Embodiment Construction

[0023]The invention relates to a capsule kit 1A for the preparation of a beverage in a centrifugal brewing device.

[0024]The kit 1A comprises a capsule 2 and an insert 3. The capsule comprises containment walls forming a main cavity 4 of central axis “I” containing beverage ingredients. The size of the capsule may vary depending on the amount of ingredients stored therein. In a preferred mode, the depth (t) of the cavity of the capsule may differ whereas the largest diameter (dmax) of the capsule remains constant.

[0025]The insert 3 and capsule 2 are two separate parts. The insert comprises a ring-shaped portion 5 intended to form a valve engaging portion for engaging against a valve means of the centrifugal brewing device as it will be later explained.

[0026]The ring-shaped portion 5 of the insert has preferably an outer diameter (D) larger than the largest diameter (dmax) of the capsule.

[0027]The insert has a transversal annular or circular portion 6 which is inwardly connected to th...

Abstract

Kit (1A) for the preparation of a beverage in a centrifugal brewing device (30) comprising a capsule (2) by feeding liquid in the capsule and rotating the capsule along a central axis (I) to produce centrifugal forces on the liquid traversing the capsule thereby forcing the beverage out of the capsule by such centrifugal forces, wherein the capsule comprises containment walls forming a main cavity (4) of central axis (I) containing beverage ingredients; wherein said kit further comprising an insert (3) which is separate from the capsule and comprising a ring-shaped portion (5) intended to form a valve engaging portion engaging against a valve means (33) of the centrifugal brewing device.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to the field of portioned beverage using capsules for preparing a beverage in a beverage brewing device. The invention more particularly relates to a capsule kit for preparing a beverage in a centrifugal brewing unit.BACKGROUND ART[0002]The preparation of a beverage by a single-use capsule containing beverage ingredients is known. In general, the capsule is inserted in a beverage production device, such as a coffee machine, liquid is fed in the capsule, the liquid interacts with the beverage ingredients and a beverage is extracted from the capsule under pressure or by gravity.[0003]The preparation of a beverage by using the centrifugation is known. The principle mainly consists in providing beverage ingredients in a container of the capsule, feeding liquid in the receptacle and rotating the receptacle at elevated speed to ensure interaction of liquid with the ingredients so as to create a gradient of pressure of liquid in the...
