Extraction device, display method for extraction device, and system

An extraction device, comprising:

• an extraction vessel for extracting an extract from an ingredient;
• supply means for supplying a liquid to the extraction vessel, a plurality of extraction steps being able to be performed in succession when the extract is extracted;
• control means for controlling the supply of the liquid by the supply means;
• storage means for storing a liquid amount in the extraction vessel in each of the plurality of extraction steps as liquid amount information;
• and
• display means for displaying a variation of the liquid amount in the extraction vessel in the form of a liquid amount variation graph when the extract is extracted under the control of the control means,
• the display means displays the liquid amount variation graph based on the liquid amount information read from the storage means,
• the display means displays, in response to a user operation, the liquid amount variation graph by reflecting the operation in the manner of the variation of the liquid amount indicated by a part of the liquid amount variation graph,
• the storage means newly stores liquid amount information corresponding to the liquid amount variation graph in which the operation is reflected, and
• the control means reads the liquid amount information newly stored in the storage means, and performs a control so that the liquid amount in the extraction vessel in each of the plurality of extraction steps is a liquid amount corresponding to the read liquid amount information.
