An article of manufacture including a tangible, non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, via the processor, an identifier from a sensor disposed in a beverage mixing device, the sensor configured to capture the identifier on a capsule including a pre-mixed composition;
- determining, via the processor, a drink type associated with the identifier;
- commanding, via the processor and through a pump, pumping of a non-carbonated water from a water supply in response to the drink type including the non-carbonated water;
- receiving, via the processor and through a flow meter, a flow rate of the non-carbonated water being dispensed;
- and
- commanding, via the controller, the pump to stop pumping in response to determining a predetermined volume of the water supply has been mixed with the pre-mixed composition, the predetermined volume based on the drink type.
