A machine for dispensing a dispensable liquid having: - a liquid delivery module for delivering said dispensable liquid from a source, such as a liquid tank, the delivery module having a mixing area delimited by a chamber, e.g. a brewing and/or infusion chamber, the chamber being arranged to delimit the mixing area for flavouring said liquid with a flavouring ingredient in the chamber, the chamber being delimited by an upstream part and a downstream part (17") that are relatively movable between a position for mixing and a position for loading into the chamber and/or unloading from the chamber said flavouring ingredient, optionally the delivery module comprising at least one of a liquid driver, such as a pump, and a liquid conditioner, such as a heater and/or a cooler; - a service area for collecting collectable liquid from the liquid delivery module, optionally the service area being associated with a removable collector such as a removable tank; and, further to the module, - a directing device for directing said dispensable liquid from the delivery module to a dispensing area configured to receive a user-receptacle and for directing collectable liquid from the delivery module to the service area, optionally the directing device being located inside a machine frame and/or inside machine housing which is for instance provided, downstream the directing device, with an outlet through which said dispensable liquid is delivered from inside to outside the machine frame and/or machine housing and/or with a guide surface along which said collectable liquid is guided to the service area, characterised in that the directing device has a dispensing position for directing said dispensable liquid from the delivery module to said dispensing area and a collecting position for directing collectable liquid from the delivery module to the service area, the directing device further having only one evacuation portion, such as a single outlet opening, from which: - said dispensable liquid is evacuated from the directing device to said dispensing area when the directing device is in the dispensing position; and - said collectable liquid is evacuated to the service area when the directing device is in the collecting position. - a liquid delivery module for delivering said dispensable liquid from a source, such as a liquid tank, the delivery module having a mixing area delimited by a chamber, e.g. a brewing and/or infusion chamber, the chamber being arranged to delimit the mixing area for flavouring said liquid with a flavouring ingredient in the chamber, the chamber being delimited by an upstream part and a downstream part (17") that are relatively movable between a position for mixing and a position for loading into the chamber and/or unloading from the chamber said flavouring ingredient, optionally the delivery module comprising at least one of a liquid driver, such as a pump, and a liquid conditioner, such as a heater and/or a cooler; - a service area for collecting collectable liquid from the liquid delivery module, optionally the service area being associated with a removable collector such as a removable tank; and, further to the module, - a directing device for directing said dispensable liquid from the delivery module to a dispensing area configured to receive a user-receptacle and for directing collectable liquid from the delivery module to the service area, optionally the directing device being located inside a machine frame and/or inside machine housing which is for instance provided, downstream the directing device, with an outlet through which said dispensable liquid is delivered from inside to outside the machine frame and/or machine housing and/or with a guide surface along which said collectable liquid is guided to the service area, - said dispensable liquid is evacuated from the directing device to said dispensing area when the directing device is in the dispensing position; and - said collectable liquid is evacuated to the service area when the directing device is in the collecting position.
