Apparatus and method for preparing a brewed beverage
An apparatus for preparing a brewed beverage includes a device for heating and conveying water. A brewing chamber is coupled to the device to introduce heated water into the brewing chamber. The brewing chamber has a lateral opening and a bottom side having an outlet. A positioning device positions at the lateral opening of the brewing chamber a capsule containing an ingredient for brewing the beverage. A drive device is arranged to move the brewing chamber relative to the capsule. A method of using the apparatus includes the step of ejecting the capsule from the lateral opening of the brewing chamber after each brewing process and carrying out an automatic rinsing of the brewing chamber.

A method and apparatus for preparing a brewed beverage includes positioning a capsule with a brewing ingredient at a lateral opening of a brewing chamber. Heated water is conveyed to into the brewing chamber to brew the beverage by filling the capsule with the heated water. An outlet valve on of the brewing chamber is opened for filling a vessel with the brewed beverage through a feed nozzle. The brewing chamber is moved together with the feed nozzle from a brewing and filling position, where the capsule is positioned at the brewing chamber and the feed nozzle is above a passage for filling the vessel, to a rinsing position where the capsule is removed from the brewing chamber and the nozzle is above a guide element for directing water for disposal. In the rinsing position, the brewing chamber is rinsed with rinse water which is disposed via the nozzle and the guide element.

CAPSULE FOR CLEANING A BEVERAGE PREPARATION MACHINE AND METHOD FOR CLEANING A BREWING CHAMBER
A capsule (50) for cleaning a beverage preparation machine comprises a container (51) which is sealed at one end by a removable cover (52) and contains at least one cleaning agent (56), wherein a screen (54) or grating by means of which the cleaning agent (56) is held within the container (51) is provided on the container (51) underneath the cover (52). The invention also relates to a method for cleaning a brewing chamber (6) of a beverage preparation machine.
The invention relates to a portion pack (1) for preparing beverages, in particular tea or coffee, comprising a container (2), in which a substance suitable for beverage preparation is arranged, wherein the container (2) is liquid-permeable at least in some regions or can be perforated during the beverage preparation, and an adapter (3), which can be inserted into a machine for beverage preparation, wherein the container (2) is releasably fastened to the adapter (3). Thus, the adapter (3) can be reused to prepare a plurality of beverages. Because the adapter (3) absorbs the mechanical loads in the device and provides the interfaces to the device, the container (2) can be produced in a cost-optimized manner. Furthermore, additional functionalities such as coding or biodegradability can be realized in a simple manner.
A method for preparing a brewed beverage comprises the following steps: a capsule (15) with contents for brewing the beverage is positioned at a lateral opening (20) of a brewing chamber (6), water is heated and delivered to the brewing chamber (6), the heated water is let into the brewing chamber (6), the beverage is prepared in the brewing chamber (6), the capsule (15) being filled with heated water in the process, a valve at an outlet (22) is opened and a vessel (4) is filled with the brewed beverage, the capsule (15) is removed from the lateral opening (20) of the brewing chamber (6), and the brewing chamber is rinsed. The invention also relates to an apparatus which is intended for preparing a brewed beverage and readily allows the brewing chamber to be rinsed.
