A brewing device includes a base portion with a support surface. A carafe is configured to be selectively supported on the support surface. A filter basket is removeably supported on an upper portion of the carafe. An immersion chamber is fluidically coupled to an outlet disposed over the filter basket. A water reservoir is fluidically coupled to both the immersion chamber and the outlet disposed over the filter basket. A pump is in fluid communication with the water reservoir and operable to selectively advance water to one of the outlet disposed over the filter basket and the immersion chamber from the water reservoir. The brewing device is configured to brew a beverage using a pour-over brewing method, an immersion brewing method, or a filtered immersion brewing method.

A coffee maker and method of operating the same is disclosed. The method includes deactivating a heating plate of the coffee maker when a drip pan is positioned thereon, soliciting a user-selection of a serving size from a plurality of serving sizes when the drip pan is positioned on the base, and operating a pump of the coffee maker to advance fluid to a filter basket in accordance with the selected serving size.

A drip filter coffee making device has a filter basket with a lid. The lid supports a water dispenser for wetting grounds in the filter basket. The basket is removable from a body of the device. The lid may have a dampened opening motion, biased into an open positon by a spring.

A pour-over coffee brewer apparatus comprises a base containing a motor that drives a coffee grinder via a set of gear assemblies, a vertical support structure extending upwards from a rear portion of the base, and a horizontal support structure extending out from a top portion of the vertical support structure, the horizontal support structure comprising a grinder for grinding coffee beans and a water dispenser for dispensing water onto ground coffee beans. The set of gear assemblies comprises a first gear assembly in the base, a second gear assembly in the horizontal support structure, and a gear shaft in the vertical support structure that couples the first gear assembly and the second gear assembly.

A machine for preparing beverages includes at least one tank for the water, fluidly connected, by means of a circuit, to a filtering container suitable to contain an aromatic mixture to be brewed, a pump to feed the water from said tank to said circuit, a heating device to heat the water in transit, and a control and command unit functionally connected to a user interface comprising commands suitable to select the characteristics of said beverage to be prepared.

A kitchen appliance includes a first reservoir for receiving a liquid to be used for preparing a beverage. A hot water generator (HWG) has an inlet end, an outlet end and a passageway extending therebetween. The inlet end of the HWG is connected to the first reservoir. Liquid from the first reservoir flows into the HWG through the inlet end. A second reservoir is connected to the outlet end of the HWG. The second reservoir includes a discharge port, a gas vent and a skirt extending from a wall of the second reservoir further than the gas vent. The skirt at least partially surrounds the gas vent. At least a portion of the skirt is spaced laterally inwardly from an outer sidewall of the second reservoir.

The present invention provides an auto coffee drip apparatus comprising: a housing; a dripper tray module which is fixed to an external one side of the housing and in which a dripper storing the coffee powders is seated; a drip head module which is provided on an upper part of the dripper tray module so as to be spaced apart by a predetermined interval and injects water into the dripper; and a boiler module which is provided inside the housing and is connected to the drip head module to supply the heated water to the drip head module.

A coffee extraction apparatus includes: a first burr grinding supplied whole beans, a first burr through-hole defined in the first burr, a first burr inlet receiving the whole beans, a first burr outlet discharging coffee powder, a second burr inserted into the first burr through-hole through the first burr outlet to define a grinding space for grinding of the whole beans with the first burr, a burr coupler coupled to the second burr to move the second burr, a first rotary part coupled to the first burr to rotate the first burr, a second rotary part connected to the burr coupler and rotating to move the burr coupler in an axial direction of the first burr to adjust a depth of insertion of the second burr into the first burr, an extractor that receives and mixes the coffee powder and water to extract coffee liquid.

A kitchen appliance includes a first reservoir for receiving a liquid to be used for preparing a beverage. A hot water generator (HWG) has an inlet end, an outlet end and a passageway extending therebetween. The inlet end of the HWG is connected to the first reservoir. Liquid from the first reservoir flows into the HWG through the inlet end. A selector valve is connected to the outlet end of the HWG. At least a portion of the selector valve is movable by a user between a first valve position and a second valve position.

An automatic coffee brewing device includes an electronic control mechanism, a rotating mechanism, a coffee filter paper installation mechanism, a coffee powder feeding mechanism, a brewing mechanism, a coffee holding mechanism, and a filter cup processing mechanism, and all are integrated on a support mechanism. The coffee brewing procedure is set via the electronic control mechanism, and the container is placed in the coffee holding mechanism. The rotating mechanism drives the filter cup movement, allowing the coffee filter paper installation mechanism to place filter paper in the filter cup, and the coffee powder feeding mechanism fills coffee grounds into the filter paper. The brewing mechanism then adds water to brew the coffee grounds, allowing the coffee liquid to be collected in the container. Subsequently, the filter cup processing mechanism cleans the used filter cup, thereby achieving the effects of labor savings, maintaining brewing quality, and improving brewing capacity.
