    [0001] [001] The present description refers to a beverage preparation system, a coded insert for use in such systems and methods of use. FUNDAMENTALS
    [0002] [002] Machine for dispensing drinks are well known. In more recent times 'on demand' beverage machines have been marketed, which allow drinks to be produced on an individual basis as required by a user from individual sealed capsules, cartridges or flexible bags of ground coffee.
    [0003] [003] Even more recently, beverage machines allowing convenient on-demand distribution of a variety of beverage types have been produced. An example of such a system is marketed under the brand name ® TASSIMO by Kraft Foods, Inc. This system (as described in EP1440639) uses a beverage preparation machine comprising a barcode reader and a variety of cartridges of beverage in which each beverage cartridge contains one or more beverage ingredients and is encoded with a barcode. In use, the beverage machine's barcode reader scans and reads the barcode on a beverage cartridge after being inserted into the machine and uses the information decoded from the barcode to adjust one or more distribution parameters of the beverage machine for this dispensing cycle. For each beverage cartridge the manufacturer determines the distribution parameters and applies the relevant barcode at the time of manufacture.
    [0004] [004] WO2011 / 141535 describes a support adapted to be associated with a beverage capsule comprising a circumferential sequence of symbols that can be read by an external device when the capsule is operated in rotation. In one embodiment, the support may be a separate part that can be coupled to a capsule that has no built-in means for storing information in order to provide a means of adding such information to the capsule. The purpose of the support is to provide a means for adding a machine-readable code to a capsule that has no machine-readable code to allow the capsule to be dispensed using a beverage preparation machine that requires a code to be read by a code reader in order to work. However, the holder of WO2011 / 141535 is not adapted and configured to provide a means for modifying the delivery parameters of an already encoded beverage capsule or cartridge that is already usable in the beverage preparation machine. BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE
    [0005] [005] The present disclosure provides a beverage preparation system comprising a beverage preparation machine, a cartridge containing one or more beverage ingredients, and a coded insert; the beverage preparation machine comprising an infusion head for receiving the cartridge; the cartridge comprising a primary code configured to provide operating instructions for the beverage preparation machine to supply a beverage from the cartridge; the coded insert being separated from the cartridge and insertable together with the cartridge in the infusion head; wherein the coded insert comprises a secondary code configured to provide alternative operating instructions for the beverage preparation machine to supply a modified beverage from the cartridge.
    [0006] [006] In the present disclosure, reference for delivering a drink includes within its meaning (unless the context requires otherwise) the distribution of a complete drink, for example, a cup of coffee, as well as the distribution of a portion of a drink, for example, the coffee portion of a cappuccino.
    [0007] [007] In the present disclosure, reference to a cartridge includes in its meaning (unless the context requires otherwise) rigid and semi-rigid cartridges, capsules and similar containers for beverage ingredients as well as flexible pods, pads and similar containers for ingredients of the drink.
    [0008] [008] Advantageously, the use of the coded insert allows a user of the beverage preparation machine to control the beverage distribution parameters. For example, a variety of coded inserts can be provided with a user able to choose a coded insert to use depending on the type of drink desired. By inserting the coded insert into the infusion head together with the cartridge a simplified system is achieved as it is not necessary to provide the beverage preparation machine with a separate mechanism, such as a card reader, to receive the coded insert. Therefore, the beverage preparation system can be more compact and less expensive to manufacture.
    [0009] [009] Advantageously, with such cartridges, the coded insert can be used to modify the dispensed drink in comparison to the way in which the drink will normally be dispensed using the primary code. Thus, the user can choose whether to use the cartridge to produce a normal drink (without using the coded insert) or to use the cartridge with the coded insert to produce a modified drink.
    [0010] [0010] The modified drink may differ from the standard drink in one or more of the following group of parameters: volume of distributed drink, temperature of distributed drink, and flow rate of distributed drink.
    [0011] [0011] The system finds particular application in allowing cartridges, which are normally used to distribute a hot drink, to be modified to be more suitable for preparing a cold drink. For example, a cartridge containing roasted and ground coffee can be provided with a primary code that is configured to instruct the beverage preparation machine to normally prepare a 280 ml volume coffee drink with water at a temperature of 90 degrees Celsius. The drink would normally be made in an empty glass. The coded insert can contain a secondary code that is configured to instruct the beverage preparation machine to use water at the same temperature of 90 degrees Celsius, but only distribute a volume of 230 ml. This reduced volume allows the drink to be better distributed in a glass containing ice cubes or the like and, thus, to prepare a cold coffee drink.
