Disposable beverage brewing system

A disposable filter press device for making a brewed beverage from a combination of liquid and material to be brewed, comprising:

• a first disposable cup having a closed bottom, an open top and a sidewall extending around an entire circumferential extent of the first cup;
• a second disposable cup having a bottom end, an open top and a sidewall extending around the entire circumferential extent of the second cup, at least a portion of the sidewall of said second cup being sized and configured substantially the same as the sidewall of said first cup so that said second cup is positionable in said first cup, said second cup including a filter for separating the brewed beverage from the material that is used to brew the brewed beverage by moving the second cup relative to the first cup, an upper portion of the sidewall of the second cup being angled outwardly relative to an adjoining portion of the sidewall of the second cup to define a seal area that cooperates with an upper end of the first cup when the second cup is positioned within the first cup to provide a seal between the first and second cups, the second cup also including a rim situated above and enlarged relative to the outwardly angled upper portion of the sidewall.
