  • Patent number: 12053114
    Abstract: A beverage cap with pressure-activate valve for use with a beverage filter press having a hollow cylinder and removable piston that when pressed downward forces liquid through the cylinder and beverage cap into an open vessel. The beverage cap includes a plurality of protrusions that are discontinuous and distributed through the cavity of the cap so as to improve filter support and distribute pressure more uniformly through the cavity and along the filter, thereby allowing use of thin paper filters and avoiding tearing or blow out. The beverage cap can include a removable valve insert that includes a valve body supporting a movable vale and one or more support members that further support the filter at a central valve region, further reinforcing the filter to avoid blow out of paper filters. The beverage cap and beverage cap are suited for pressing of tea or coffee beverages, especially espresso.

  • Patent number: 10071319
    Abstract: An Euler disc comprises a metal disc body having a maximum radius, an upper surface, a lower surface, a circular polished rounded edge joining the upper surface and the lower surface, and a maximum thickness. The upper surface is formed so that the cross-sectional area of the disc body that is above a horizontal bisector line and outside of a vertical quarter line drawn at one half of the maximum radius is less than 75% of the cross-sectional area of the disc body that is below the horizontal bisector line and outside of the vertical quarter line.
