Abstract
A coffee making system includes a multi-use filter body. The filter body includes a base, a top portion, and a sidewall connecting the base and the top portion, the sidewall at least partially including filter material. The filter material is adapted to allow the passage of liquid and prevent the passage of coffee grounds. The filter body is selectively useable in an inverted position as a filter in a press coffee making mode of operation and selectively useable in an upright position in a pour-over coffee making mode of operation. In another version, the filter body and a transverse filter body combine to form a dual filter arrangement that can be used in a press coffee maker and/or to make an infused beverage.

A coffee making system comprising:
- a filter body, the filter body comprising a base, a top portion, and a sidewall connecting the base and the top portion, the sidewall at least partially including filter material, the filter material being adapted to allow the passage of liquid and prevent the passage of coffee grounds,
- wherein the filter body is selectively useable in an inverted position as a filter in a press coffee making mode of operation and selectively useable in an upright position in a pour-over coffee making mode of operation.
A coffee making system comprising:
- a dual filter arrangement comprising a filter body, the filter body comprising a base, a top portion, a sidewall connecting the base and the top portion, and a transverse filter body connectable to the top portion of the filter body, wherein the sidewall and the transverse filter body each include filter material, the filter material being adapted to allow the passage of liquid and prevent the passage of coffee grounds;
- a container having an inner wall defining an interior reservoir and an open top, the top portion of the filter body or the transverse filter body being sized and shaped to contact the inner wall and to be slidable within the interior reservoir along the inner wall of the container;
- and
- a rod connectable to the base, the rod adapted to extend through the open top of the container and manipulatable by a user to slide the filter body along the inner wall of the container,
- wherein the dual filter arrangement is useable in an inverted position as a filter in a press coffee making mode of operation.
A method of making multiple styles of coffee, the method comprising:
- providing a filter body, the filter body comprising a base, a top portion, and a sidewall connecting the base and the top portion, wherein the sidewall includes filter material, the filter material being adapted to allow the passage of liquid and prevent the passage of coffee grounds;
- in a first mode of operation, using the filter body it in a press coffee making mode of operation;
- and
- in a second mode of operation, using the filter body in a pour-over coffee making mode of operation.
