ABSTRACT:
A control system for a beverage brewing apparatus which includes a programmable control module and a separate input device. The control system is used with a beverage brewing apparatus of the type having an infusion assembly for retaining and filtering a brewing substance, a heated water source and a water distribution system for transporting water from the heated water source to the infusion assembly. The programmable control module controls numerous adjustable functions associated with the brewer and stores at least one function limit for each of the functions which it controls. The separate input device is selectively attachable to the control module for manipulating the function limits of the programmable function retained and controlled by the control module. Function controls are associated with the input device for selecting a function to manipulate and for incrementing and decrementing the limit or limits of the selected function. The control module and input device allow selection of control limits which affect a valve for controlling water flow from the heated water source to the infusion assembly. These control limits establish a dispensing cycle which periodically dispenses water from the heated water source through the water distribution system to the infusion assembly to prevent overflowing the infusion assembly.
