Easy release filter for espresso brewing
The patent application (Publication Number: US20240016330A1) describes a unique portafilter designed for brewing beverages. The portafilter includes a cavity for securing a filter basket, a circumferential recessed groove, and a spring that can be manipulated to secure or release the filter basket. The spring features a tab for controlling tension and can be positioned in a first state to secure the filter basket or a second state to release it. The design also includes a handle and a drip hole in the cavity for added functionality.
Furthermore, the portafilter design includes features such as a tab extending through an opening in the portafilter, notch members for retaining the tab in different positions, and a terminal point on the spring.
