ABSTRACT:
A device for use with a container for liquid, such as a coffee pot, having a neck which defines an opening. The device comprises a sleeve adapted to fit in sealing relationship with the neck. A funnel member is disposed within the sleeve and is movable within the sleeve between a first position and a second position. The funnel member is in the first position when the container is in an upright position whereby liquid can be introduced into the container through the funnel member and the escape of vapors from liquid contained in the container through the sleeve is substantially restricted. The funnel member is in the second position when the container is tipped to pour liquid therefrom whereby liquid in the container can flow past the funnel member between the sleeve and the funnel member.
