Abstract
Control device (1) for an electrical household appliance for the preparation of infusion beverages, having a housing (2) enclosing a reservoir (3) for cold water, a heating plate (4) supported an infusion collector (5), a water heater (6) connected thermally to the plate (4) and having a conduit (6') connected to the cold water reservoir (3) and a rising conduit (6') connected to a water pipe (7) of an infusion filter (8) disposed above the infusion collector (5). An electrical heating resistance (9) for the water heater (6) is connected to an electrical supply circuit (10) switchingly controlled by the device. The device supplies the electrical resistance (9) in a first phase intermittently by current pulses of predetermined duration, separated by pause times also of predetermined duration, and in a second phase supplies the electrical resistance (9) with a direct current.
