ABSTRACT:
An electrically operated coffee making machine wherein a filter holder for a removable filter is mounted in the housing for pivotal movement about a vertical axis between operative and inoperative positions. The handle of the filter in the filter holder is received in a recess of the housing when the filter holder assumes its operative position in which the outlet of a riser discharges hot water into the supply of comminuted coffee beans in a bag within the filter. The bottom wall of the filter has an outlet which permits freshly brewed coffee to flow through the centrally located opening of a flat cover into a coffee pot when the latter rests on a heating platform on the base of the housing. A pivotable valving element is biased by a spring to seal the outlet in the bottom wall of the filter when the pot and its cover are removed, and a pivotable actuator is mounted in the housing below the recess to pivot the valving element to open position as soon as it is engaged by the flat upper side of the cover, i.e., when the pot is placed onto the heating platform.
