<p>A beverage extracting apparatus for a vending machine is capable of extracting both a foamy beverage extracted under a high pressure and a less foamy beverage extracted under a low pressure using one apparatus. A hot-water-supply-side flow pipe (5) for causing hot water into an extracting cylinder (1) is provided with a first flow path (5a) having a low flow resistance and a second flow path (5b) having a high flow resistance. By opening and closing an electromagnetic valve (5c) in the first flow path (5a), a different flow resistance is given to the hot water supplied into the extracting cylinder (1). Therefore, espresso coffee can be extracted by decreasing the flow resistance of hot water supplied into the extracting cylinder (1) and thereby increasing an internal pressure of the extracting cylinder (1), and regular coffee can be extracted by increasing the flow resistance and thereby decreasing the internal pressure of the extracting cylinder (1). <IMAGE></p> |
