  The present invention relates to a coffee nel bag that is used for coffee extraction of the noodle drip type, and the coffee mash used in the previous extraction is removed and shampooed (without using detergent) so that it can be used immediately for the next extraction. The present invention relates to a bag dehydrator.

  In general, a flannel bag used for noodle drip type coffee extraction is obtained by sewing a flannel (wool woven fabric) into a bag shape, and recently a cotton woven fabric is also used as a flannel bag. It is said that the taste of coffee that drip coffee powder in this flannel bag is very good, but it was difficult to care for flannel bags. In other words, it is necessary to remove the coffee cake remaining at the time of previous extraction that affects the taste, and to completely remove the “paste” by washing without using a detergent, and it is not possible to use it unless it is made half-boiled.

Especially in stores with many customers, it is necessary to use the Nell bag several times a day. In such a case, the Nel bag after scouring is well squeezed and used in a half-thirsty state. It was indispensable to squeeze well enough to prevent water droplets from being generated by adult males, which was a heavy burden for female shop assistants and weak male shop staff. This squeezing operation can be easily performed to squeeze the flannel bag after scouring to a half-thirsty state by using the rotary dehydrator of Japanese Patent No. 2515663 previously proposed by the present inventor.
