In order to apply decorative effects to a multilayered coffee surface, more particulary to a crema, a focused air jet for drawing or writing is contactlessly guided across the surface, wherein the air jet pressure at the action point is selected to overcome the surface tension of the multilayered surface and to produce swirls between the individual layers. To carry out this method, a wand is used as a writing implement, the wand containing a compressed air source and a switching element, more particularly a control valve for the airjet, and a small airflow tube (9, 15, 21) protruding from the housing (1, 10, 16) of the wand as a drawing- or writing nib. The compressed air source can comprise a pump (2), and a compressed air vessel (6) connected thereto, the vessel having a non-return valve (5) for the pump (2), and a control valve (7) for the small airflow tube (9). The compressed air source can also be a replaceable capsule (12) filled with compressed air. It is particularly effective if a blower (19) driven by a battery-powered electric motor (18) is accommodated in the housing (16) of the wand as a compressed air source.

The invention relates to a method and a cleaning device for cleaning, disinfecting and rinsing a milk-conducting system of a coffee machine for producing mixed coffee beverages, in which a fluid back flow is generated at the milk outlet such that the fluid at least partly flows through the milk inlet in order to rinse the milk-conducting system.

A coffee dispensing apparatus includes a base and an at least one nozzle. Further, base and nozzle are arranged such that the dispensed coffee flows via inner upstanding wall of a standard sized coffee container.

A member with a first body having a through hole along a longitudinal axis thereof along which a beverage is fed from a percolation chamber. A first cup-shaped body is axially aligned under the first body, and a ball, which stops the flow of the beverage under the bias of a spring, is between the hole and the inside of the first cup-shaped body until the beverage reaches a given pressure. A second cup-shaped body houses the lower part of the first body and the first cup-shaped body and internally defines a chamber. A first through window is defined in the first cup-shaped body under the stopping zone of the flow in the hole; and a second through window is defined in the second cup-shaped body, through which contact between the beverage and air is made and is suited to feed the beverage from the chamber outwards.

An apparatus for preparing beverages comprises a water induction heater, a pump for feeding the water to the heater, a logic unit for controlling said heater and said pump, a device for heating and/or frothing milk, wherein said logic unit is configured for controlling the pump and the heater so that it is produced steam for heating and/or frothing the milk fed into said device.

The present invention relates to an easy unloading high pressure coffee brewing machine with foam creation function, comprises an installation stand for connection to the environment, a brewing bucket, an unloading mechanism, a pressurizing mechanism and a foam creation mechanism, the brewing bucket has a double open-ended structure; the unloading mechanism is disposed at the bottom opening of the brewing bucket, the unloading mechanism comprises an unloading plate, a funnel; the pressurizing mechanism is disposed at the top opening of the brewing bucket, the pressurizing mechanism comprises a platen, a pressurizing cover; the foam creation mechanism comprises a sleeve opened at two ends, a filter basket sleeved onto the top of the inside of the sleeve, a foamer mesh cover sleeved to a bottom of the inside of the sleeve, an air pump; the structure is reasonable, having advantages of simple, convenient, has multiple functions, unloading is convenient, and good brewing performance, effectively solving the problem of brewing mechanisms of existing coffee machines being hard to unload dreg and cannot produce large amount of foam.

Enables a coffee making apparatus with a froth spoon and at least one impeller configured to enable users to make a cup of coffee, agitate the coffee grounds with the at least one impeller, for example before or after as the plunger is pushed to the bottom of the carafe. Embodiments thus enable a user to make additional froth, pour out the coffee into a cup, and after the cup is filled to the desired level, spoon out froth over the coffee with the froth spoon without pouring excess coffee into the cup.

Provided is a milk-based drink production device with a connection system designed to work with a steam output nozzle tip of a coffee maker, where said connection system has a connected position, in which a watertight connection is formed between the steam output nozzle tip and the device, and a disconnected position, in which the device may be separated from the steam output nozzle tip, and the device contains a frothing system which shifts between an installed position on the device and a position removed from the device. The device contains extraction safety mechanisms which prevent the frothing system from moving from the installed position to the removed position when the connection system is in the connected position and/or connection safety mechanisms which prevent the connection system from moving from the disconnected position to the connected position when the frothing system is not in the installed position.

Coffee machine including a housing frame and device for generating coffee, and an integrated device for dispensing milk froth onto a coffee drink in a container. This device, possibly in the form of a robot, includes a dispenser controllable to enable automated movement in two or three coordinate directions, and dispenses the milk froth directly onto a surface of the coffee drink previously poured into the container. An automated movement mechanism controls movement of the dispenser during dispensing of the milk froth to cause automatic and controlled addition of a specific amount of the milk froth onto the coffee drink surface and produce an aesthetically decorative graphic pattern thereon. The specific amount of milk froth remains on and/or beneath the coffee drink surface. The coffee drink is poured into the container and the graphic pattern of milk forth is produced on the coffee drink surface by the same coffee machine.

An apparatus is provided with an outlet, in particular for milk froth, which apparatus can be moved in two or three coordinate directions (x, y, z) using a control unit. When dispensing the fluid, a graphic pattern can thus be created automatically on the surface of the beverage dispensed into the container, preferably coffee. A pivotably housed guide sleeve and a hose element are provided with the outlet, which element can be pivoted in the sleeve and through which element the milk froth passes. This outlet can be moved with the hose element and the guide sleeve in a plane in these two coordinate directions (x, y) above the container in controlled manner, and the milk froth can thus be dispensed into the container. The result is a compact structure of the apparatus and this can be integrated into a coffee machine in a very space-saving manner.
