Description
A COFFEE MACHINE AND A COFFEE PREPARATION
METHOD
[001] This invention is related to a coffee machine and a coffee preparation method.
[002] In order to prepare Turkish coffee in accordance with the accustomed flavor, the mixture, obtained from the addition of finely ground coffee, sugar and cold water in defined quantities as desired to a pot having wide a heating surface as possible like cezve (a small, long handled pot for making Turkish coffee), should be stirred thoroughly in advance, slowly heated and when froth starts to form, served in cups just before it reaches boiling point. In order to obtain the traditional flavor and appearance of Turkish coffee by using an automatic coffee making machine, the methods used should have similarities with the traditional coffee preparation methods. There are several Turkish coffee machines manufactured by utilizing traditional coffee making methods; however, they do not provide the flavor and the consistency that the consumers of Turkish coffee require.
[003] The pot, wherein the Turkish coffee is prepared, is heated from the bottom by mean s of a heater and when the desired froth level is reached and the boiling process is over, the heat transmitted from the heater to the coffee boiling pot is required to be turned off immediately. Even tough the energy transmitted to the heater is turned off im¬ mediately in order to stop heat transmission, the heat transmission to the boiling pot continues due to the thermal inertia of the heating apparatus, thus the coffee reaches boiling point by being over heated than the required level and the desired Turkish coffee flavor cannot be obtained.
[004] In the TR200300199 numbered Turkish patent application, a heating system of an automatic coffee machine which makes Turkish coffee in accordance with the accustomed taste and consistency is disclosed. Preparation of the Turkish coffee is conducted by a heater which escalates by means of a mechanism that moves up and down to contact the bottom surface of the boiling pot. At the end of the boiling process, the boiling process is ended by sensors which detect that the Turkish coffee is made at a desired consistency and the contact of the heater with the boiling pot is cut off by moving downwards by means of the lifting mechanism.
[005] The objective of the invention is to realize a coffee machine, wherein the preparation time is accurately determined in order to make a Turkish coffee at a desired consistency, and a coffee preparation method.
[006] The coffee machine and the coffee preparation method realized in order to attain the objects of this invention has been illustrated in the attached drawings, wherein;
[007] Figure 1 - is a perspective view of a coffee machine.

[014] The coffee machine (1) comprises a water tank (2), a water level sensor (3) which detects water level, one or more boiling pots (4) which can be attached and removed and wherein the boiling process is performed, one or more pumps (5) which convey the water in the water tank (2) to the boiling pot (4), one or more proximity sensors (6) which detect the placement of boiling pots (4), one or more heaters (7) of an induction and/or a resistance type which ensure the boiling pot (4) to be heated during the defined boiling period, which cut off the energy transmitted to the boiling pot (4) im¬ mediately at the end of the boiling period, one or more infrared sensors (8) which determine boiling by detecting the difference in the froth height caused by the items boiled in the boiling pot (4), one or more vapor thermostats (9) which end the boiling process for security purposes in case of necessity, one or more start-up buttons (10) which initiate coffee boiling process, one or more coffee cup size selection buttons (11) which are adjusted according to the size of the cups wherein Turkish coffee is to be served in order to determine the quantity of water to be pumped to the boiling pots (4) and one or more coffee cup quantity selection buttons (12) which are adjusted according to the quantity of the cups wherein Turkish coffee is to be served in order to determine the quantity of water to be pumped to the boiling pots (4).
[015] The infrared sensor (8) determines to initiate the boiling process by detecting the initial level of the coffee, water and sugar mixture added to the boiling pot (4) in defined quantities and determines to conclude the boiling process by detecting the difference in froth height and when the boiling process is concluded, the energy transmitted from the heater (7) to the boiling pot (4) is cut off immediately.
[016] The infrared sensor (8) is set to detect the initial level of the mixture, which is composed in order to make Turkish coffee in a boiling pot (4) in amounts according to the cup size and cup quantity wherein Turkish coffee is to be served, and the froth height limit that every mixture at an initial level will reach after the boiling process. Coffee and sugar is added to the boiling pot (4) before the boiling process is actuated and after the actuation of the boiling process, water is conveyed in amounts determined by the coffee cup size selection button (11) and coffee cup quantity selection button (12). The boiling process is actuated if the initial level of the coffee, sugar and water mixture is within the limits of the initial level before being heated where the infrared sensor (8) is set. The mixture composed starts to froth and its level begins to rise as it is heated. As the initial and the final level for each amount would be different when Turkish coffee is prepared in different amounts, the infrared sensor (8) detects the initial level and the froth height limit of the mixtures which are composed according to the minimum and maximum cup size and quantity and to the values in between.
[017] In the preferred embodiment of the invention, induction type heaters (7) are utilized in the coffee machine (1) which cut off the heat transmitted to the boiling pot (4) im¬ mediately after the required boiling process for preparing good quality Turkish coffee is over. As the thermal inertia of the induction type heaters (7) is low enough to be neglected, the heating process of the boiling pot (4) ends when the energy transmitted to the induction type heater (7) is cut off at the end of the boiling process. Thus, the overflow of the coffee and the disappearance of the froth, which is an essential quality of a Turkish coffee, is prevented. When heating the same amount of mixture, induction type heaters (7) due to their high efficiency consume less amount of energy than the resistance type heaters (7).
[018] In another embodiment of the invention, resistance type heaters (7) are used and these heaters (7) conduct heating processes by contacting the boiling pot (4) during the beginning of the boiling process by moving upwards by means of a lifting mechanism and when the boiling process is over, at the moment when the infrared sensor (8) detects froth rise and sends a signal, their contact with the boiling pot (4) is cut off by moving downwards.
[019] Coffee cup quantity selection button (12) can also be used as a start up button (10) to actuate the boiling process.
[020] Coffee cup size selection button (11) adjusts the operation time of the pumps by means of a potentiometer in order to obtain the appropriate water quantity required by different sized cups. The coffee machine (1) comprises a measuring cup (13) having plurality of stages which are adjusted according to the volume of different sized cups, which enables the user to adjust the coffee cup size selection button (11) according to the size of the coffee cups to be used. [021] After being adjusted once, the coffee cup size selection button (11) will be used rarely as the household coffee cups are not changed frequently and it is adjusted by means of an auxiliary apparatus as it cannot be turned on its own accord or ac¬ cidentally. Measuring cup (13) comprises a projection (14) preferably located on its base which enables adjusting the coffee cup size selection button (11). Coins or forks, spoons or knives used in the kitchen could be used as an auxiliary apparatus to adjust the coffee cup selection button (11).
[022] Turkish coffee is prepared in the coffee machine by using a method composed of the following steps:
- Items such as coffee and sugar are added to the boiling pot (4) in defined amounts according to the size and/or quantities of the coffee cups wherein Turkish coffee is to be served.
- The boiling pot (4) is placed inside the coffee machine (1).
