<p>A coffee centrifuge for extracting a coffee beverage from coffee solids, includes a rotary holder having a sleeve portion for bounding a space for receiving the coffee solids. A rotor has an outer edge for scraping an inner surface of the sleeve portion and ejecting coffee solids from an opening in the sleeve portion. A coupling, such as a screw coupling, between a drive shaft and the rotor, provides relative axial displacement between the rotor and the rotary holder depending upon the direction of rotation of the drive shaft. Journal means supporting the rotary holder are disposed in a demountable cradle, allowing the holder to be readily removed for cleaning.</p> |
