Beverage brewer

A beverage brewer wherein hot liquid is delivered from a heating tank to a brewing cartridge as a result of introduction of additional liquid into the heating tank from a suitable source. An aspirator is provided in combination with a spray device for preventing dripping of hot liquid from the apparatus as a result of the expansion of the newly introduced liquid resulting from the heating thereof in the heating tank. The aspirator is removably associated with a reservoir structure and the reservoir structure is removably carried on the removable cover of the heating tank. A transfer duct between the reservoir structure and spray device is removably connected to the aspirator and is displaceable from a position overlying the heating tank to laterally thereof for facilitated removal of portions of the apparatus upwardly from the tank.
