1. A storage and release cap for insertion within a liquid or powder holding target container, for containing at least one substance to be dispensed into the container comprising, said cap comprising:
a cap bottom portion having a hollow body that is impermeable to liquid or gas and configured in any shape to fit within an opening of a targeted container, said bottom portion having a top receiving end and an bottom dispensing end;
said bottom dispensing end having a sealed bottom closure with a line of weakening;
a plunger mechanism having an elongated portion that is between a sealed bottom closure with a line of weakening and a closed top portion, creating a sealed interior chamber, wherein said elongated portion is sized to slidably fit within the hollow body of said bottom portion and said top portion is sized to fit around the rim of the top receiving end;
said plunger mechanism located within said bottom portion;
a rigid cover portion removably positioned on top of and sized to completely cover the top receiving end of the bottom portion and the top portion of the plunger mechanism;
wherein the cap is manually activated when downward manual force is applied to the plunger mechanism;
where downward manual force on the plunger mechanism engages and displaces the sealed bottom closure of the plunger mechanism and causes said elongated portion to extend vertically downward, engaging and displacing the sealed bottom closure of said release cap into a position that causes a substance or substances stored within said chamber to be released into the container below; and
a storage and release cap wherein said bottom portion additional includes a venting system of one or more indented areas running vertically along the exterior wall of the body of the bottom portion for release of air and gas build-up.
2. The storage and release cap of claim 1 , wherein said cap additionally includes including one or more corresponding pairs of interlocking male seal ring mechanisms, each ring mechanism having a ring running horizontally around the inside circumference of the bottom portion and an opposing cavity in the outside circumference area of the plunger mechanism.
3. The storage and release cap of claim 1 , wherein said cap additionally includes including one or more corresponding pairs of female interlocking seal ring mechanisms, each ring mechanism having a cavity running horizontally around the inside circumference of the bottom portion and an opposing ring on the outside circumference area of the plunger mechanism.
4. The storage and release cap of claim 1 , wherein the top portion of the plunger mechanism has a substantially flat surface relative to a horizontal plane of the top receiving end.
5. The storage and release cap of claim 1 , wherein the top portion of the plunger mechanism has an indented surface relative to a horizontal plane of the top receiving end.
6. The storage and release cap of claim 1 , wherein the top portion of the plunger mechanism has a raised surface relative to a horizontal plane of the top receiving end.
7. The storage and release cap of claim 1 , wherein the top portion of the plunger mechanism includes one or more openings.
8. The storage and release cap of claim 1 , wherein the plunger mechanism additionally includes a removable absorbent tip.
9. The storage and release cap of claim 1 , wherein the top portion of the plunger mechanism extends horizontally beyond the exterior wall of said plunger mechanism.
10. The storage and release cap of claim 1 , wherein the line of weakening sealed bottom closure of the bottom dispensing end includes one or more hinges for sealing a closure to the bottom of the bottom portion.
11. The storage and release cap of claim 1 , wherein the line of weakening sealed bottom closure of the bottom dispensing end is secured with an adhesive absorbent seal.
