Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and device for brewing a beverage.
- the invention relates to infused beverages such as tea that are brewed in a device having an infusion chamber.
- Beverages such as tea and coffee are usually prepared in the home using ground coffee, tea bags or loose-leaf tea.
- the long brewing time and mess after brewing are inconvenient.
- brewing devices for automatically brewing tea are known.
- One type of brewing device described for example in US 5 619 904 and WO 2008 / 058576 consists of a brewing container which fits on top of a tea pot.
- Leaf tea or other beverage material is placed in the brewing container, and hot water is then introduced. Once brewing has been completed, the liquid is transferred from the brewing container into the tea pot. The brewing container is then removed, and the beverage is poured out of the tea pot into a cup.
- WO 2008 / 156283 discloses an extractor for extracting loose green tea leaves with pressurized hot water. After extraction, the beverage passes out of the extractor and out through a pipe.
- Capsule-based devices for brewing tea have been designed which have a transparent infusion chamber, see for example, WO 2007 / 042485.
- the tea leaves immersed in the liquid are visible to the user whilst infusion takes place.
- the tea beverage is dispensed vertically downwards from a spout beneath the infusion chamber.
- having a transparent infusion chamber helps to emphasize the quality and "tea-ness" of the beverage, as distinct from coffee making machines, it would nonetheless be desirable to improve the perception of the quality of beverages from devices for making tea.
- the present invention provides a method of preparing a tea beverage in a capsule-based brewing device, the device comprising
- a capsule holder sized and shaped so as to receive a capsule
- the present invention provides a capsule-based brewing device, the device comprising
- ⁇ a valve for opening the passage to allow the beverage to flow from the infusion chamber through the filter, along the passage, through the orifice, into the vessel and out from the spout.
- the beverage pours in an arc, rather than simply being dispensed vertically downwards from the orifice into the cup. This is reminiscent of tea poured from the spout of a tea pot, and emphasizes the quality and "tea-ness" of the beverage.
- beverage refers to a substantially aqueous drinkable composition suitable for human consumption.
- the beverage comprises at least 85% water by weight of the beverage, more preferably at least 90% and most preferably from 95 to 99.9%.
- infusible beverage material refers to tea plant material, herb plant material, fruit pieces and / or flower material (e.g. petals), which when steeped or soaked in an aqueous liquid release certain soluble substances into the liquid, e.g. flavour and/or aroma molecules.
- 'tea' refers to leaf and / or stem material from Camellia sinensis var. sinensis or Camellia sinensis var. assamica.
- the tea material may be substantially fermented i.e. black tea, semi-fermented i.e. oolong tea, or substantially unfermented i.e. green tea.
- the term "herb plant material” refers to material which is commonly used as a precursor for herbal infusions.
- the herb plant material is selected from chamomile, cinnamon, elderflower, ginger, hibiscus, jasmine, lavender, lemongrass, mint, rosehip, vanilla and verbena.
- the tea material may additionally comprise fruit pieces (e.g.
- the term "infusible beverage material” does not include coffee material.
- the infusible beverage material is dried and has a moisture content of less than 30 wt %, preferably less than 20 wt % and most preferably from 0.1 to 10 wt %.
- the infusible beverage material is in the form of particles which have a size (i.e. longest diameter) of from about 2 to about 10mm, preferably 3 to 7mm.
- the beverage preferably comprises at least 0.01 % by weight tea solids. More preferably the beverage comprises from 0.04 to 3%, even more preferably from 0.06 to 2%, most preferably from 0.1 to 1 % by weight tea solids.
- the term 'brewing' refers to the addition of a liquid, particularly hot water, to an infusible beverage material thereby to form a beverage. Brewing may be carried out at any temperature, but preferably in the range of 80 to 95°C.
- infusion chamber means a vessel which in which infusion of infusible beverage material takes place, and which is large enough both to allow the beverage material to move around in the liquid during infusion, and also to contain a substantial part, at least 50% of the volume of the final beverage.
- infusion chamber therefore does not refer to capsules inside which brewing takes place (as is typically the case in coffee machines).
- spout means an element which channels and directs the flow of a liquid, so that the flow of the liquid on leaving the spout has a horizontal component, i.e. it does not flow in a purely vertical downwards direction.
- the spout is a projecting tube or gutter.
- capsule includes cartridges, pods, and packages etc., e.g. a rigid or semi-rigid container in which infusible beverage material is or may be packaged.
- the capsule comprises a body part and a lid part, the lid part being attached to the body part so as to enclose the infusible beverage material within the capsule.
- the lid may be made of a thin film, such as foil.
- Figure 1 shows a brewing device according to the invention.
- Figure 2 is a schematic diagram showing the functional main components of the device.
- Figure 3 shows a capsule holder in cross-section
- Figure 1 shows a brewing device according to the invention.
- the device 1 has a casing 2 with a front side 3 and a rear side 4.
- An infusion chamber 10 is supported and held in place by a manifold (not shown).
