Abstract: A system is provided for analyzing coffee beans. A light sensor senses a level of darkness of a coffee bean and a distance sensor is used to determine a distance between the light sensor and the coffee bean. The sensed level of darkness is then calibrated using the determined distance, thereby to obtain a calibrated (and thereby more accurate) level of darkness. This represents a roasting intensity and is used by a coffee machine to adjust coffee brewing parameters.

Abstract: The invention discloses a beverage making device that includes a brew chamber that enables a beverage brewing process. The brew chamber has a beverage outlet that lets out a brewed beverage at the end of the beverage brewing process. A rinsing procedure is performed in which the brew chamber is rinsed with water prior to or after the beverage brewing process. During the rinsing procedure, a discharge of rinsing water from the brew chamber takes place at another position on the brew chamber than a position of a beverage outlet. The other position on the brew chamber than the position of the beverage outlet is an upstream position on the brew chamber as seen in a direction of water and brewed beverage through the beverage making device associated with the beverage brewing process. The rinsing water is discharged based on a control of operation of the beverage making device.

Abstract: A beverage carbonating device includes a carbon dioxide production unit and a pressure container. The carbon dioxide production unit produces carbon dioxide gas by mixing at least two reactants. The pressure container stores the produced carbon dioxide gas in a pressurized gaseous state. As a detachable module, the pressure container is sealingly detachable from the carbon dioxide production unit. Accordingly, the carbon dioxide gas is stored and sealed in the pressure container when detached from the carbon dioxide production unit. Further, a beverage vessel is used with the beverage carbonating device.
