An appliance including a housing, a dispenser, and a water supply mechanism. The appliance includes a drink supply mechanism configured to removably hold a plurality of drink supply containers, a user interface panel, and a computer. The computer is configured to: cause the user interface panel to display a plurality of different images, each image associated with a different one of a plurality of different beverages which correspond to a drink supply in at least one of the plurality of drink supply containers held by the drink supply mechanism, enable the user interface panel to receive an input from a user of a selected one of the plurality of different displayed images, and after receiving the input from the user of the selected one of the plurality of different displayed images, cause the dispenser to dispense the beverage corresponding to the selected image.
1. An appliance comprising: a housing;a user interface panel supported by the housing and including a touch screen; anda computer programmed to operate with the user interface panel to:(a) control operation of: (i) a dispensing mechanism at least partially coupled to the user interface panel, (ii) a
1. An appliance comprising: a housing;a user interface panel supported by the housing and including a touch screen; anda computer programmed to operate with the user interface panel to:(a) control operation of: (i) a dispensing mechanism at least partially coupled to the user interface panel, (ii) a water supply mechanism in fluid communication with the dispensing mechanism, and (iii) a drink supply mechanism in fluid communication with the dispensing mechanism, said drink supply mechanism configured to obtain drink supply from each of a plurality of replaceable drink supply containers;(b) cause the user interface panel to display a plurality of different images, each image associated with a different one of a plurality of different drink supplies in the plurality of drink supply containers, wherein the drink supply in each of the drink supply containers is a concentrate,(c) receive, via the touch screen, at least one input of a selection of one of said plurality of different displayed images,(d) cause the dispensing mechanism to dispense a first beverage corresponding to the selected one of said plurality of different displayed images,(e) receive a drink supply code for a replacement drink supply container, said drink supply code being associated with said replacement drink supply container,(f) determine if said received drink supply code is valid by comparing said received drink supply code to one or more drink supply authorization codes associated with one or more authorized replacement drink supply containers for the appliance, and(g) if the received drink supply code is valid, enable the dispensing mechanism to dispense a second beverage using a drink supply in said replacement drink supply container. 2. The appliance of claim 1, wherein said computer is programmed to cause the user interface panel to display an error message if the received drink supply code for said replacement drink supply container is not valid. 3. The appliance of claim 1, wherein said computer is programmed to prevent the dispensing mechanism from dispensing the second beverage using the drink supply in said replacement drink supply container if the received drink supply code is not valid. 4. The appliance of claim 3, wherein said computer is programmed to cause the user interface panel to display an error message if the received drink supply code for said replacement drink supply container is not valid. 5. The appliance of claim 1, wherein said computer is programmed to receive, from a remote server, the one or more drink supply authorization codes corresponding to the one or more authorized replacement drink supply containers. 6. The appliance of claim 1, wherein the computer is programmed to operate with a sensor to sense the drink supply authorization code from at least one of the one or more authorized replacement drink supply containers. 7. The appliance of claim 6, wherein the sensor includes a bar code reader. 8. The appliance of claim 1, wherein at least one of the one or more drink supply authorization codes is preloaded in the computer. 9. The appliance of claim 1, wherein said computer is programmed to create at least one of the one or more drink supply authorization codes. 10. The appliance of claim 1, wherein at least one of the one or more drink supply authorization codes is a twelve digit number. 11. The appliance of claim 1, wherein at least one of the one or more drink supply authorization codes is encoded on at least one of the one or more authorized replacement drink supply containers. 12. The appliance of claim 1, which has a unique identification. 13. The appliance of claim 1, wherein the computer is programmed to operate with the user interface panel to receive, via the touch screen, a change drink supply container input. 14. The appliance of claim 13, wherein said computer is programmed to cause the dispensing mechanism to be locked when the user interface panel receives the change drink supply container input. 15. The appliance of claim 14, wherein said computer is programmed to operate with the user interface panel to receive, via the touch screen, a drink supply container change complete input. 16. The appliance of claim 15, wherein said computer is programmed to cause the dispensing mechanism to be unlocked after receiving the drink supply container change complete input. 17. The appliance of claim 1, wherein the first beverage and the second beverage are the same beverage. 18. An appliance comprising: a housing;a user interface panel supported by the housing and including a touch screen; anda computer programmed to operate with the user interface panel to:(a) control operation of: (i) a dispensing mechanism at least partially coupled to the user interface panel, (ii) a water supply mechanism in fluid communication with the dispensing mechanism, and (iii) a drink supply mechanism in fluid communication with the dispensing mechanism, said drink supply mechanism configured to obtain drink supply from each of a plurality of replaceable drink supply containers;(b) cause the user interface panel to display a plurality of different images, each image associated with a different one of a plurality of different drink supplies in the plurality of drink supply containers, wherein the drink supply in each of the drink supply containers is a concentrate,(c) receive, via the touch screen, at least one input of a selection of one of said plurality of different displayed images,(d) cause the dispensing mechanism to dispense a first beverage corresponding to the selected one of said plurality of different displayed images,(e) receive a drink supply code for a replacement drink supply container to be held in the drink supply mechanism, said drink supply code being associated with said replacement drink supply container,(f) determine if said received drink supply code is valid, and(g) if the received drink supply code is valid, enable the dispensing mechanism to dispense a second beverage using a drink supply in said replacement drink supply container. 19. The appliance of claim 18, wherein said computer is programmed to cause the user interface panel to display an error message if the received drink supply code for said replacement drink supply container is not valid. 20. The appliance of claim 18, wherein said computer is programmed to prevent the dispensing mechanism from dispensing the second beverage using the drink supply in said replacement drink supply container if the received drink supply code is not valid. 21. The appliance of claim 20, wherein said computer is programmed to cause the user interface panel to display an error message if the received drink supply code for said replacement drink supply container is not valid. 22. The appliance of claim 18, which has a unique identification. 23. The appliance of claim 18, wherein the computer is programmed to operate with the user interface panel to receive, via the touch screen, a change drink supply container input. 24.
