摘要:
Improvements in a beverage brewing machine. In accordance with the invention, the brewing machine (10) is able to brew a larger single cup of beverage, without affecting the quality of the beverage. The brewing machine includes an upper brewing chamber (12), and a lower second chamber (11) below the upper chamber (12) and filter means (20) between the upper and lower chambers. To increase the amount of beverage brewed, the size of the lower chamber (11) is increased by increasing the cross-sectional area of the lower chamber. However, the area of the upper opening (16) of the lower chamber is not increased. Specifically, a flange (15) extends inwardly from the top of the wall of the lower chamber to thereby cover a portion of the upper end of the bore of the lower chamber.

A vacuum-type coffee maker (10) includes an upper brewing unit (12) and a lower carafe (14). The upper brewing unit (12) includes a vessel (20) and a collar (38) disposed around a lower portion (24) of the vessel (20). The collar (38) includes a magnetic array (M4, M5) defining an upper magnetic coupler (110). The lower carafe (14) includes a vessel (60) having a collar (64) disposed around an upper portion (62) of the vessel (60). The collar (64) further includes a magnetic array (M1-M3) to define a lower magnetic coupler (94). In assembly, the upper magnetic coupler (110) is magnetically coupled to the lower magnetic coupler (94) when the upper brewing unit (12) is received on the lower carafe (14). A heating element (200) is disposed in a base portion (66) of the lower carafe (14). The lower carafe (14) is removeably received on a support stand (16), and the heating element (200) of the lower carafe (14) is powered by the support stand (16) in use during a brewing sequence.

The bowl is created on the basis of a holder or receptacle that forms a type of cylindrical well (1), with a flat bottom (2), from which emerges downwards a tube/plunger (3) intended to extend as far as close to the bottom (4) of the water chamber (5) of the coffee maker. The bottom (2) of the well (1) is attached to the side wall (7) thereof via an edge (8), markedly rounded, in correspondence with the curvature of the perimetric border of the container (9) of the dose of coffee, which adopts a discoid configuration. The well has different heights depending on the number of doses of coffee it is wished to prepare.
摘要:
To let the water pass quickly through the ground coffee layer at a temperature below 100°C, the water is heated to the desired temperature and is then vacuum drawn through the powdered coffee, the vacuum being generated by steam cooling and condensation. A coffee machine, consisting of an upper vessel (2) which can be tightly connected to a lower vessel (1) with the interposition of a coffee filter basket (4) is fitted with a rising transfer tube (9) extending from just above the bottom of the lower vessel (1) upwards to the upper vessel (2) and with a shut-off valve (13) which opens in direction of the upper vessel (2), while this upper vessel (2) is communicating by means of a siphon (19, 20) with the coffee filter basket (4) which, in turn, is at its lower end connected to the lower vessel (1) by means of a non-return valve (17, 18) that can be opened in direction of the lower vessel (1).

In described embodiments, a hot liquid extraction system includes a vessel, a controllable steam and water source external from the vessel which heats the liquid of the corresponding vessel, a filter assembly disposed within the vessel operable to filter and remove a solid from the brewed beverage, and a valve to dispense the filtered beverage from the base of the brew vessel. Some embodiments include one or more valves operable to regulate water flow and steam into the brewing vessel, and a filter operable to separate a brewed liquid from a flavor base and to remove a spent flavor base from the system. Some embodiments include processor control of the system, allowing for operation tailored to individual user requirements that might be downloaded to the processor through various wired and non-wired interfaces.
