A brewing head of an espresso maker is described wherein charging with ground coffee and disposal of coffee grounds can be effected in a very simple manner with a cost-effective configuration of the brewing head. For this purpose, the brewing head is divided into two functional units, with the upper section being configured as a carousel. The stationary lower section comprises the brewing chamber, which is provided with a lifting piston controlled by the turning motion of the upper section for the elimination of the coffee grounds. The rotatable uppersection comprises a brewing piston, which plunges into the brewing chamber during the brewing process, and a clearing blade, which transports the coffee grounds lifted out of the brewing chamber by the controlled lifting piston into a disposal opening.
