A dispenser for a liquid or viscous soap. The dispenser includes a disposable soap container having a discharge end and a feed pump for pumping a dose of soap out of the discharge end, a housing for receiving the soap container via a front aperture in the housing, and a cover for closing the front aperture of the housing. This cover is pivotally mounted about a horizontal swing axis extending across an upper edge in the front aperture of the housing. Furthermore, the cover is arranged to be able to swing between a first swing position in which the front aperture is clear, a second swing position in which the front aperture is covered and the cover is in contact with the pump, and at least a third swing position in which the cover has activated the feed pump. The dispenser has a simple, inexpensive design with no wearing parts that require maintenance.

The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein moving the comestible fluid includes moving the comestible fluid through a fluid line, past the temperature sensor, and toward a dispensing nozzle outlet. 8. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein at least one of actuating a valve to open and actuating a valve to close includes operating a user-manipulatable control. 9. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein purging the comestible fluid occurs for an amount of time controlled by a user-manipulatable control. 10. The method as claimed in claim 1, further comprising controlling a length of time during which the comestible fluid is purged from the comestible fluid dispensing apparatus with a timer. 11. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein purging the comestible fluid includes purging the comestible fluid until the temperature sensor detects a second temperature of the comestible fluid. 12. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the valve is located at a dispensing outlet of a nozzle. 13. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein purging the comestible fluid includes purging the comestible fluid through a purge fluid line located upstream of a dispensing outlet of a nozzle. 14. A method of dispensing comestible fluid from a comestible fluid dispensing apparatus, comprising: moving comestible fluid through a fluid line past a sensor of the comestible fluid dispensing apparatus, the sensor positioned to detect at least one of air and gas in the fluid line; detecting at least one of air and gas in the fluid line with the sensor; actuating a valve of the comestible fluid dispensing apparatus to an open position responsive to detection of at least one of air and gas in the fluid line by the sensor; purging at least one of air and gas from the comestible fluid dispensing apparatus via the valve; and dispensing comestible fluid from the comestible fluid dispensing apparatus. 15. The method as claimed in claim 14, further comprising automatically sending a signal from the sensor to automatically actuate the valve when at least one of air and gas is detected in the fluid line by the sensor. 16. The method as claimed in claim 15, wherein automatically sending a signal includes transmitting a signal to a system controller and associated timer. 17. The method as claimed in claim 16, wherein purging at least one of air and gas includes purging at least one of air and gas for an amount of time controlled by the system controller and associated timer. 18. The method as claimed in claim 14, further comprising opening the valve prior to dispensing comestible fluid from the comestible fluid dispensing apparatus to prime the apparatus and remove the at least one of air and gas from the fluid line. 19. The method as claimed in claim 14, wherein moving the comestible fluid includes moving the comestible fluid through the fluid line, past the sensor, and toward an outlet of a dispensing nozzle. 20. The method as claimed in claim 14, further comprising displaying a recommended purge to a user for user-controlled actuation of the valve. 21. The method as claimed in claim 14, wherein purging at least one of air and gas from the comestible fluid dispensing apparatus includes purging at least one of air and gas directly from a portion of the fluid line upstream of a dispensing nozzle. 22. A comestible fluid dispensing apparatus for dispensing and purging a comestible fluid, the apparatus comprising: a fluid line through which comestible fluid passes in the comestible fluid dispensing apparatus; a temperature sensor positioned to sense comestible fluid temperature in the fluid line; and at least one valve in fluid communication with the fluid line, the at least one valve actuatable to open and to close responsive to at least one temperature detected by the temperature sensor. 23. The apparatus as claimed in claim 22, wherein the temperature sensor is adapted to send a signal regardi
