A surface cleaning device includes a nozzle and an odor dial assembly. The nozzle includes a nozzle housing and a dirty air passageway. The odor dial assembly include a fragrance member and a dial body configured to be removably coupled to the nozzle housing. The dial body at least partially defines a fragrance cavity configured to at least partially receive the fragrance member and a fragrance passageway extending therethrough. The odor dial assembly is configured to transition between a plurality of user-selectable positions to adjust an amount of fragrance particles released by the fragrance member into the dirty air passageway.

Surface cleaning device with odor management

An automated beverage brewing apparatus is provided including a controller for identifying a volume of bloom water and a bloom time for preparing a brewed beverage. A user interface provides at least one input to the controller. The controller is configured to vary the volume of the bloom water based on a type of brewed beverage and a size of brewed beverage input via the user interface.

Automatic coffee maker and method of preparing a brewed beverage

A siphon for use in a brew basket includes a first portion formed from a first material and a second portion formed from a second material. The first portion has a first passageway and an outlet. The first passageway is fluidly coupled to said outlet. The second portion has a second passageway and is removably coupled to the first portion. The first passageway and said second passageway form a flow path extending from an interior of the brew basket to the outlet.

Included herein are methods and systems for brewing coffee. In one example, a method of brewing coffee includes delivering a predetermined amount of water from a reservoir to a heater, heating the predetermined amount of water with the heater to form heated water, delivering the predetermined amount of the heated water from the heater to a brew basket containing ground coffee, and soaking the ground coffee with the predetermined amount of the heated water for a predetermined period of time to enable the heated water delivered to the brew basket to presoak the ground coffee contained in brew basket prior delivering a remaining amount of water from the quantity of water to the brew basket to complete the brewing cycle.

Automatic coffee maker

A beverage brewing apparatus is provided including a reservoir, a brew basket configured to container a flavorant for preparing a brewed beverage, and a heating mechanism fluidly coupled to the reservoir and the brew basket. A flow meter is configured to measure a volume of fluid supplied from the reservoir to the brew bask. The flow meter is configured to calibrate dynamically in response to at least one operating parameter of the beverage brewing apparatus.
