Apparatus for making a drink

A machine for making an individual drink, comprising:

• a pressure source;
• a store defining a plurality of housings;
• a plurality of removable containers each immobilized, in a service position, in a respective housing, each container including
• a receptacle containing an ingredient and having a wall more than 1 mm thick and an interior volume of more than 0.1 liter, and
• an upstream emptying valve allowing said ingredient to be caused to exit to the outside of the receptacle by an increased pressure generated inside said receptacle by said pressure source;
• a chamber to receive the ingredients extracted from said containers, via the said upstream emptying one-way valves, because of said increased pressure, so as to make said drink;
• a control module able to command said increased pressures in said containers as a function of a desired composition for said drink, the control module including a processor and a memory containing code instructions for causing the processor to function,
• in which machine each housing includes an emptying coupler via which the ingredient of the container immobilized in said housing being extracted from said container, said emptying coupler opening, in a downstream direction, directly into a funnel defined by said chamber the ingredient exiting the container does not transit via any pipe before dropping into said chamber, said chamber being disposed immediately under the emptying coupler.