    [0012] [0012] The coded insert can be located so as to obscure the primary code provided on the cartridge from a code reader of the beverage preparation machine. This ensures that the secondary code is read when desired.
    [0013] [0013] When inserting the coded insert and cartridge for the infusion head, the coded insert can be shaped and sized to be stacked under the cartridge. Advantageously, this provides a space-efficient method of inserting the coded insert into the infusion head. It also allows the cartridge to remain stable inserted in the infusion head. When the coded insert is relatively thin, this arrangement also allows the coded insert to be used without modifying the infusion head as the small additional height of the cartridge plus the coded insert does not materially affect the closure of the infusion head.
    [0014] [0014] The beverage preparation machine may comprise a barcode reader and the coded insert may comprise a barcode. The barcode can use a proprietary coding symbology or a standardized symbology such as Universal Product Code (UPC) or European Article Number-13 (EAN13). Although the use of bar codes is preferred, other means of encoding can be used, such as QR codes, transponders such as RFID tags or even projections, pins or other projections that physically interact with a reader on the infusion head.
    [0015] [0015] The coded insert may comprise a plurality of codes such as bar codes. This allows for a single coded insert to provide a user with a plurality of modified drinks to choose from.
    [0016] [0016] The infusion head may comprise an inlet punch to form an inlet in the cartridge and / or an outlet punch for forming an outlet in the cartridge, wherein the coded insert may comprise one or more openings such that the coded insert can be located over the entry punch and / or exit punch without perforating the coded insert. Advantageously the coded insert is suitable for use with the infusion head which has one or more punch elements projecting since it can be located so that the element (s) is not hindered.
    [0017] [0017] The drink preparation system can be a 'on demand' system using individual cartridges that are sealed before use and designed primarily to distribute individual drinks.
    [0018] [0018] The present disclosure also provides a coded insert for use with a beverage preparation machine of the type comprising an infusion head and with a cartridge of the type containing one or more beverage ingredients and having a primary code configured to provide instructions for the beverage preparation machine to deliver a beverage from the cartridge; the coded insert being molded and sized to be locatable within the infusion head together with the cartridge and comprising a secondary code configured to provide alternative operating instructions for the beverage preparation machine to supply a modified beverage from the cartridge.
    [0019] [0019] Advantages of the coded insert can be understood with reference to the above observations made in the beverage preparation system of the present disclosure.
    [0020] [0020] Preferably the modified drink differs from the drink in one or more of the following group of parameters: volume of distributed beverage, temperature of distributed beverage, and flow rate of distributed beverage.
    [0021] [0021] The coded insert may comprise a bar code.
    [0022] [0022] The coded insertion can comprise a multiplicity of bar codes. The coded insert can be inserted into the infusion head is a number of angular orientations in order to allow the selection of a necessary secondary code. Alternatively, the coded insert may comprise first and second parts that are relatively mobile with each other to allow selection of a necessary secondary code.
    [0023] [0023] The coded insert may comprise one or more openings to accommodate an inlet punch and / or an outlet punch from the beverage preparation machine.
    [0024] [0024] The coded insertion can have a planar shape.
    [0025] [0025] The coded insert may comprise a machine-readable code on the reverse side and user operating instructions on the reverse side. User operating instructions can be provided as written words or pictograms.
    [0026] [0026] The coded insert is preferably reusable.
    [0027] [0027] The present description further provides a method of dispensing a beverage from a beverage preparation machine using a cartridge containing one or more beverage ingredients, and a separate coded insert, wherein the cartridge comprises a configured primary code to provide instructions for the beverage preparation machine to supply a beverage from the cartridge, and the coded insert comprises a secondary code configured to provide alternative operating instructions for the beverage preparation machine for the delivery of a modified beverage from the cartridge; the method comprising the steps of: insert the cartridge and the coded insert into an infusion head of the beverage preparation machine; operate the beverage preparation machine to read the operating instructions from the coded insert; prepare and distribute the drinks according to the operating instructions read from the coded insert.
    [0028] [0028] The advantages of the method can be understood with reference to the observations made above in the beverage preparation system of the present disclosure.
    [0029] [0029] When inserting the coded insert and cartridge in the infusion head, the coded insert can obscure the primary code of a code reader of the beverage preparation machine.
