Infusion package mover
An infusion package mover comprises a housing comprising a hood (30) and a bottom (32) and a driving mechanism for moving a C-shaped rocker (34) back and forth. A flat spring (40) is attached to rocker (34) to form a slot for receiving and holding a string (44) attached to an infusion package (tea bag) (46) so that package (46) is suspended in an extracting liquid (52) in a cup (50). A push on a button (72) starts an electric circuit that causes the driving mechanism to move rocker (34) in the directions shown by the arrows so as to move package (46) back and forth in liquid (52), thus improving infusion. The movement continues until the electric circuit turns off the power. Other embodiments provide enhancements. After starting, the mover can be left unattended.
STACKABLE INFUSION FILTRATION AND STORAGE SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF USING THE SAME
Stackable infusion filtration and storage systems are described herein. Components of the systems may include a first container, a second container, and a cooperating third container. The stackable systems may further include a sleeve component and one or more lids. The stackable systems can concurrently capture liquid as the liquid separates from an infused butter mixture and solidify butter in separate cooperating stackable containers. Methods of use are also described.
CARTRIDGE, ASSEMBLY AND CUP FOR PREPARING LOOSE LEAF TEA AND METHOD OF PREPARING TEA
A cartridge (1) for controlled brewing of loose-leaf tea in a cup, comprising an infusion chamber (2) for containing loose tea leaves (3) and infusing a liquid with substances from the tea leaves to brew tea. A chamber wall (20) impervious to the liquid defines the infusion chamber. In the chamber wall is a passage (21) between the infusion chamber and an exterior (5) thereof. The passage has an open state in which the infusion chamber is in liquid communication with the exterior, to transport the substances from the infusion chamber into liquid in the exterior during brewing tea. In a close state the infusion chamber inside is closed off from liquid in the exterior to stop a concentration of the substances in the liquid in the exterior from increasing. A manual control manually controllable by a human-being allows to bring the passage from the open state into the closed state.

DRINKING CONTAINER WITH DIFFERENT TEMPERATURE ZONES
A drinking container system with multiple temperature zones, wherein the container system includes a main body having a sidewall and a bottom that define a phase change material (PCM) module receptacle, and a phase change material (PCM) module having a sidewall that defines a beverage chamber. The PCM module is disposable within the PCM module receptacle such that a beverage egress flow path is defined between the main body sidewall and the PCM module sidewall. The flow path formed in the container can make the beverage achieve the desired drinking temperature. The PCM module sidewall is at least partially filled with a phase change material and is structured and operable to provide a plurality temperature zones within the beverage chamber. Each temperature zone is operable to maintain a temperature of a respective portion of a liquid disposed within the beverage chamber within a respective temperature range.
