from the water filtration system when instructed by the second controller device;
• a water carbonation system in communication with the second controller device and configured to carbonate cooled water from the water cooling system when instructed by the second controller device, the water carbonation system comprising:
• a first carbon dioxide source, and
• a chamber for combining and storing the carbonated and cooled water;
• and
• a beverage dispensing device, in communication with the second controller device, the beverage dispensing device being in fluid communication with a second carbon dioxide source and configured to, in response to receiving the user selection:
• receive previously carbonated and cooled water from the chamber of the water carbonation system,
• receive carbon dioxide from the second carbon dioxide source,
• mix the previously carbonated and cooled water with the received carbon dioxide from the second carbon dioxide source to prepare a beverage in accordance with the user selection, and
• dispense the beverage.
