1. A fluid material dispensing apparatus (100), comprising:
a first nozzle (150);
a second nozzle (150);
a pump (110), coupled between an outlet connector (182) of a material container (180) and the first nozzle (150), and arranged to operably extract a fluid material from the material container (180) and to operably push the fluid material to flow toward the first nozzle (150);
a material-temperature adjustment device (140), coupled with the first nozzle (150);
a water-temperature adjustment device (540), coupled between a water input port (502) and the second nozzle (150); and
a control circuit (470), coupled with the pump (110), the material-temperature adjustment device (140), and the water-temperature adjustment device (540), and arranged to operably control the pump (110);
wherein the control circuit (470) is further arranged to operably control the material-temperature adjustment device (140) to adjust a temperature of the fluid material transmitted from the pump (110) to produce and output temperature-adjusted material to the first nozzle (150), so that the first nozzle (150) outputs the temperature-adjusted material to the target container (190); and
wherein the control circuit (470) is further arranged to operably control the water-temperature adjustment device (540) to adjust a temperature of water transmitted from the water input port (502) to produce and output temperature-adjusted water to the second nozzle (150), so that the second nozzle (150) outputs the temperature-adjusted water to the target container (190).
