Abstract
Method for preparing a beverage, from a capsule (1) containing a substance, received in a beverage production device comprising: feeding water by an injection needle (90) while creating liquid tightness between the central inlet portion (8) and the surface of the needle and dispensing the beverage from the capsule by centrifugation through outlets in the peripheral outlet portion (9), wherein the capsule is configured in the central inlet portion to provide liquid tightness between the liquid inlet and the surface of the needle to prevent liquid from leaking out-side of the capsule and wherein the capsule is configured to allow centrifuged liquid to pass through the outlets in the peripheral outlet portion (9).
