Abstract: A method for generating a coffee beverage in an automatic coffee machine brewing device supplies pressurized brewing water at a brewing device brewing water inlet according to a first brewing water supply mode during a first time period. During a second time period, a brewing water parameter is determined correlating with the volume flow and/or pressure of the supplied brewing water. A mode adjustment variable is set for a second brewing water supply mode using the brewing water parameter. Brewing water is supplied at the brewing water inlet during the second time period according to the second brewing water supply mode. The mode adjustment variable defines at least one continuous mode for the second brewing water supply mode, in which the brewing water is continuously supplied, and a pulse mode for the second brewing water supply mode, in which the brewing water is supplied in pulses.

Abstract: An automated coffee machine grinder features two grinding bodies that are rotatable relative to one another about a rotational grinding axis using a driveshaft device as well as an output opening for ground material arranged laterally of the grinding elements. The driveshaft device is positioned divergent from the rotational grinding axis. The output opening and the driveshaft device can be positioned differently relative to one another.

Abstract: What is described is a new grinder, which serves to grind coffee beans and which is embodied as conical grinder. To improve the grinding process, the grinding cones and/or grinding ring encompass grinding surfaces that may define an angle of inclination, which may be in each case greater than 90° and smaller than 180°, relative to a tool reference plane.

Abstract: A new grinder is described which is used to grind coffee beans, with a first grinding element and a second grinding element, wherein the two grinding elements are rotatable relative to one another, in such a way that coffee beans are ground by the grinding elements into a coffee powder, and with an entrainer wheel rotatable with the first grinding element, said entrainer wheel being used to convey, on its edge region, the ground coffee powder out of the grinding elements via an exit channel. The edge region of the entrainer wheel is constituted tapered towards the grinding elements with a concave profile, in such a way that an inner high edge (Ri) and an outer low edge (Ra) are formed, and the entrainer wheel comprises a plurality of entrainer vanes distributed in the edge region over the periphery.

Abstract: Within a brewing unit for a coffee machine, a brewing chamber, which is arranged in a pivotable brewing cylinder, can be filled with ground coffee powder by using a filling device. For the purpose of introducing the coffee powder, the brewing chamber has a filling opening. With the aim of avoiding undesired deposits of grounds in the region of the upper side of the brewing unit, and also of improving levels of hygiene, a projection extends in the filling direction outside the brewing chamber, wherein the projection is such that the exit region of the filling device is introduced with the formation of an interspace between the projection and a side wall of the exit region such that the projection substantially fully surrounds the exit opening of the exit region. Coffee powder supplied in the filling device drops from the exit opening of the exit region, directly through a through-opening of the projection and the filling opening, into the brewing chamber without striking against the projection.

Abstract: What is described is a new grinder, which serves to grind coffee beans and which is embodied as disk grinder. To improve the grinding process, the first and/or second grinding disk, respectively, encompass grinding surfaces that may define an angle of inclination, which may be in each case greater than 90° and smaller than 180°, relative to a tool reference plane.

Abstract: An automated coffee machine grinder (1, 25, 30) features two grinding bodies (4) that are rotatable relative to one another about a rotational grinding axis (5) by means of a driveshaft device (10, 31), as well as an outlet opening (2) for ground material arranged laterally of the grinding elements (4). The driveshaft device (10, 31) is positioned divergent from the rotational grinding axis (5). The output opening (2) and the driveshaft device (10, 31) can be positioned differently relative to one another.
