Embodiment Construction

[0058] figure 1 and 2 A single-dose container 1 for a mocha coffee machine is shown. The container 1 comprises a flexible body 2 having an approximately hollow cylindrical shape and comprising a pair of walls 4, 5 facing each other. Each wall 4, 5 is substantially shaped as a semi-cylindrical and includes a peripheral portion 4a, 5a. The two walls 4 , 5 are welded to each other near their respective peripheral portions 4 a , 5 a such that the concavities of the walls 4 , 5 face each other and define the cavity 3 . The cavity 3 contains a predetermined dose of ground or powdered product P.

[0059] The product P may include, for example, ground mocha-like coffee, ground espresso coffee, powdered cappuccino, powdered chocolate, powdered milk, powdered tea.

[0060] Each wall 4, 5 is made of an edible film which is soluble in hot water, in particular water soluble at a temperature of about 50-60°C.

[0061] In an embodiment, the edible film is of the polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH)...

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to containers for food, in particular to single-dose containers for solid, ground or powdered products, from which beverages (such as mocha coffee, espresso coffee, cappuccino, etc.) can be extracted by heating. Coffee, milk, chocolate, tea, energy drinks, aromatized drinks). Background technique [0002] Single-dose containers, commonly known as pods, are known and may be used in mocha coffee machines and espresso machines. The beverage pod has a soft shell containing a preset amount of ground coffee therein. The housing is substantially biconvex disc-shaped and is made of a permeable material, in particular filter paper. To prepare a coffee beverage using, for example, a mocha machine with the aid of a pod, the pod is inserted into the filter funnel of the coffee machine so that the lower part of the pod faces the boiler and the top part faces the filter bottom of the collecting tank of the mocha machine. During the o...
