A capsule for preparation of a beverage can include a container and a beverage ingredient contained therein. The container can include at least one support having a section on which a plurality of sequences of symbols is represented; each symbol is sequentially readable, by a reading arrangement of an external device, while the capsule is rotated along an axis of rotation. Each sequence can code a set of information related to the capsule, and at least one of the sequences can include symbols defining a preamble sequence that allows determination of a position of the symbols in the associated sequence coding the set of information related to the capsule. The container can include a cup-shaped body having a flange-like rim and a lid connected to the body, the support can be on a bottom of the rim, and the bottom of the rim can be opposed to the lid.

Support and capsule for preparing a beverage by centrifugation, system and method for preparing a beverage by centrifugation

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.

Kit for the preparation of a beverage in a centrifugal brewing device

A capsule for the preparation of a beverage in a beverage preparation device having a flange partially made of paper and partially made of polymer so as to improve the inside tightness of the capsule, such as to prevent air enters inside the capsule via folds and creases, is disclosed. Methods of producing and using the capsule are also disclosed.

Capsule for preparing a beverage such as coffee and the like

A container for producing a beverage capsule containing a beverage ingredient has a formed laminated structure including a cup portion with a depth-to-width ratio of at least 0.3 and a peripheral flange. The laminated structure contains an aluminium foil as a middle layer and also contains a sealing layer on the inner side of the aluminium foil. The laminated structure also includes at least one outer polymer film laminated on the outer side of the aluminium foil using a laminating adhesive layer, and the outer polymer film is printed at its inner surface and is made of semi-crystalline polymer.

Container for producing a beverage capsule and capsule thereof

Capsule for the preparation of a beverage comprising a container and a beverage ingredient contained therein, wherein the container comprises a code adapted for being identified or read by external reading means, wherein the code is arranged on the container to be read while the capsule is rotated around an axis of rotation traversing the capsule.

A capsule is designed for insertion in a centrifugal beverage production device for preparing a beverage from a substance contained in the capsule by introducing liquid in the capsule and passing the liquid through the substance using centrifugal forces. The capsule includes a body having a bottom end and an open end spaced apart in the axial direction, an upper wall for covering the body at the open end along a direction transverse to the axial direction, and an enclosure between the body and the upper wall containing a predetermined amount of beverage substance. The capsule further includes an annular pressure-setting ring configured for adjusting the backpressure in the beverage production device. The pressure-setting ring provides an improved coffee in-cup quality. A set of capsules can have pressure-setting rings of different dimensions for setting different backpressure when engaged in a centrifuging beverage production device.