    [0030] [0030] The cartridge can be sealed before insertion into the infusion head. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
    [0031] [0031] Modalities of the present disclosure will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the attached drawings, in which: Figure 1 is a reverse side view of an encoded insert in accordance with the present disclosure; Figure 2 is a view of the obverse side of the coded insert of Figure 1; Figure 3 is a perspective view of the coded insert of Figure 1; Figure 4 is a close-up side view of the coded insertion of Figure 1; Figures 5a to 5d illustrate the insertion of the coded insertion of Figure 1 in a beverage preparation machine; and Figure 6 is a view of an alternative coded insert according to the present disclosure.
    [0032] [0032] The coded insert 1 of Figures 1 and 2 comprises a flat body having an obverse side 2 and a reverse side 3.
    [0033] [0033] In the following examples, the coded insert 1 will be described for use with a Tassimo ® beverage preparation machine manufactured by Kraft Foods, Inc., and which is described, for example, in EP1440639, the contents of which are incorporated herein in your totality. Such a beverage preparation machine comprises a water reservoir that is fluidly connected to a water inlet of an infusion head comprising a fixed lower part and a hinged upper part and a hinged cartridge assembly that can be opened to allow insertion of a cartridge (such as a T-disc ® cartridge) containing beverage ingredients and provided with a bar code to provide operating parameters for the beverage preparation machine. The infusion head comprises an outlet at the bottom, through which drinks are dispensed. The infusion head is shaped to receive the cartridge in a specific orientation. The water is heated either by providing an immersion heater in the reservoir or pumping the water through a resistive flow heater or thermoblock. One or more temperature sensors are provided to control the temperature of the distributed water. Volume control is provided by using a flow meter or by controlling the number of pump cycles for a positive displacement pump. The beverage machine comprises a microprocessor control connected to the heater, pump, flow meter, temperature sensor (s) and also to a barcode reader on the infusion head. The infusion head is provided with an inlet punch attached to the water inlet and an outlet punch attached to the outlet of the infusion head. In use, the perforators form an inlet and an outlet in the previously sealed cartridges inserted in the infusion head. Preferably, the inlet and outlet punches are formed as a single replaceable punch unit. In use, when inserting the cartridge in the infusion head the barcode reader is operated to read the cartridge barcode and then configure the infusion parameters for the individual preparation cycle.
    [0034] [0034] It should be understood that the present disclosure is not limited to a coded insert for Tassimo ® drink machines and the coded insert 1 can be configured to work with other drink preparation machines.
    [0035] [0035] The flat body of the coded insert 1 is substantially disk-shaped although a lobe 37 is provided at a point on the circumference. Lobe 37 provides an appropriate handle for gripping the coded insert 1 and also ensures correct alignment of the coded insert 1 when inserted into the brewing machine's infusion head, as shown in Figure 5a to 5d.
    [0036] [0036] The coded insert 1 comprises a central opening 4 and a peripheral opening 5. The peripheral opening 5 may comprise a groove (as shown in Figures 1 and 2) that extends inwardly from the edge of the body part path in the towards the center of the disc. Alternatively, the peripheral opening 5 may take the form of a hole completely bounded by the material of the coded insert 1 which is located near the peripheral edge of the coded insert 1.
    [0037] [0037] The obverse side 2 is provided with two barcodes 19 (a single barcode 19 can be provided where the coded insert 1 is designed to work with only a single model of beverage preparation machine. Various barcodes 19 can be supplied where the coded insert 1 is designed to work with various models of beverage preparation machines that have their barcode readers located in different positions on their respective infusion heads).
    [0038] [0038] The reverse side 3 is provided with a plurality of pictograms 6 providing user operating instructions.
    [0039] [0039] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the coded insert 1 is thin in comparison to its diameter. Typical dimensions for an example are a diameter (not including lobe 37) of 68 mm and a thickness preferably of 0.3 to 1.0 mm.
    [0040] [0040] The coded insert 1 can be manufactured from any suitable material, advantageously one that is durable, water resistant and clean. An example is polyethylene terephthalate (PET).
    [0041] [0041] In use, as shown in Figures 5a to 5d, the brewing head 51 of the beverage preparation machine 50 is opened to expose the articulating cartridge assembly 52 which normally directly receives the cartridge 10 containing the beverage ingredients. Instead, the coded insert 1 is first placed in the cartridge assembly 52 with the obverse side 2 lower and the cartridge 10 is stacked on top.
