Abstract (en)

[origin: US2014342059A1] A capsule is provided for use in a machine for preparing product from capsules. The capsule includes a body that defines an interior space with an opening at one location and an aperture at another location. A soluble closure is disposed on an interior surface of the body to cover the aperture. Ingredients are disposed within the interior space for preparing a desired product. A cover is disposed over the opening and a removable cover is disposed over the aperture. The removable cover is removed from capsule prior to insertion of capsule into the machine. The soluble closure is adapted to dissolve upon exposure to fluid from the capsule machine in order to allow prepared product to exit capsule through aperture. In another embodiment, a delivery system such as a soluble pouch or a film containing ingredients is disposed in the capsule.
