a supply chamber for receiving a supply of the detergent;
an extracting mechanism for extracting a dose of the detergent from the supply and for delivering the extracted dose into a fall channel; and
a fan for generating a blowing air stream, wherein the extracting mechanism has a movably arranged extracting member having at least one dosing pocket dimensioned to receive a dose of the detergent, wherein, by driving the extracting member, the dosing pocket is movable from a receiving position, in which the dosing pocket is open towards the supply chamber, into a delivery position, in which the dosing pocket is open towards the fall channel, wherein a blowing air inlet which is able to be charged with blowing air by the fan opens into the fall channel downstream—based on the direction of fall of the detergent in the fall channel—of the extracting member.
