Abstract: An electric tabletop grill has support elements, such as feet, for placement on a table surface, as well as an electric heater for heating food on the dining table. The tabletop grill also has a fan, a filter, and suction openings provided in the appliance. The fan is arranged such that, in operation, the fan draws air through the suction openings into a filter chamber and causes the air to flow through the filter and then out of the filter chamber through at least one blow-out opening.

Abstract: A device for stirring, frothing and optionally heating liquid foods, particularly for frothing milk, including at least two device parts: First, a freely movable fluid container, which has no electric machine parts and is therefore waterproof and dishwasher-safe, and secondly, a machine part, into the housing of which a motor for a driving magnet and further machine parts, such as a heater and a temperature sensor, can be installed.

Abstract: The espresso machine works with filter capsules and has a scalding unit (4) with two scalding chamber parts (2, 3) which can be moved relative to each other between an opening position and a closing position. The scalding chamber parts (2, 3) enclose between them in their opening position a gap (1). The gap (1) provided for throwing in the filter capsules can be closed by a swivel-type upper lever (15) and towards the bottom also by a swivel-type lower lever (18). Preferably the machine is equipped with a drain pipe (14) the angle of which can be adjusted. The adjustability of the drain pipe (14) permits the use of larger cups whereas spilling of espresso past the cup is avoided when smaller cups are used. Preferably the drain pipe is mounted in the base of a drain tub.
