Abstract
A froster system is provided that dispenses liquid CO2 from a high-pressure CO2 cylinder through a CO2-dispensing nozzle that is disposed within a refrigerator. The froster system efficiently sanitizes and chills, freezes, or ices the vessel placed at the nozzle. The froster system includes the high-pressure CO2 cylinder in fluid communication with the CO2-dispensing nozzle, cylinder-to-nozzle tubing to connect the CO2 cylinder to the CO2-dispensing nozzle, and a controller to convey the input of the user to actuate the froster system to output liquid CO2.
Claims21
A froster system for chilling or icing a vessel, comprising:
- cylinder-to-nozzle tubing that is fluidly attachable to a CO2 cylinder containing liquid CO2;
- and
- a CO2-dispensing nozzle that is disposed within a refrigerator, that is fluidly attached to the cylinder-to-nozzle tubing, and that dispenses liquid CO2 for chilling or icing the vessel.
A method to chill or ice a vessel, comprising:
- positioning the vessel near a refrigerator;
- positioning a CO2-dispensing nozzle in, or aimed at, the vessel;
- wherein the CO2-dispensing nozzle is disposed within a refrigerator;
- and
- activating dispersal of liquid CO2 from the CO2-dispensing nozzle that is fluidly attached to a high-pressure CO2 cylinder to cause chilling or icing of the vessel.
