ABSTRACT:
A reusable multilayer filter for use with a beverage brewing apparatus. The multilayer filter includes a foraminous support player, a porous mesh layer and a multiplicity of wrinkles formed in the porous mesh layer. The foraminous support layer has a multiplicity of spaced apart holes extending through the layer. The porous mesh layer overlies and is attached to the foraminous support layer. The mesh layer is formed of a woven, etched, or deposited material which has a multiplicity of small openings extending therethrough. The openings in the porous mesh layer are smaller than the holes in the foraminous support layer for selectively retaining material having a dimension larger than the openings. The wrinkles in the porous mesh layer are formed in spaced apart areas which are defined by a perimeter of the holes in the foraminous support layer. The wrinkles increase the effective surface area of the filter. A method of forming the filter includes providing a support layer material which is generally rigid, and a flexible mesh layer material. The mesh material is attached to the support layer material traversing the holes. The support layer material with the attached mesh layer is then deformed to form a desired concaved filter shape. A multiplicity of wrinkles are formed in the mesh layer within the perimeters of the holes.
