The disclosure generally relates to a beverage dispensing system for parallel beverage extraction. The beverage dispensing system may include two brew chambers configured to both prepare beverage components at the same time. The beverage dispensing system may include two dispensing points configured to simultaneously dispense beverage components prepared by a first brew chamber and a second brew chamber. In some embodiments, a beverage dispensing system configured to prepare beverage components in one brew chamber can be modified to include one or more components, features, and/or functionalities from the beverage dispensing system for parallel beverage extraction.

Disclosed herein are methods of beverage preparation and beverage preparation devices and systems. Example devices and systems described herein can include a first beverage preparation utility configured to automatically perform at least one beverage preparation routine; and a second beverage preparation utility configured to automatically perform at least one beverage preparation routine. The devices and systems can include at least one controller communicatively coupled to at least one of the first beverage preparation utility or the second beverage preparation utility. The at least one controller is configured to cause the first beverage preparation utility to perform at least one beverage preparation routine based at least in part on the at least one beverage preparation routine performed by the second beverage preparation utility.

The invention is a moka coffee pot apparatus comprising improved sealing characteristics. The moka pot includes a lower water boiling chamber and a brewing insert that extends into the lower chamber and holds an amount of ground coffee. The moka pot also includes an upper chamber for receiving brewed coffee. Advantageously, the moka pot includes first and second attachments and a sealing ring that act as a locking mechanism to provide secure connection between the upper and lower chambers.

A heat-dissipating thermostatic coffee pot comprising an upper pot, a coffee powder hopper, a lower pot and a water suction hopper, wherein a heat-dissipating thermostat is provided between the upper pot and the lower pot, the heat-dissipating thermostat comprising a main body, at least one deflector hole and at least one heat-dissipating groove; the main body is provided with an upper connecting end and a lower connecting end, which are connected to the upper pot and the lower pot, respectively; the deflector hole adopt a through hole passing through an upper end and a lower end of the main body; the heat-dissipating groove is arranged on a side of the main body and is placed on an outer periphery of the deflector hole; a conducting water flow path is formed between the lower pot, the water suction hopper, the deflector hole, the coffee powder hopper and the upper pot.

A coffee-making apparatus has a brew-water chamber for containing heated brew water, a coffee chamber, a water delivery system for delivering heated brew water from the brew-water chamber to the coffee chamber, and a cooling apparatus for cooling the heated brew water before it reaches the coffee chamber. The water delivery system comprises a conduit and a valve, openable when the pressure at a valve inlet reaches a valve opening pressure, for controlling a flow of brew water into the coffee chamber. The water delivery system is configured to control the flow rate of brew water while the coffee chamber is filling with brew water. A method of making coffee is also provided.

A coffee maker which has a funnel ending with a funnel mouth and a foaming device applied to the funnel mouth is provided. The foaming device has a valve made of deformable material provided with an outlet mouth towards which an exiting percolated beverage is channeled. In a rest condition, in which the valve does not cooperate with the funnel, the at outlet mouth has a rest passage section. In a mounting condition, in which the valve cooperates with the funnel, the outlet mouth is deformed and has a working passage section, reduced as compared to the rest passage section.
