PRECISION CONTROL AND CHARACTERIZATION OF DISPENSED SUBSTANCES

Method for dispensing a recipe includes measuring characterization data for components of a recipe. A signal representing an instruction to dispense the recipe is received at a processor operably coupled to a dispenser. In response to receiving the signal representing the instruction to dispense, an instruction set is generated based on the recipe and the characterization data. The instruction set is executed, to cause a series of delivery events of the components. Prior to each individual delivery event comprising the instruction set, a deviation, from their predetermined setpoints, is detected in a temperature and/or a pressure of the microfluidic dispenser. In response to detecting the deviation in temperature and/or pressure, the processor automatically causes an adjustment to one or more instructions from the instruction set based on the detected variation such that the amount of each component delivered more closely conforms to the amount specified in the recipe.
