Coffee brewer
A coffee brewer and a method of brewing coffee or another beverage with hot liquid, including tea, are provided. The coffee brewer includes a container with an inner volume, a closed end and an open end. A lid includes an inside with an inner area and an outside, for sealing attachment to the open end. An outlet and a valve, are configured to open or close a flow path between the container and the outlet. A coffee filter is secured to the inside of the lid, in the flow path between the container and the outlet. The outlet is configured to allow pouring of coffee while actuating the valve, and the valve can be actuated from a closed position to an open position with the closed end of the container facing up and the container being above the lid, without spilling coffee on an operator of the valve.

IMITATED POUR-OVER COFFEE MAKER CAPABLE OF HIGH-TEMPERATURE CONTROL
Provided is an imitated pour-over coffee maker capable of high-temperature control, including: a body having therein a water tank and a coffee-making tank; a human-machine interface module; a first coffee-making module; a second coffee-making module; a first control module; and a second control module for reading a signal of a third temperature sensor to control a second solenoid valve to perform coffee-making commencement or perform water-return commencement for returning water to the coffee-making tank. High-temperature control can be exercised over water dispensed by the delivery head, thereby optimizing the automation of imitated pour-over coffee making.
COFFEE MACHINE FOR WIRELESSLY DRIVING COFFEE CUP HOLDER TO ROTATE
A coffee machine for wirelessly driving a coffee cup holder to rotate comprises a machine body and a cup holder; the cup holder comprises a base, a cup holder and a driving motor, wherein the base is internally provided with a driving motor, and the output shaft of the driving motor is sleeved with the cup holder; the upper part of the machine body is provided with a support, the support is provided with a sprinkler head, the sprinkler head is provided above the cup holder, and the height difference between the sprinkler head and the cup holder is capable of accommodating a coffee cup in which a coffee filter cup is placed; the machine body is provided with a charging coil, the cup holder is provided with a power receiving coil, and the installation position of the power receiving coil corresponds to that of the charging coil.
Capsules, apparatus, and methods for preparing a beverage
A beverage preparation capsule containing a beverage preparation ingredient, having a body with side walls formed from one or more substantially air- and liquid-impermeable sheet materials defining a chamber containing a beverage preparation ingredient and further defining an outlet channel having an upstream end in fluid communication with the chamber for escape of beverage from the chamber. At least a region of the outlet channel is filled by a filtration material for filtering the beverage escaping from the chamber. Also provided is a clamp assembly for preparing a beverage from such a capsule, the clamp assembly comprising two or more clamp members, wherein an inner wall of at least one of the clamp members comprises a concave base surface for receiving the capsule and one or more pressure pads projecting from the concave base surface for selectively constricting a region of the capsule.
