Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . An infusion system for processing a brewing material, the system comprising:
a pouch containing a brewing material; a packet releasably housing the pouch, the pouch having a first side and a second side; an attachment member coupled with the pouch; and a tag coupled with the attachment member, wherein the first side of the packet is sealed with the second side of the packet via a seal line to provide a sealed interior chamber, wherein an edge of the tag extends into the seal line, and wherein the tag does not extend beyond a peripheral exterior boundary of the packet.
2 . The infusion system of claim 1 , wherein the packet comprises a detachable portion, and the tag is coupled with the packet via the detachable portion.
3 . A method of using an infusion system, the method comprising:
opening a packet of the infusion system along a first tear line to create a first tear opening; removing a pouch from inside of the packet through the first tear opening; placing the pouch into an infusion medium; tearing a tab from the packet along a second tear line, wherein the tab is coupled with a tag via a seal line, and wherein the tag is coupled with the pouch via an attachment member and does not extend beyond a peripheral exterior boundary of the packet; and pulling the tab to return the pouch inside of the packet.
4 . A method of constructing an infusion system, the method comprising:
coupling a first section of an attachment member with a pouch; coupling a second section of the attachment member with a tag; placing the pouch and the attachment member between a first side of a packet and a second side of the packet; and sealing the packet via a seal line, such that the pouch and the attachment member are contained within a sealed interior chamber of the packet, and such that the tag extends into the seal line and does not extend beyond a peripheral exterior boundary of the packet.
5 . An infusion system for processing a brewing material, the system comprising:
a pouch containing a brewing material; a packet releasably housing the pouch, the pouch having a first side and a second side; and an attachment member coupled with the pouch; wherein the first side of the packet is sealed with the second side of the packet via a seal line to provide a sealed interior chamber, and a flap section that is exterior to the sealed interior chamber, wherein the packet comprises a first packet insertion point for receiving the attachment member, and wherein the attachment member has an attachment member extension that is disposed within the flap section, that does not extend beyond a peripheral exterior boundary of the packet, and that resides exterior to the sealed interior chamber.Cited by (0)
