See full text

A beverage maker includes a continuous flow electric heater assembly of tubular construction adapted to be connected to a source of fresh water and is arranged for guiding fresh water therethrough for heating the fresh water to brewing temperatures, and a filtering vessel and pipe arrangement to introduce heated fresh water from the heater assembly to the filtering vessel. The heater assembly comprises at least two tubular continuous flow electric heaters each being bent into a U-shaped configuration. The heaters are arranged in a generally horizontally juxtaposed mutually nested relationship and each has a metal heater tube containing an electric heating element, a metal water pipe extending adjacent the metal heater tube parallel therewith and a heat conducting flat web connecting the heater tube with the water pipe for transferring heat from the heater tube to the water pipe. There is further provided a tubular connector coupling the water pipes of the heater assemblies to one another.
