Foamed liquid dispensing system

A foamed liquid dispensing system includes a container for receiving a liquid to be dispensed connectable to, and removable from, a gas charging unit. The gas charging unit includes a gas compressor, gas pressure sensing means, a control unit and a user interface. The user interface permits a user to input a desired final gas pressure from a minimum value to a maximum value in discrete steps. The control unit instructs the gas compressor to charge the container with gas to the desired final pressure. The gas pressure is continuously monitored and the flow of gas into the container is stopped once the desired final gas pressure has been reached. The user interface displays the gas pressure in the container as the charging cycle proceeds. Once charged with gas and removed from the gas charging unit, the container substantially retains the final desired gas pressure until the liquid is dispensed.
