ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a domestic coffee maker having in a housing (1) with a front face, a cold water tank and a filter (4) having an outflow orifice (7) situated above an infusion collection jug (8) resting on a base (9). The filter (4) is equipped with a shut-off valve (13) for the outflow orifice (7). The shut-off valve is controlled by an actuating device which is movable relative to the housing. Displacement of the actuating device is caused by the positioning and removal of the jug (8) on the base. A substantial portion of the base (9) projects beyond the front face of housing (1). The filter (4) is enclosed within the housing (1). The actuating device comprises a rod (14) which is mounted to slide horizontally under the filter (4) against the urging of an elastic device (15). One end (16) of the rod (14) controls the valve (13). Movement of the rod (14) is controlled by a movement multiplier device actuated in response to the presence or absence of the pouring spout (12).
