ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for brewing a coffee beverage from coffee grounds and hot water includes a housing and a base member within the housing. The base member incorporates a generally horizontal porous surface. A brewing cylinder is located within the housing and is located above and generally axially aligned with the porous surface of the base member. The brewing cylinder is movable from a first position in which the bottom of the brewing cylinder is sealingly engaged with the base member and surrounds at least a portion of the porous surface and a second position in which the brewing cylinder is separated from the base member. A mixing channel has a first end communicating with the interior of the brewing cylinder. The channel receives a predetermined portion of coffee grounds and hot water for initially mixing together the coffee grounds and the hot water and for inserting the mixture into the brewing cylinder generally tangentially to the inner surface of the brewing chamber so that the coffee grounds and hot water move around the inner surface of the brewing chamber while moving downwardly for stirring the coffee grounds and water to brew the coffee beverage in an accelerated manner.
