Apparatus for making one or more consumption units of coffee

摘要

An apparatus for making one or more consumption units of coffee, comprising a coffee container, means for metering a portion of coffee at a metering station immediately prior to use, means for compacting the coffee in a compacting space at a compacting station, as well as means for transferring the coffee from the metering station to the compacting station and furthermore means for transferring the compacted coffee to an extraction unit connected to a hot water source. Extraction is effected more efficiently by compacting the coffee at a pressure on the coffee of about 1,000 kg/cm2.
