Abstract
A cold brewing coffee device that produces coffee without any suspended solids in the product. The devices uses a false bottom in the initial tank to hold the coffee beans and water is pumped between the initial tank and a second tank. Using an inverted P trap in the piping allow for reduced suspended solids in the final product. The end product is a high quality cold brewed beverage that is defined by the beverages clarity and lack of visible suspended solids, wherein the resulting product has a distinct look compared to other brewed beverages (i.e. producing a product that is cleaner than competing products without the need for a filter).
Claims3
A method of brewing beverages comprising the steps of:
- staging a device;
- placing a false bottom in the extract tank;
- placing an outlet on the extract tank below the false bottom;
- placing a mister on the lid of the extract tank;
- actuating a pre-infusion sequence further comprising the steps of:
- filling the extract tank with water until the water level is even with the false bottom;
- placing coffee grounds on the false bottom;
- attaching a mister to a water supply;
- placing the lid on the extract tank;
- and
- filling the tank until the water level is above the bed of coffee;
- priming, further comprising the steps of:
- removing liquid from the extract tank through the outlet;
- and
- adding liquid through the top of the extract tank;
- stilling, further comprising the steps of:
- flowing liquid from the extract tank, through inverted p trap piping, into a brew tank, through a low flow pump back into an extract tank;
- and,
- actuating a drawdown sequence comprising lowering the inverse p trap and turning off the pump.
