The present invention provides for at least a dispensing spout to be directly formed in the sealing membrane that closes the bottom of a capsule containing an edible raw material for preparing a beverage, e.g. coffee. In this manner, the beverage is able to directly fall from the capsule into a drinking vessel arranged therebelow. What is claimed are both a machine, characterized by the means that form the spout and the open bottom of the container in which the capsule is loaded, and a method for preparing and dispensing the beverage.
