Abstract

See full text

The invention includes a container for storing liquids, the container including a blending chamber for holding a larger volume of liquid, and an opening that can be selectively sealed or unsealed. The container also includes a sampling chamber for holding a smaller volume of liquid, and another opening that can be selectively sealed or unsealed. The blending chamber is located within and is at least partially surrounded by the sampling chamber. Fluidically connecting the blending chamber and the sampling chamber is a siphon having an upper opening in the blending chamber and a lower opening in the sampling chamber. The siphon includes a siphoning level, which is a fluid height in the blending chamber at which liquid will siphon from the blending chamber to the sampling chamber.
