A filling device for filling containers with a liquid has a first port for supplying a first liquid to the filling device, and a second port spaced from the first port for supplying a second liquid to the filling device. A mixing chamber within the filling device includes a first liquid channel which guides the first liquid from the first port to the mixing chamber, and a second liquid channel which guides the second liquid from the second port to the mixing chamber, wherein the first liquid channel and the second liquid channel guide the first liquid and the second liquid separately from one another. A valve body controls discharge of the liquids from the filling device through an outlet to the container. The valve body is disposed at least partially between the mixing chamber and the outlet.

1. A filling device for filling containers with a liquid and in particular a beverage, including a first port in order to supply a first liquid to the filling device, a second port in order to supply a second liquid to the filling device, with the first port and the second port being spaced from one another, with a mixing chamber formed within the filling device, in which the liquids may be mixed, including a first liquid channel which guides the first liquid from the first port to the mixing chamber, a second liquid channel which guides the second liquid from the second port to the mixing chamber, wherein the first liquid channel and the second liquid channel guide the first liquid and the second liquid separately from one another, and a filling valve for controlling the discharge of the liquids from the filling device, and with an outlet for discharging the liquids to the container, wherein the filling valve is disposed at least partially between the mixing chamber and the outlet, and wherein the second port is disposed closer to the mixing chamber than the first port,wherein the first liquid channel is fluid connected to a first reservoir, and the second liquid channel is fluid connected to a second reservoir, the second reservoir being arranged vertically higher than the first reservoir, andwherein the first liquid channel is shorter than the second liquid channel in the longitudinal direction (L) of the filling device. 2. The filling device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the filling device includes an actuation element for actuation of the filling valve, and this actuation element extends at least partially within the second liquid channel. 3. The filling device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the filling device includes a further channel for guiding a gaseous medium. 4. The filling device as claimed in claim 3, wherein the first liquid channel surrounds the second liquid channel at least in sections. 5. The filling device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the second liquid channel is used for transporting a liquid containing particles. 6. The filling device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first liquid channel extends at an angle in sections. 7. The filling device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first liquid channel and the second liquid channel are arranged in a common housing. 8. The filling device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the mixing chamber is adjacent to the filling valve. 9. The filling device as claimed in claim 2, wherein a bellows for sealing the actuation element is provided inside the first liquid channel. 10. The filling device as claimed in claim 2, wherein on the inside of the second liquid channel, a centering element movable relative to the second liquid channel is provided for centering the position of the filling valve. 11. The filling device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the filling device includes first and second liquid lines separated from one another which guide the liquids to the ports. 12. The filling device as claimed in claim 11, wherein a flow measuring device is disposed in the first liquid line, which determines the quantity of liquid passing through the flow measuring device in two flow directions (R1, R2) opposite to one another. 13. The filling device as claimed in claim 12, wherein the first liquid line is formed in such a way that in a working operation and independently from the flow direction (R1, R2), only one of the liquids passes through the flow measuring device. 14. The filling device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the filling valve has a sealing washer, which in the closed state of the filling valve pushes against a housing section and thus closes the valve. 15. The filling device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the filling device is capable for mixing and bottling carbonated liquid. 16. The filling device as claimed in claim 12, wherein the flow measuring device is an inductive flow meter. 17. The filling device as claimed in claim 12, wherein the filling device comprises a control device that receives the measurement signals of the flow measuring device and drives the filling valve. 18. The filling device as claimed in claim 12, wherein the length of the first liquid line is dimensioned such that the product present in the second liquid line will not itself be pushed through the flow measuring device. 19. The filling device as claimed in claim 1, comprising a return gas channel for removing return gas. 20. The filling device as claimed in claim 1, comprising a load cell, to determine the amount of the supplied liquid. 21. A filling device for filling containers with a liquid and in particular a beverage, including a first port in order to supply a first liquid to the filling device, a second port in order to supply a second liquid to the filling device, with the first port and the second port being spaced from one another, with a mixing chamber formed within the filling device, in which the liquids may be mixed, including a first liquid channel which guides the first liquid from the first port to the mixing chamber, a second liquid channel which guides the second liquid from the second port to the mixing chamber, wherein the first liquid channel and the second liquid channel guide the first liquid and the second liquid separately from one another, and a filling valve for controlling the discharge of the liquids from the filling device, and with an outlet for discharging the liquids to the container, wherein the filling valve is disposed at least partially between the mixing chamber and the outlet, and wherein the second port is disposed closer to the mixing chamber than the first port, andwherein the filling device further includes an actuation element for actuation of the filling valve, which actuation element extends at least partially within the second liquid channel, andwherein the first liquid channel is fluid connected to a first reservoir, and the second liquid channel is fluid connected to a second reservoir, the second reservoir being arranged vertically higher than the first reservoir. 22. The filling device as claimed in claim 21, wherein the actuation element extends geometrically within the first liquid. 23. The filling device as claimed in claim 21, wherein the actuation element is connected to the valve in such a way that an actuation of the actuation element also causes a corresponding movement of the valve. 24. The filling device as claimed in claim 1, wherein, by virtue of its outlet geometry, no product will be present upon sealing at the end of the filling process, so that a gas barrier may be dispensed with.
