ABSTRACT:
An improved brewing pot is disclosed that allows the user to stop the brewing process at the point where the decoction is at the desired strength. In the preferred embodiment, the material from which a decoction is to be made is placed in a cylindrical chamber, boiling water is added, and then a circular screen carrying member, wherein the carried screen is exposed in pie shaped slots, is lowered into the chamber to approximately the level of the brewing liquid. When the brew has reached the desired strength, the screen carrying member is lowered into the liquid. The screen member is surrounded by a flexible gasket and the exposed portions of the screen itself are of sufficiently fine mesh so as to segregate the steeping material from the brewed or decanting area. The screen portions are then closed off, preventing fluid communication between the decanting chamber containing the finished brew, and the smaller area containing the brewed material, along with some amount of water. The closing off of the screen is preferably accomplished by an integral and rotatable overlay that corresponds in size to the exposed screen portions.
