  • Patent number: 4343232
    Abstract: There is provided a coffee maker including a housing and a filtering assembly removably suspendible in the housing. The filtering assembly comprises a filter vessel and a surrounding filter-vessel holder, the respective bottoms of each being provided with an outlet and being spaced from each other. An upright partition on the filter-vessel holder bottom divides such space into a discharge section and a drip reservoir. An upright pin extends from the filter-vessel holder bottom for engagement with the filter vessel outlet. The filter vessel and the filter-vessel holder are rotatable with respect to each other to vary the position of the upright pin for control of the rate of coffee flow through the discharge section and also alternatively to position the filter vessel outlet over the drip reservoir.
