Exemplary slurry delivery systems may include a slurry source. The systems may include a slurry line coupled with the slurry source. The systems may include a slurry dispensing nozzle. The nozzle may include a lumen having an inlet that is fluidly coupled with a slurry outlet of the slurry line. The nozzle may include a body defining a reservoir and an exit port. The reservoir may be fluidly coupled with a downstream end of the lumen. The exit port may be coupled with the reservoir. The nozzle may include a valve seat. The nozzle may include a valve member having a first surface positioned against the valve seat when in a closed position. The valve member may be movable to an open position in which the first surface is spaced apart from the valve seat. The nozzle may include an actuator coupled with a second surface of the valve member.
