Tech/Engineering - Automation & Robotics / Kaffeevollautomaten | | German term or phrase: Kaffeekuchen | Tresterbehälter, 15-20 Kaffeekuchen, kann ohne Öffnen der Tür entnommen werden
It is obvious what is meant, but does anyone have a bright idea how to name this baby? |
| | Clarification request(s) and responseChristine Lam (asker): 7:56pm Mar 17, 2005: SwissTell: I don´t think that actual cakes are meant here. It is the left over coffee grounds after the water has gone through the machine and they look like cakes because of the shape of the filter (that is how I understand it anyway, but maybe someone can convince me otherwise)

| | Coffee grounds (15-20 portions) | Explanation:
Using my 4-language instruction manual for my Jura (Swiss) coffee machine as a guide, they use "coffee grounds" in English and "Kaffeesatz" in German (marc in French, by the way). Tresterbehälter is the German for "grounds container" (also used by Jura)so I am reasonably convinced that Kaffeekuchen isn't in this text a nice piece of cake. |
