Abstract: An electrical device includes a battery-mount part (40) configured such that a battery used as a power supply of a power tool is mountable thereon, and a heat-generating element (54) for boiling water using electric power from the battery (B1, B2) mounted on the battery-mount part. The electrical device further includes a drip case (21) for holding a pod, in which a predetermined amount of tea leaves or coffee grounds is encased in a permeable bag-shaped element. A hot water supply (50y) supplies the water boiled by the heat-generating element (54) automatically to the drip case (21). An extraction part (21p) in the drip case (21) allows a beverage produced by the hot water that has been poured onto (injected into) the pod to downwardly flow.

Abstract: The resistance method is a process for conditioning of an electric current and subjecting it to manipulated resistance levels to cause an effect on a substance as the current passes through. The method has two basic functions. One is to condition the electric current. This takes place during the series of steps that manipulate the frequency, voltage, and amps to provide a combination suitable for a predetermined threshold or action. The other is to manipulate the resistance of a substance. This is done by manipulating the atmospheric pressure, pH, salinity, and temperature of the substance, all of which takes place in a reactor. The reactor provides an isolated, enclosed environment for the manipulation to take place. The method also utilizes an electronic control system.

Abstract: A steam generating apparatus includes a body for receiving water to be heated and has a first portion including a first metal, and a heating device having a second portion including a second metal. The heating device includes a heating plate connected with the body by forming an intermetallic layer between the first and second portions. A temperature sensor measures temperature indicative of pressure inside the body and thermally contacts the heating device outside the body. A method of controlling the pressure of steam in the steam generating apparatus includes setting the target water temperature for a first time period to a first set temperature; setting the target water temperature for a second time period to a second set temperature higher than the first set temperature; and setting the target water temperature for a third time period to a third set temperature lower than the second set temperature.

Abstract: A hot beverage brewing apparatus. A pressurized hot liquid delivery system provides liquid under pressure within a range of acceptable brewing temperatures without any mechanical pump. Water is apportioned into sealable tank volumes, one of which is heated to boil the liquid and produce steam under pressure. The pressurized steam displaces the liquid from the tank volumes in proportion and at a temperature that is within the acceptable brewing range. The hot liquid under pressure is directed to a capsule receiving station to infuse a material in a capsule. The capsule dispenses the brewed beverage without contacting the brewing apparatus.
