Problems solved by technology

[0005] A disadvantage of the known technology is that the flow of beverage expelled from the opening is not uniform or "squirrel-tailed", which makes conventional cartridges unsuitable for dispensing beverage directly into a cup
[0006] Another disadvantage is that the manufacture of conventional cartridges requires the step of applying a film sealing the outflow opening for the beverage, and such a step prolongs or complicates manufacture

Embodiment Construction

[0020] With reference to the figures, a cartridge according to the invention, generally indicated by reference numeral 1 or 101 according to the illustrated embodiment, comprises a containment body 2, 102 adapted to contain an edible substance, not shown, from which the beverage is to be extracted and Suitable for receiving fluids, in particular water, preferably at low pressure.

[0021] In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the edible substance may be ground roast coffee and the water at low pressure may be hot water, for example at about 90-99°C and at a pressure comprised between 0.5 bar and 1.5 bar, Such that the beverage obtained is filter coffee, which is also called American coffee or drip brewed coffee. Hot water can be injected into the cartridge 1 , 101 by machines known per se, even by gravity alone.

[0022] Alternatively, the substance contained in the cartridge may be soluble coffee, or any edible substance in powder form, tea leaf or freeze-dried form, o...

Abstract

A cartridge (1) for extracting a beverage by injecting a fluid, comprising a containing body (2) adapted to contain a substance from which the beverage is to be extracted and adapted to receive a fluid, the containing body (2) comprising a at least one opening (5) adapted to prevent an increase in the hydraulic pressure in the cartridge when the fluid is injected, the containing body (2) also includes a plurality of raised portions (6) for obstructing the flow of beverages, They are arranged around the outflow opening (5) in a mutually offset arrangement.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a cartridge for extracting a beverage by injecting a fluid, preferably at low pressure, in particular for obtaining filtered coffee, also known as American or drip brewed coffee. Background technique [0002] Several types of cartridges are currently known for obtaining beverages, such as, for example, espresso coffee or the like, wherein the inner volume of the cartridge containing the substance to be extracted, for example ground roast coffee, enables a good airtight seal. This result is obtained by using a single body for containing the substance, which is cup-shaped and sealed in the upper region by a membrane or a rigid cover which can be perforated to allow the passage of the fluid, usually hot water. injection. [0003] In order to obtain a beverage by injecting hot water at low pressure, such as filter coffee, it is however necessary to prevent or reduce the increase in hydraulic pressure in the cartridge when ...
