ABSTRACT:
A coffee dispenser includes a housing with a bin for holding coffee and a base with an upright wall for supporting the bin over the base. The bin includes a hopper in the lower end with a dispensing opening therein for dispensing coffee to a coffee filter located on the base. A volume control mechanism includes a slide plate with an opening therein slidably mounted under the hopper dispensing opening to cover a portion of the opening, to reduce the overall opening size. A shutter is mounted under the slide plate and is operable to open and close to thereby dispense coffee into a coffee filter. A trigger mechanism is connected to the shutter to repeatedly open and close the shutter for a uniform time period during each dispensing sequence.
