A probe for use in a system for dispensing water from a water bottle having a neck extending to an open mouth covered by a cap. The system includes a water bottle receptacle adapted to hold an inverted water bottle. The probe is positioned centrally and upright within the receptacle so as to be inserted through the mouth and pierce or lift a central portion of the cap of the bottle when said bottle is positioned in an inverted position within said receptacle. The probe comprises an elongate vertically upright tubular member extending from an upper portion to a lower seat portion, said upper portion being positioned within the bottle when said bottle is positioned within the receptacle, said upper portion defining an opening therein, in communication with a passageway within the tubular member, said passageway extending through to a lower opening defined in the seat portion. The upper portion of the tubular member including an upwardly tapering head, and a compressible resilient portion positioned below said head, connecting the head to the tubular member. The compressible resilient portion allows the head to have its angular orientation altered relative to the vertical axis of the tubular member if the head is subject to non vertically oriented forces when the probe inserted through the mouth of the bottle.
