Method for configuring an automatic coffee machine

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The method involves evaluating an input by a control unit (2) based on comparison of input flavor parameters (X1-Xn) with a predefined dataset, which comprises a control parameter for controlling components (3.1-3.m) of an automatic coffee machine based on the input flavor parameter. The components of the automatic coffee machine are controlled by the control unit using the control parameter that is determined during evaluation. Coffee beverage is manually selected at an input unit (1) of the automatic coffee machine before manual selection of the flavor parameters. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is also included for an automatic coffee machine comprising an input unit. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Method for configuring an automatic coffee machine that is utilized for producing beverage e.g. cappuccino, espresso, latte macchiato, coffee, and mocha (all claimed), in gastronomical areas. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The components of the automatic coffee machine are controlled by the control unit with the control parameter that is determined during evaluation of the input, thus enabling user-friendly and simple adjustment of flavor of the coffee beverage without maladjustments. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic block diagram illustrating an input and control principle. A : Data signals X1-Xn : Flavor parameters 1 : Input unit of automatic coffee machine 2 : Control unit 3.1-3.m : Components of automatic coffee machine.
