pourings
Streams from vessels
Pourings are quantities of liquid dispensed at one time, or the acts of dispensing them: generous pourings of wine, multiple pourings from the same pot.
The word often appears in contexts involving beverages or industrial processes where liquid is transferred in measured or repeated amounts.
