Abstract
Disclosed are improvements in a coffee-making machine of the type having an elevated cool or cold water basin from which cool or cold water drains into a fill tube extending down to adjacent the bottom of a hot water reservoir, the fill tube being suspended from the underside of the cover or lid on the reservoir. The cool or cold water displaces hot water to a spray head disposed over a brewing funnel. One specific improvement pertains to the means by which the cold water basin is attached to the reservoir lid. Another specific improvement pertains to the means by which the upper end of the fill tube is suspended from the reservoir lid. The combination of these improvements provides a convenient, secure and economical means of assembling these related components of the coffee-making machine.
