<p>A beverage making appliance comprises at least one tube (1) for transporting a liquid, particularly a tube (1) which is provided with a slit (3) extending along a length of the tube (1) between one end (11) of the tube (1) and another end (12) of the tube (1). At the position of the slit (3), the tube (1) is openable, which is advantageous for cleaning purposes. Hence, the tube (1) is very well applicable in appliances such as milk frothers in which liquids are used which are apt to cause contamination of a system for transporting those liquids. It is possible to use elastic material in the tube (1), so that the tube (1) can be folded open for assuming a flat appearance.</p> |
