Espresso or coffee
capsule machine (1) with a
water pressure generating device and built-in
water heater, comprising at least: - a rotatable
capsule revolver
magazine (8) for the simultaneous holding of several capsules (2) or a tubular
capsule receiving chamber (7) under which a coffee cup (6) can be placed, in which at least one cylindrical, tubular or cigarette-shaped coffee capsule (2) with a conical tip (9) at one end can be inserted from above with the tip pointing downwards into the capsule revolver
magazine (8) or into the hollow cylindrical capsule receiving chamber (7), arranged vertically or obliquely downwards, which is funnel-shaped in the lower area and is provided with a hole at the bottom in which the tip (9) of the coffee capsule (2) is partially inserted, wherein the coffee capsule tip (9) is constructed in a crown-like or ring-like manner or is equipped with predetermined breaking points in the area,which, due to
overpressure inside the coffee capsule (2), can open in a ring shape and thereby assume a downward-pointing crown shape, and through the resulting opening the coffee can flow directly from the coffee capsule (2) into a coffee cup (6), - a piercing device or an injection needle or cannula (12) which can be inserted electrically by an
actuator (37) or manually into the axis of rotation of the capsule revolver
magazine (8) or into the capsule receiving chamber (7), which is coupled to the
water pressure generating device by a fluid line (38) which can pierce the coffee capsule (2) at the upper end from above, penetrate there, and inject the hot water into the coffee capsule under pressure, - an electric valve that regulates the flow of water through the
insertion device or
insertion injection needle or cannula (12), - an electronic control (36) that controls the coffee preparation.
