Abstract
An infused beverage making apparatus has an affixed or remotely disposed control interface and a processor. The processor receives inputs from the user control interface and measurements from a plurality of sensors and controls various infused beverage qualities according thereto.
Claims19
An apparatus for making infused beverages comprising:
- a water heating container with an electric heater and a water level sensor;
- a water reservoir in fluid communication with the water heating container;
- a beverage receiving container;
- an infusible materials container;
- an air delivery system including a pump and valving;
- a conduit for providing water from the water heating container through the infusible materials container;
- a thermal sensor in communication with the water container;
- a weight sensor in communication with the infusible materials container;
- a pressure sensor in communication with ambient pressure and the conduit;
- a user control interface;
- and
- a processor in communication with the user control interface, the heater, the pump, the valving, the thermal sensor, the weight sensor, the water level sensor, and the pressure sensor;
- wherein the processor is adapted to receive input parameters from the user control interface and measurements from the thermal sensor, the weight sensor, the pressure sensor, and the water level sensor, and to control the heater, the valving and the pump according thereto.
