Patent ID: 7389647

Claim:
A closed cooling and remote dispensing system for dispensing a plurality of beverages, each beverage may be alcoholic or non-alcoholic and is stored in a corresponding container remote from a dispensing tower, comprising: a main chiller for chilling a coolant for circulation in a closed and sealed loop to and from said tower; a primary trunk coupled in said closed and sealed loop, said primary trunk bundling supply and return lines of said coolant and product lines for delivering the plurality of beverages in heat exchange relationship with said coolant to said tower; and, a heat exchanger coupled in said closed and sealed loop and in fluid communication to receive a corresponding one beverage for flash chilling a temperature of the corresponding one beverage to a temperature of the coolant in said closed loop before the corresponding one beverage enters a corresponding one product line of said primary trunk, said heat exchanger is a first heat exchanger of a plurality of heat exchangers, wherein each heat exchanger of said plurality of heat exchangers receives a corresponding different one beverage for independently flash chilling a temperature of the corresponding different one beverage to the temperature of the coolant in said close loop before the corresponding one different beverage enters a corresponding different one product line of said primary trunk.
