Problems solved by technology

When the outlet of the milk delivery line is arranged in the immediate vicinity of the beverage outlet for brewed coffee, although only brewed coffee is delivered according to the programmed beverage requirement, it is still not possible to completely avoid the delivery of beverages such as from the last one which also delivered milk froth. Leftovers from the preparation process drip into the drinking cup, or when hot coffee is delivered, the steam that occurs now condenses on the opening of the milk outlet line and drips with dissolved residual milk into the drinking cup located below the beverage outlet

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a coffee machine having a beverage outlet through which brewed coffee flows and a milk treatment device, such as a milk frothing device. Background technique [0002] Coffee machines, in particular so-called fully automatic coffee machines, have a brewing unit comprising a brewing chamber in which is located the ground coffee required for brewing coffee. The beverage outlet is connected to the outlet of the brewing unit. The beverage outlet is located above the beverage cup placement surface, and the beverage cup is placed on the beverage cup placement surface so as to hold the brewed coffee flowing out from the beverage outlet during the brewing process of the coffee beverage. The beverage outlet is height-adjustably arranged on the coffee machine, so that the distance between the beverage outlet and the beverage cup can adapt to different heights of different beverage cups. In addition, such coffee machines generally have a...
