Brewing Process
Step 1 Rise of the piston
The ground coffee and the water are dispensed into the
brew chamber during the rising of the piston. This action
compresses the air in the cylinder and forces it through the
coffee mixture in the brew chamber, thereby agitating the
brewing coffee.
Step 2 Pause
Once the piston has reached its top point, it will pause to allow the
coffee to brew to the appropriate strength. At the end of the pause
time, there will be one shot of water to clean the brew chamber.
Step 3 Descent of the piston
The descent of the piston creates a vacuum allowing to extract
the coffee from the grounds through the filter paper and into
the cylinder. The piston makes another pause time allowing
all the coffee to drain from the brew chamber.
Step 4 Coffee delivery
The piston follows its course heading to its lowest point. Distribution
of coffee through the spout begins once the piston has lowered below
the coffee spillway. Meanwhile, the brew chamber lifts to allow the
filler paper to move and discard the spent grounds into the internal
waste bin or coffee chute.
