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.

An inverting and cleaning device includes a positioning mechanism, an inverting mechanism, and a cleaning mechanism. The positioning mechanism is adapted to move a drum to a first position. The inverting mechanism includes a holding member. When the drum is located at the first position, the holding member clamps a drum body of the drum and inverts the drum to a second position where an opening on a top of the drum faces downward. The cleaning mechanism includes a cleaning tool. When the drum is located at the second position, the cleaning tool enters the drum through the opening of the drum for cleaning an inside of the drum.

One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for agricultural container cleaning that includes a cleaning system having a support member having a platform configured to support an agricultural container thereon, wherein the platform is configured to rotate with the agricultural container supported thereon. The cleaning system further includes at least one reservoir configured to store a fluid, a vertical spray portion arranged along a first axis and fluidly coupled to the at least one reservoir, and a horizontal spray portion arranged along a second axis fluidly coupled to the at least one reservoir, wherein the first axis is different than the second axis. The cleaning system also includes a plurality of spray bars coupled to the vertical spray portion and the horizontal spray portion, wherein each spray bar of the plurality of spray bars includes a plurality of nozzles configured to spray the fluid therefrom.

A system for reconditioning barrels comprising: a robot arm; a router assembly for routing the inside surface of a barrel; and a laser assembly for measuring the inside profile of a barrel, wherein: the router assembly is fixedly attached to the robot arm; and the laser assembly is removably attached to the router assembly thus allowing the laser assembly to be removed while the barrel is being routed in order to protect the laser from airborne particles and vibrations from the router.
