Embodiment Construction

[0036] figure 1 The general structure of a single-serving package (1) according to an embodiment of the invention is represented, comprising a substantially rigid structure in the form of a seal (1) (on the left) and a substantially flexible structure in the form of a divider (1') , finally provided as a running bar (not shown, just indicated by dashed lines).

[0037] The single-serve pack (1, 1') provides an internal volume for a dose (2) of at least one edible substance, including a precursor substance of an aromatic beverage, eg in granular form such as eg roasted ground coffee. The single-serve package (1, 1') has a first and a second envelope structure element (3, 4) for providing an envelope surface for the ingress and egress, respectively, of the flow of pressurized fluid to be used, through which dose (2) to prepare an edible product.

[0038] According to a preferred embodiment, said dose (2) is provided in granular form, preferably compressed in a substantially st...

Abstract

The invention relates to a single-serve package (1) for the preparation of edible products, characterized in that it comprises two structural elements (3, 4) for the inlet and outlet of a pressurized fluid flow, respectively, and its outer envelope layer (31, 41) having substantially similar shape and size and the weakened material region (51, 61) having a different shape and / or density, respectively, without perforating the packaging envelope Conditions to improve the quality of beverage production more efficiently. The invention further relates to a system for preparing beverages including coffee of the espresso type, tea and the like, comprising said single-serve pack (1), a beverage preparation machine (10) having at least one extraction device ( 7) The device configured to inject a pressurized fluid onto said single-serving package (1) and collect a flow of beverage therefrom, and also to a method of preparing a beverage based on said single-serving package (1).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to single serving packages (embalagens de ) field for the preparation of edible products, in particular beverages, based on the extraction of the respective precursor substances by means of pressurized fluid streams. [0002] The invention further relates to a system and method for preparing beverages, such as espresso-type coffee, tea and the like, by extracting single-serve packages. Background technique [0003] The prior art includes solutions relating to single-serve packaging containing a given quantity of at least one edible product within an internal volume and configured to be carried out in an extraction device provided in a respective beverage preparation machine such as, for example, an espresso machine. processing. In particular, existing single-serving packages exist in the form of compartments (pastilhas) provided substantially by flexible material or in the form of capsules (cápsula) provided substantial...
