A coffeemaker including a shower head comprising at least one first hole for dispensing water in a downward direction; and a diverter located below the shower head. The diverter includes at least one second hole for substantially gravity only feed of the water from the shower head in the downward direction towards a coffee grounds pod. The at least one second hole is horizontally offset relative to the at least one first hole to allow velocity of the water from the shower head to decrease before exiting the at least one second hole.
