ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for use with a coffee maker holds the grounds in a cylindrical configuration in the hot water stream for more uniform and efficient extraction. A thin-wall, right cylinder has a slotted lower edge. A thin-wall frustum of a cone also has a smaller diameter, slotted lower edge. Both lower edges are resilient and cooperate with one another to hold the central portion of a filter elastically therebetween. The peripheral portion of the filter is held securely in the annular space between cylinder and frustum. The slots in the cylinder also provide for lateral liquid flow through the grounds as the volume of liquid in the cylinder increases. The frustum may be configured to facilitate use of a flat filter.