- a water reservoir, heater, and pump (not shown) are located inside the rear 4 of the casing.
- the infusible beverage material is provided in a capsule (not shown).
- the device has a capsule holder 20 sized and shaped so as to receive the capsule.
- the capsule holder 20 is shown in position for brewing, wherein the top of the capsule holder is in water-tight contact with the bottom of the infusion chamber 10.
- a filter 25 is located in the capsule holder.
- the capsule has a filter in the bottom of the body part.
- the filter preferably consists of a fine mesh made for example of stainless steel.
- the mesh size must be sufficiently small to catch small pieces of beverage material but large enough to ensure that draining is not too slow.
- the mesh size is from 100 to 500 microns, more preferably 150 to 300 microns.
- the term "vessel” refers to any object which provides a surface for the beverage to be dispensed onto.
- the vessel 60 consists of a flat base 61 having a sidewall 62 around its edge, apart from at the front where there is a spout 63.
- the vessel could be a cup, a tray, a pipe or any other suitable object.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the main functional components of the device.
- Water from the reservoir 50 is fed to the infusion chamber 10 via a water filter 52, a water pump 54, a heater 56 and a valve 57.
- the capsule holder 20 holds a capsule 30. Beneath the capsule holder 20 there is the vessel 60, and a cup 9 which rests on a tray 8.
- the valve 57 controls the route the water takes between the heater 56 and the infusion chamber 10. Firstly the water is pumped to the infusion chamber 10 via the capsule, in order to brew a beverage 70.
- valve 57 can re-direct the water such that it enters the brewing chamber 10 via a rinse head 18 in order to rinse and/or clean the brewing chamber 10.
- air pump 58 which can pump air to the infusion chamber, preferably via the capsule holder.
- Figure 3 shows the capsule holder 20 in cross-section, containing a capsule 30.
- the passage 29 In the lower part of the capsule holder, there is an openable and closable passage 29 through which the beverage flows during dispensing and which is closed by a drain valve 21 during brewing and which terminates in an orifice 40.
- the passage terminates in a plurality of orifices, more preferably from 3 to 7, most preferably 4, 5 or 6 orifices.
- having a number of orifices of small diameter results in less dripping at the end of dispensing than a single orifice of a larger diameter.
- the device functions as follows. The user places a capsule containing infusible beverage material in the capsule holder.
- the capsule holder is then placed in communication with the infusion chamber to form a water-tight contact, so that the capsule holder and infusion chamber together form a vessel in which the brewing liquid can be held while brewing takes place.
- the capsule may have a lid, which needs to be opened or removed in order to release the beverage material. In one embodiment, the lid is removed by the user before the capsule is inserted into the device. Alternatively, the lid is opened automatically by the device after the capsule is inserted into the capsule holder.
- the device may have means for recognizing a capsule and / or reading information from a code on the capsule. This allows the capsule to be recognized by the device, so that the device can automatically set the parameters for the brewing operation, such as the brewing time, water temperature etc..
- the recognition system can be of any suitable type, such as mechanical interlocking between the capsule and the capsule holder; optical recognition (e.g. by means of colour, fluorescence or bar code), electrical, magnetic, radio-frequency identification (RFID) chip etc..
- the device may also have means for allowing the user to adjust the parameters of the brewing operation, such as the brewing time, the cup size etc.
- the means may suitably consist of buttons or other inputs on the device, together with a control system.
- Water is pumped from the reservoir to the heater, which is preferably a flow- though heater.
- the resulting hot water (and optionally steam) is then pumped to the capsule, for example through a needle.
- the influx of hot water pushes the infusible beverage material out from the opened capsule into the infusion chamber.
- the heater and pump are controlled so that the target brew temperature (which is typically in the range 80°C to 95°C) is achieved in the infusion chamber.
- the water flow rate is in the range of 200 to 400ml/min, and the volume of water is 150 to 300ml, depending on the desired size of the beverage.
- Air may be pumped into the capsule holder or directly into the infusion chamber to create bubbles in the beverage and thereby agitate the beverage material.
- the introduction of air releases aroma which can optionally be vented via a conduit to a vent located in the vicinity of the spout, thereby providing the user with the aroma of tea during brewing.
- the aroma passes from the infusion chamber through a conduit to an aroma vent located in the vicinity of, and preferably adjacent to the spout 63.
- the brewing time which typically ranges from 10 to 120 seconds, is preferably set by user input and / or information read from the capsule.
- the drain valve 21 is opened, allowing the beverage to drain from the infusion chamber.
- the opening of the drain valve is controlled automatically by the machine.
- the beverage flows from the infusion chamber through the filter 25. Infusible beverage material is prevented from entering the passage by the filter.
- the beverage then flows through the passage 29, out through the orifice(s) 40, into the vessel 60 and finally pours through the spout 63 into a cup 9 which the user has already placed onto the tray 8.
- the beverage follows an arc, similar to that of tea poured from the spout of a tea pot. This emphasizes the "tea-ness" of the beverage, as distinct from coffee making machines.
