Abstract

In order to put a good value, easy to use, home brew device for laymen on the market, the appliance-carrying base/lid system was developed. The invention is characterized in that a brewing lid (2) is connected via joiner elements (4) to the base (1), and an ordinary pot (5) is placed in between. During filtering and/or fermenting, the brewing lid is replaced by the filtering and the fermenting lid (3). The lids have the necessary appliance elements for the respective partial brewing process, so that the pot, lcoated between the lids and the base, serves exclusively as a receptacle. Upon use of longer joiner elements, filter basket and filter axis, as well as of a larger, flexible filter, different pot volumes can be used with the same pot diameter. The home-brew device is suitable, due to its simple structure and simple built-in appliance elements, for qualified beer brewing by the layman.

Description

HeimbraugerätHome brewing device
Heute werden am Markt nur vereinzelt Bierbraueinrichtungen zum Heim brauen für den Laien angeboten. Dabei handelt es sich um Einrichtungen mit verschiedenen Behältern. In den Schriften DE 4440600 Cl, DE 19524783 Cl und DE 19503244 AI werden Geräte beschrieben, die mit einem Behälter auskommen.Today only a few beer brewing facilities for home brewing are offered to the layman on the market. These are devices with different containers. In the documents DE 4440600 Cl, DE 19524783 Cl and DE 19503244 AI devices are described that get by with a container.
Der Patentanmeldung lag die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein gerätetragendes Boden- /Deckelsystem zu entwickeln, das es zuläßt, einen vorhandenen preiswerten Topf als Behälter des Gerätes zu verwenden. Hierdurch reduzieren sich die Herstellkosten erheblich.The patent application was based on the task of developing a device-supporting base / lid system which allows an existing inexpensive pot to be used as a container for the device. This significantly reduces the manufacturing costs.
Die Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, daß ein Braudeckel (2) über Verbindungselemente (7) mit einem Boden (1) verbunden ist und dazwischen ein normaler Topf (6) plaziert wird. Beim Filtern bzw. Gären wird der Braudeckel durch den Filter- und Gärdeckel (3) ersetzt. Die Deckel tragen die für den jeweiligen Teilbrauprozess notwendigen Geräteelemente, so daß der zwischen Deckeln und Boden befindliche Topf ausschließlich als Behälter dient. Bei Verwendung von längeren Verbindungselementen, Filterkorb (18) und -achse (20), sowie größerem flexiblen Filter (19) können bei gleichem Topfdurchmesser verschiedene Topfvolumen verwendet werden. The object is achieved in that a brewing lid (2) is connected to a base (1) via connecting elements (7) and a normal pot (6) is placed in between. When filtering or fermenting, the brewing lid is replaced by the filter and fermenting lid (3). The lids carry the device elements necessary for the respective partial brewing process, so that the pot located between the lids and the bottom only serves as a container. When using longer connecting elements, filter basket (18) and axis (20), as well as larger flexible filter (19), different pot volumes can be used with the same pot diameter.
