Abstract
The infusion beverage maker (1) is composed of a tank (3) supplying water which connects via a water pipe (4) to a continuous flow heater (5). A hot water line (10) emanating from the continuous flow heater (5) terminates into a supply port (11) arranged above the filter unit (12), the said filter unit (12) being detachably mounted on the housing (2) of the infusion beverage maker (1). Fixed to the bottom side (41) of the filter unit (12) is a valve assembly (43) forming a valve (18) and controlling the discharge of the infusion beverage into a storing receptacle (27). For every type of infusion beverage to be prepared, there is provision of one separate filter unit (36) each which, in case of need, can be substituted for the previously used filter unit (12).
