A system for forming a cell-based comestible meat product, comprising:
- a bioreactor enclosure;
- a plurality of cylindrical substrates disposed within the bioreactor enclosure, the plurality of cylindrical substrates comprising surfaces spaced apart from one another and extending in a direction from a bottom of the bioreactor enclosure towards a top of the bioreactor enclosure;
- a fluid supply conduit configured to supply a fluid to the plurality of cylindrical substrates;
- and
- a fluid dispenser disposed within the bioreactor enclosure and connected to the fluid supply conduit, the fluid dispenser comprising:
- an arm rotatable relative to the fluid supply conduit;
- and
- a plurality of fluid outlets positioned on the arm of the fluid dispenser within the bioreactor enclosure, wherein the plurality of cylindrical substrates are concentric about an axis of rotation of the fluid dispenser and each fluid outlet of the plurality of fluid outlets is radially positioned on the arm of the fluid dispenser and oriented relative to a respective pair of substrates of the plurality of cylindrical substrates to dispense a fluid jet into a spacing between and adjacent to opposing surfaces of the respective pair of substrates as the arm rotates within the bioreactor enclosure.
