Kit for the preparation of a beverage in a centrifugal brewing device comprising a capsule by feeding liquid in the capsule and rotating the capsule along a central axis to produce centrifugal forces on the liquid traversing the capsule thereby forcing the beverage out of the capsule by such centrifugal forces, wherein the capsule comprises containment walls forming a main cavity of central axis containing beverage ingredients; wherein said kit further comprising an insert which is separate from the capsule and comprising a ring-shaped portion intended to form a valve engaging portion engaging against a valve means of the centrifugal brewing device.

An optically readable code support to be associated with or be part of a capsule intended for delivering a beverage in a beverage producing device, the support including at least one sequence of symbols represented on the support so that each symbol is sequentially readable by a reading arrangement of an external reading device while the capsule is driven in rotation along an axis of rotation. The symbols are essentially formed of a succession of light reflective surface portions and light absorbing surface portions. The light absorbing surface portions provide a lower light-reflective intensity than the light-reflective surface portions, and the code support includes at least one base layer extending continuously at least along the sequence of symbols. The light-absorbing surface portions are roughened surface portions having a higher rugosity (Rz) than the light-reflective surface portions.
