  • the pressing is done with only slightly higher force than would be required when inserting the container into a receptacle without Anpressmechanismus because the container is introduced by the user substantially horizontally in the container receptacle and by the ramp even at a low pitch angle sufficient Contact pressure results.
  • the ramp is an integral part of the beverage storage container.
  • the container bottom can be selected so that it drops slightly even when pressed against the housing opening. This eliminates the problem that in the bottom area of the container often ends up leaving a considerable residual amount of the beverage that can not be removed.
  • the outlet opening of the beverage storage container is arranged near the bottom in the front area. Due to the container bottom sloping down towards the housing opening and thus to the outlet system, it collects towards the end of the dispensing process remaining remainder of the beverage near the outlet system. Thus, a nearly complete output of the stored beverage without substantial residual amount is possible.
  • the guide is formed by the bottom of the container receptacle.
