Claim:
A method for dispensing liquid cryogen into a container prior to sealing, comprising; forming droplets of cryogen liquid and dispensing them in a generally vertical direction from a dosing head; providing a transport pathway for redirecting the flow of said dispensed droplets from the generally vertical to a generally horizontal direction, said pathway in fluid communication with said dosing head, and having a predetermined length defined by first and second ends; positioning the transport pathway below the dispensing head so as to receive the droplets dispensed from said dosing head, directing the dispensed droplets to said pathway at a point near a first end of the pathway, transporting the liquid droplets along the length of the pathway to its second end; and, thereafter directing the flow of said liquid droplets for injection into a container; wherein the flow of said liquid droplets is directed to a generally horizontal path for injection into a container.
