An apparatus for agitating liquid foodstuff, comprising a whisk that includes a magnetic rotor of a brushless electromotor assembly, and a main body including a liquid foodstuff container in which the whisk is receivable such that it is rotatable around a rotation axis thereof, and a stator of the electromotor assembly. The stator is configured to electromagnetically drive the rotor in rotation, and includes at least one magnetic sensor configured to provide a signal that reflects positional changes of the magnetic rotor relative to the magnetic sensor. The main body also includes a controller configured to detect an initial, manually effected rotational movement of the whisk around its rotation axis from the signal of the magnetic sensor, and, once such initial movement of the whisk is detected, to operate the apparatus independent of said initial, movement.

The invention relates to a device (1) and a method for processing, preferably stirring and/or mixing, a substance (2) in a container (3) by at least one magnetic tool (4) being movably insertable or being movably inserted in the container (3), the device (1) comprising a worktop (5) for contacting a section of the container (3), preferably at least partially a bottom wall (3B) of the container (3), at a first side (S51) of the worktop (5); at least one actuating unit (6) for generating a magnetic field (MF) for driving the at least one magnetic tool (4), the at least one actuating unit (6) being arranged at a second side (S52) of the worktop (5) opposite to the first side (S51); and a drive unit (7) for rotational and translational driving the at least one actuating unit (6). The invention relates further to a cooking apparatus and an arrangement.

A machine (1) for processing a liquid food substance includes: a jug (20) having a container (21) and delimiting a food for containing the liquid food substance; and a base (10) that has one or more walls (11) forming a seat (11) for removably receiving the container (21). The base (10) and/or the container (21) has one or more thermally insulating spacers (11a) spacing the base wall(s) (11) from thermally conditioned outside container wall(s) (21a) when the container (21) is received in or on the seat (11) so as to prevent or inhibit thermal transfer from the container (21) into the base (10) via the base wall(s) (11) from the container wall(s) (21a) adjacent the base wall(s) (11).

Disclosed is a food processing apparatus having a food processing chamber, comprising a blade arrangement and a motor arranged to drive the blade arrangement. The blade arrangement comprises a body having a surface arrangement delimiting a cavity and a plurality of cutting blades extending from the surface arrangement into the cavity.

A cooking device is provided, including a main body, a stirrer assembly, a heating assembly, a fixing assembly and a thermal insulation layer. The main body includes a bottom wall and a circumferential wall which define a receiving space therebetween. The heating assembly is disposed around and contacts an outer surface of the circumferential wall. The fixing assembly includes at least one restriction member and at least one latch unit, and the at least one restriction member is disposed around the circumferential wall and covers the heating assembly. The thermal insulation layer is disposed between the circumferential wall and the at least one restriction member, and the thermal insulation layer covers at least of the outer surface of the circumferential wall.

A cooking device is provided, including: a pot body, including a circumferential wall and a bottom wall which define a receiving space; a heating assembly, disposed around the circumferential wall; a stirring member, located in the receiving space and rotatably mounted to the bottom wall; a safety control assembly, including a first temperature sensor disposed on the bottom wall, a second temperature sensor disposed on the circumferential wall and a third temperature sensor disposed on the heating assembly; wherein temperatures detected respectively by the first, second and third temperature sensors are defined as first, second and third temperatures, respectively, and when the cooking device is on and a temperature difference between the first and second temperatures is larger than a reference temperature difference, the safety control assembly sends out a warming and control the heating assembly to stop operating.

A coffee brewing system includes a brew vessel adapted to receive water and ground coffee to produce and store a brewed beverage. The brew vessel includes a filter and a magnet stirrer in the lower portion of the brew vessel. The magnet stirrer creates a water vortex for brewing the coffee. The used coffee grounds are allowed to settle on the filter creating a bed of used coffee grounds and the coffee is then filtered through both the bed of used coffee grounds and the filter and collected in a coffee storage container.

A portable beverage dispensing container comprises a housing and an internal beverage holding tank positioned in and contained within the housing. The internal beverage holding tank is configured to receive and store a beverage, with a dispensing nozzle on an external surface of the housing in fluid communication with the internal beverage holding tank. The housing includes one or more openings defined through a surface thereof, such that heated air can be introduced into the housing and into a space defined between the internal beverage holding tank and the housing. A satellite brewing system includes such a portable beverage dispensing container, along with a brewing station with a heater and a fan for generating heated air. When the portable beverage dispensing container is positioned at the brewing station, the heated air is directed into the space defined between the internal beverage holding tank and the housing of the shuttle.

An apparatus for preparing a foam from a liquid, particularly a food liquid, such as milk or a milk-based liquid. The apparatus (10) includes a base body (16) provided with electrical connection means (52, 54) and an upper unit (12, 14) arranged to be releasably placed on the base body (16) to be electrically connected to the base body (16) through the electrical connection means (52, 54). The upper unit (12, 14) has an upper body (12) acting as a vessel and an intermediate body (14) separate from each other. The upper body (12) houses a stirring member (24). The intermediate body (14) houses electrically operated driver (42, 44, 46) for driving the stirring member (24) to rotate and a heating element (40) for heating the liquid contained in the upper body (12).

A device for producing fluid foam includes a container where the fluid can be accommodated, and includes a foaming tool rotatable in the inner volume of the container. The texture and the porosity of the fluid foam obtained are provided by shear energy coming from Couette Flow effect and depend on the dimension of the foaming tool with respect to the inner volume of the container, on the location of the foaming tool from the bottom of the container and on the rotation speed of the foaming tool.
