The invention includes a brewing apparatus which makes coffee, tea or the like by the drip method within a microwave oven. The brewing apparatus includes a reservoir for retaining a quantity of water for heating which is positioned on a carafe for receiving a quantity of brewed coffee, tea or the like therein. A basket supported on the reservoir retains coffee grounds, tea leave or the like while permitting brewed material to pass therethrough. A pump tube is attached to the reservoir and extends into the cavity formed thereby to a position below the water line. The reservoir is formed such that the application of microwave energy heats the water within the cavity, causing a pressure increase. The pressure forces liquid through the inlet of the pump tube. The pump tube direct the heated water through the outlet onto the coffee grounds, tea leaves or the like within the basket. The brewed material then passes from the basket into the carafe. The reservoir may be removed from the top surface of the carafe and the coffee, tea or the like served therefrom.
