Abstract

See full text

A combined multiple beverage brewing apparatus is capable of brewing an individual serving of at least two different beverages such as coffee or tea. The apparatus generally includes a removable brewing basket with separate brewing sections, which are usable in different brewing positions and have separate spouts such that different beverages may be brewed and dispensed without contacting the same spout. The brewing basket is configured to receive a first reusable filter that holds a first brewing material and filters as water passes through and a second reusable filter that holds a second brewing material while hot water contained in the brewing basket steeps the second brewing material. At least one of the brewing sections further includes a valve to hold hot water in the brewing basket until a brewing release mechanism actuates the valve to release the brewed beverage through the dispensing spout.