    [0042] [0042] The infusion head 51 is then closed by pivoting the cartridge assembly 52, cartridge 10 and the coded insert 1 in a downward direction in order to pierce the bottom part of the cartridge 10 with the inlet and outlet perforators of the brewing machine of drink 50 in the normal way. During this closing operation the outlet punch passes through the central opening 4 of the coded insert 1 and the input punch passes through the peripheral opening 5 in such a way that the coded insert 1 is not damaged and the punches are not prevented.
    [0043] [0043] When stacked in this configuration the bar code 19 in the coded insert 1 is aligned with the infusion head bar code reader and also prevents the bar code in the cartridge 10 from being read when the start / stop button 54 is held down.
    [0044] [0044] Thus, when pressing the start / stop button 54 the barcode 19 of the coded insert 1 will be read in place of the barcode of the cartridge 10 and a modified drink will be distributed.
    [0045] [0045] Coded insert 1 can be used to modify one or more infusion parameters for a number of reasons. One reason may be to change the strength of the drink by changing the volume of the drink distributed or the rate of water flow. Another reason may be to provide better cold or cold drinks using 10 cartridges normally configured to distribute hot drinks. Example 1 - iced latte
    [0046] [0046] Coded insert 1 is provided to distribute a cold latte drink using a T-Disc ® "Espresso" and a T-disc ® "Creamer from milk", both available from Kraft Foods, Inc. First a user places six cubes of ice in a glass. Then, the coded insert 1 and the "Creamer from milk" T-disc ® are inserted in the stacked configuration and infused to deliver a smaller than normal portion of milk-based drink to the ice cubes. The coded insert 1 and Tdisc ® "Creamer from milk" are removed and the "Expresso" T-disc is inserted and infused as normal to add a portion of coffee to the cup to complete the iced coffee.
    [0047] [0047] Suitable pictograms 6 for this example are shown in Figure 1. Example 2 - iced espresso
    [0048] [0048] Coded insert 1 is provided to distribute a cold espresso drink using a "Espresso" T-Disc ® available from Kraft Foods, Inc. First a user puts six ice cubes in a glass. Then, the coded insert 1 and T-disc ® "Expresso" are inserted in a stacked configuration and infused to dispense a portion of the smaller than normal coffee beverage to the ice cubes to complete the iced milk coffee. Optionally, a spoon of sugar can be added. Example 3 - iced mint tea
    [0049] [0049] A coded insert 1 is provided to distribute a cold mint tea drink using a TDisc ® "Twinings ® Green Tea and Mint" available from Kraft Foods, Inc. First a user puts six ice cubes in a glass. Then, the coded insert 1 and the "Twinings ® Green Tea and Mint" T-Disc ® are inserted in a stacked configuration and infused to deliver a smaller-than-normal portion of tea drink to the ice cubes to complete the iced mint tea. Optionally, a spoon of sugar can be added.
    [0050] [0050] The coded insert 1 can be reusable.
    [0051] [0051] In a modified embodiment, the coded insert 1 can be disk-shaped without a lobe 37 and be provided with a plurality of bar codes 19. In use, the coded insert can be inserted into the infusion head in a plurality of angular orientations to allow a user to choose a specific barcode to be scanned.
    [0052] [0052] Figure 6 shows an alternative coded insert 101 which in turn is flat and relatively thin, but comprises a first member 110 and a second member 111 that is rotatably mounted to the first member 110 by any suitable means such as a pin on one member and a retaining fit on the other member. The second member 111 is disk-shaped. The first member 110 is generally disk-shaped with the exception of a projecting lobe 137 and a cutting edge portion 113 which exposes the second member 111. The first member 110 is provided with a rectangular window 112.
    [0053] [0053] The second member 111 is provided with a plurality of barcodes 119 that can be viewed indifferently through the window 112 by rotating the second member 111 with respect to the first member 112.
    [0054] [0054] Both the second member 111 and the first member 111 have an aligned central opening 104. The first member has a peripheral opening 105 and the second member has a plurality of outer openings that each aligns with the peripheral opening 105 of the first member 110 when barcodes 119 are registered with window 112.
    [0055] [0055] Pictograms 106 providing instructions for use may be provided as before on the reverse side or, as illustrated, may be provided on the obverse side of the second member 112.
    [0056] [0056] In use a user first chooses which modified drink he wishes to distribute by rotating the second member 111 to display the correct barcode 119 in window 112. The coded insert 101 is then inserted into the infusion head 51 with the appropriate cartridge and infused as described above in the previous embodiments.
    [0057] [0057] The coded insert 101 may alternatively have a sandwich structure in which the second member 111 is rotatably mounted between the first two members 110.
