Description of the Related Art
[0002] Coffee brewing apparatus are broadly classified into automatic coffee machines and espresso machines. Automatic coffee machines are preferred in offices where the end user has limited skills in brewing coffee and just wants a readymade cup of coffee mixed with milk, whereas espresso machines are typically used to produce espresso which can be combined with milk by a barista to produce a latte or a cappuccino, in a coffee shop for example. Automatic coffee machines are used for dispensing other beverages also, to provide choice to the user, such as hot chocolate, or hot water that is used to make tea.
[0003] Tea consumption is predominant in South-Asian countries with a majority of the population preferring tea as a beverage of choice. Typically, a fresh cup of tea with milk can be prepared manually with minimal means and equipment. Also, hot water dispensed by an automatic coffee machine can be used to make a cup of tea by dipping a tea bag in the hot water. Whereas this approach of using an existing automatic coffee machine to make tea is convenient, the quality of tea extraction and strength of the tea thus obtained is inadequate. Thus, tea drinkers prefer not to use the automatic coffee machines and go elsewhere for a conventional but fresh manually brewed cup of tea.
[0004] There are tea machines that are used for brewing tea in a semi-automatic manner. They are typically used for brewing large volumes of tea, at retail outlets for example, which require substantial manual intervention and have several compartments that made them bulky and cumbersome to use. The complexity of operation and cleaning of these machines, particularly the brewing container, makes them labour intensive, and unsuitable for use without hiring trained support staff.
[0005] Therefore, in light of the foregoing discussion, there exists a need to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks in existing beverage machines such as inadequate tea extraction, cumbersome operation and cleaning, and labour requirements for maintenance.
