Description

Tea Extraction Apparatus and Extraction Method

The present invention relates to a coffee extraction device and an extraction method, and relates to a coffee extraction device and an extraction method that can extract tea using a gas.

In general, coffee brewing methods include espresso such as lever type, piston type and spring type, as well as individual extraction devices such as Turkish leach method which depended on human hand, hand drip, machine drip, mocha pot, French press, siphon, etc. Following the coffee machine, a fully automatic coffee machine incorporating digital technology is developed and used today.

Among them, the immersion extraction method that pours hot water into coffee powder and waits for the coffee ingredients to dissolve in water and extracts it, and the drip extraction method that pours hot water to filter paper containing coffee to extract coffee liquid It is easy to brew coffee.

However, the drip extraction method is difficult to control the water as it is poured into the liquid water, and the loss of flavor is great due to the long exposure time to the atmosphere.

In addition, there are many extraction variables such as time, temperature, quantity of water, water dispersion, over-extraction, and bovine extraction, and the extraction deviation is large. That is, it takes a long time for the extraction skill, the variation in the taste of the coffee is large according to the skill and requires a long time labor.

In addition, the espresso machine can extract the coffee liquid by placing the coffee in the pot and then passing hot water under high pressure.

However, the espresso machine is not easy to clean due to the disadvantages of expensive machine and the characteristics of the machine, high maintenance cost and space utilization is not easy.

In addition, although the coffee can be dropped in a short time, the over-extraction tendency is high, the bitter taste of the coffee is strong, and the yield and extraction deviation are caused by the variation in the degree of grinding during the tamping dosing process.

Recently, a cold brew extraction method for extracting coffee by permeating a small amount of cold water in a container filled with a large amount of coffee powder for a long time has been widely used. Cold brew extraction is also called Dutch coffee and water drip extraction method, and coffee is extracted at low temperature with low solubility. Therefore, compared to the extraction method at high temperature, caffeine is less eluted compared to extraction time. have.

However, the Colt Brew extraction method has a problem in that the exposure time of the air is longer than that of the drip extraction method due to the characteristics of the apparatus, so that the flavor loss is large and the extraction time is long.

In addition, there is a problem such as complexity of the mechanism, difficulty of adjusting the nozzle to control the water, difficulty in discharging the coffee extract liquid due to clogging phenomenon during extraction.

Therefore, there is a need for an improved type of tea extraction device and method for maintaining the concentration and quality of coffee.

1 is an exploded perspective view showing a tea extracting apparatus according to the present invention, Figure 2 is a perspective view showing a coupling state of Figure 1, Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view of FIG.

As shown in Fig. 1 to Fig. 3, the tea extracting apparatus A according to the present invention comprises a gasification means 100 for gasifying water, and a gas generated from the gasification means 100 and raw materials contact each other. Is composed of an extraction member 200 and the storage member 300 for storing the difference passing through the extraction member 200.

In addition, the bucket 400 for supplying water to the gasification means 100 is further provided, the bucket 400 is disposed on the upper end of the extraction member (200).

At this time, the bucket 400 is formed to deliver water to the gasification means.

Moreover, the lid 410 is further provided to the top of the bucket 400.

In addition, the gasification means 100 is disposed in the bucket 400 or the extraction member 200 or selectively between the bucket 400 and the extraction member 200 in consideration of the ease of use and washing convenience, etc. To place.

Meanwhile, the gasification means 100 is an ultrasonic vibrator, and the ultrasonic vibrator vaporizes water by ultrasonic waves.

Here, the gasification means 100 is not limited to the ultrasonic vibrator, but it is found that the present invention can be replaced by various devices capable of converting water into gas.

In addition, the control unit 110 for adjusting the gasification means 100 made of an ultrasonic vibrator is further provided, the control unit 110 to adjust the intensity and operation time of the ultrasonic vibrator to make a coffee having a uniform taste do.

Then, the bucket 400 and the extraction member 200 and the extraction member 200 and the storage member 300 is formed in a removable structure is configured to be sealed inside when mutually fastening.

At this time, the detachable structure of the bucket 400 and the extraction member 200 and the extraction member 200 and the storage member 300 is coupled by mutual screw fastening or formed by fitting structure to each other using a separate fastening member can do.

Furthermore, a rubber seal 101 is added between the bucket 400 and the extraction member 200 and the extraction member 200 and the storage member 300 to prevent leakage of the coffee flavor.

On the other hand, the extraction member 200 is composed of a dripper 210, the raw material is accommodated, and the space 220 formed on one end of the dripper 210. In this case, the dripper 210 may be made of various materials such as paper and stainless steel.

In addition, the extraction member 200 may have a locking jaw formed to support the dripper 210 or may be formed in the same conical shape as the shape of the dripper 210.

In addition, the dripper 210 is positioned so that the lower end of the extraction member 200 and the coffee is delivered to the storage member 300.

In addition, the aroma valve 500 is installed at the lower end of the dripper 210 or the upper portion of the storage member 300 so that the flavor of the coffee introduced into the storage member 300 is returned to the extraction member 200 again. Will be prevented.

Here, the Aroma Valve 500 may be nicknamed "belly" because of the shape that is referred to as the One-Way Valve because the Fresh Valve or the air can move in only one direction.

Finally, one or more of the extraction member 200, the storage member 300 or the water tank 400 is installed LED can be visually confirmed in a dark place to extract the coffee.

According to the present invention, the flavor lost to the atmosphere is almost absent and the extraction member 200, the storage member 300 and the like are sealed. As a result, all flavors are recovered by the gasified water and come down.

Thus, the condensation of the flavor is very high and the water penetration into the coffee particles is much superior to that of the liquid to maximize the flavor and maintain a very constant taste regardless of the skill of the extractor.

The reason for the improvement of the flavor is that after pouring hot or cold water into the coffee particles, the flavor component is exposed to the atmosphere and is lost to the outside for a long time, resulting in a large loss of flavor.

For example, when you unload coffee in a room, the room is full of coffee flavor, which is lost to the atmosphere. As a preventive measure, the coffee extracting apparatus of the present invention can prevent the loss of flavor when the coffee is extracted from the sealed inner space when the coffee is unloaded.

However, simply confined spaces do not minimize the loss of flavor. The reason is that even if the coffee is in a liquid state, even if it is a closed space, it does not draw the flavor component floating in the closed space into something and cannot draw the flavor component into the coffee extract.

Thus, in the present invention, the floating flavor component is recovered again through the gasified water. In other words, the gas is bound to each other in an enclosed space and is converted into a heavy liquid state and pulled down by gravity.

As mentioned above, although preferred embodiment of this invention was described in detail, the technical scope of this invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, It should be interpreted by the claim. At this time, those of ordinary skill in the art should consider that many modifications and variations are possible without departing from the scope of the present invention.

In the above description, the coffee extraction has been described as an example, but for convenience of description, the present invention is not particularly limited thereto, and various teas may be extracted.
