A hot beverage maker and dispensing system (10) is provided having an integral beverage reservoir (110) that uses positive air pressure to dispense the brewed beverage from the reservoir (110). The positive air pressure is generated by an electric pump (150) that is energized when an actuator (210) is depressed by a container to be filled with the brewed beverage. The actuator (210) also causes a first valve (42) to pause the beverage during brewing into a brew head (300) from being directed into the reservoir (110). The actuator (210) also causes a second valve (241) in the lid (115) of the reservoir (110) to seal the reservoir (110). Thus, positive air pressure generated by the electric pump (150) forces the beverage in the reservoir (110) through a dispensing outlet (215) into the container. When the actuator (210) is release!, the brewing of the beverage may resume and the beverage may again be directed from the brew head (300) into the reservoir (110).
