Abstract: An arrangement for a coffee machine includes a filter holder adapted to receive a filter to be filled with ground coffee. The filter holder includes an outlet below which a container to be filled with coffee may be positioned. A bracket is arranged on the coffee machine. The bracket and coffee holder are constructed so that the filter holder is removably attached to the bracket. A locking mechanism is attached to the bracket to lock the filter holder in a locked position when the container to be filled with coffee is arranged below the outlet.

Abstract: A method and a device for producing filter inserts (1), in particular filter inserts (1) for preparing a coffee or tea filtrate, including the continuous folding (A) of a filter paper sheet (2) into a double layer (3), partially binding (B) the double layer (3) to a plurality of interconnected filter inserts (1) using at least one stamped seam (4) and separating (D) the interconnected filter inserts (1) from the filter paper sheet (2). The filter inserts (1) are provided with a label (5) after folding (A).

Abstract: A filter-paper insert for making brewed beverages at least two layers of filter paper having a base and two opposite sides. The two layers are connected together at the base and at the two opposite sides to define an interior space that can be filled from a filling opening opposite the base. The filter paper includes a plurality of slots to increase permeability. The filter-paper insert has a lower region adjacent the base and an upper adjacent the filling opening. The lower region has fewer slots per surface area than the upper region.

Abstract: A water tank for a household device includes a tank container with a bottom and side walls. At least one of the side walls includes filling-level markings that comprise a profiling formed integrally with the at least one side wall.

Abstract: A device for the preparation of hot water includes a water reservoir, a tube system coupled to the water reservoir and a heating unit to heat the water passing through the tube system from the water reservoir. A float switch detects a water level in the water reservoir. The float switch includes a float arranged in the tube system to measure the water level in the water reservoir and a sensor responsive to the float to transmits a signal to an electronic component to activate the heating unit in dependence on the water level in the water reservoir.
