The present disclosure relates to a personal care device having a conditioning layer comprising a porous matrix comprising pores and having a hydrophobic conditioning agent fluid dispersed in the pores so that the conditioning agent can migrate to an exposed surface of the conditioning layer and then may be transferred to hair or skin surfaces. The conditioning layer may be prepared by preparing an immiscible conditioning composition comprising a hydrophilic material that is capable of being cured, and a hydrophobic conditioning agent. The immiscible composition is cured to form a conditioning layer that is a porous matrix formed from the hydrophilic material, the porous matrix having the hydrophobic conditioning agent fluid dispersed in the pores thereof.

Apparatus and methods are provided for brewing a beverage from precursor particulates. The apparatus comprises a liquid delivery system for delivering liquid into a brewing basket. The liquid delivery system comprises a showerhead disposed above at least a portion of the brewing basket. The showerhead has a plurality of outlet openings through which liquid flows outward from the showerhead into the brew basket. At least two of the outlet openings are oriented to direct the flow of liquid out of the showerhead at least in part transversely of the brew basket.

Apparatus and method for brewing beverages

In a beverage brewing apparatus and method for brewing a beverage from a ground ingredient, a filter is configured for containing the ground ingredient. A distribution system is coupled in fluid communication with a source of liquid. A showerhead is disposed above the filter and is coupled in fluid communication with the distribution system for receiving liquid from the source of liquid. The showerhead is rotatable about a rotation axis thereof and has an exit nozzle through which liquid delivered to the showerhead by the distribution system exits the showerhead for delivery to the filter. The exit nozzle is located other than at the rotation axis of the showerhead such that liquid is channeled into the filter in a generally circular pattern upon rotation of the showerhead.

In a portable container system for heating a beverage generally, the system includes a container for containing a beverage to be heated. The container generally has a bottom and a side wall together defining an internal reservoir containing the beverage to be heated. A base of the system is operable to heat the container at the bottom thereof. The base is constructed of multiple layers generally including at least a top barrier layer, an electrically non-conductive bottom barrier layer and a thin film heating element intermediate the top barrier layer and the bottom barrier layer.
