Abstract: A beverage brewer assembly has a base configured to rest on a surface, an upward facing vessel support, and a tower coupled to and extending up from the base. The tower has a stationary lower section and an upper section vertically height adjustable relative to the lower section. A head is coupled to the upper section of the tower and has a cantilevered section extending forward from the tower and spaced above the vessel support. A height adjust mechanism includes a vertically oriented male threaded shaft interconnecting the upper and lower sections of the tower. Relative rotation between the male threaded shaft and a female threaded element carried on a part of the tower selectively raises and lowers the vertical position of the upper section and head relative to the lower section and base.

Abstract: An airpot beverage has a receptacle with an interior space capable of holding a liquid and a top opening near an upper edge of the receptacle. A lid assembly covers the top opening and has a lid cover, an actuator on the lid cover, and a lid bottom. The lid cover and the lid bottom together define an interior cavity within the lid assembly. A bellows housing is defined within the interior cavity and forms a chamber therein. A bellows is housed within the chamber and has a flexible sidewall substantially and closely surrounded by the bellows housing. The bellows is capable of being expanded and compressed. The bellows chamber can change in size to accommodate compression and expansion of the bellows.
