Abstract
An espresso brewing head unit comprises a potshaped coffee receptacle in which a filter plate with coffee discharge openings is provided. A lateral wall of the coffee receptacle and the filter plate define the filling volume of the coffee receptacle so that portioning is substantially predetermined. For varying the filling volume, the filter plate is additionally arranged such that it is displaceable relative to the lateral wall of the coffee receptacle.
