Abstract: A method for producing a cup for a capsule for the preparation of infused or soluble beverages is provided. The method includes the steps of co-injection molding a cup of multilayer plastic material with an intermediate layer of the gas barrier type, the cup being a single body provided with a bottom having a nozzle, and an inner base including a completely closed central portion covering the nozzle, partially cutting the central portion to form at least one opening connecting the inside of the cup and the nozzle, and a further step of folding a portion of the cup between the opening and the nozzle towards the inside of the nozzle to form a deflector.

Abstract: A capsule (1) for the preparation of infused or soluble beverages comprises a cup (2) suitable to contain a substance (11) to be infused or dissolved, provided internally with a base (33) provided with an outer edge (360) and a relief (320) between which is defined a depression (330) for the collection of the infused beverage. The capsule (1) comprises a disc (5) fixed in a peelable manner on the edge (360) so as to separate from it due to the effect of the pressure increase inside the capsule (1). The opening of the capsule (1) occurs as a result of the deformation of the disc (5) due to the pressure exerted by the fluid inside the capsule (1). Advantageously, the base (33), in correspondence of the depression (330), is provided with a plurality of supports (90, 91, 92) provided with a profile decreasing towards the depression (330), suitable to prevent the deformation of the disc (5) from interfering with the outflow of the beverage towards the opening (31).
