Filtertülle filter spout

Explanation:
Close to an outright guess :-)

based on Google search for "filtertülle", which provided the following example from bi-lingual diagram of a cappuccino machine:

German...
11. Filtertülle

English...
11. Filter spout

Tülle can be translated, depending on the context as
1. Grommet
2. Nozzle
3. Port
4. Mold

Food for thought:

The Leo Dictionary provides the following definitions:
beak die Tülle
grommet [tech.] die Tülle
muzzle die Tülle - Geschirr
nozzle die Tülle - z. B. einer Kaffeekanne
socket die Tülle
spout, also [tech.] die Tülle
tulles pl. die Tülle
protective sleeve [tech.] die Tülle
lead-pipe nozzle [tech.] die Bleirohr-Tülle
steel tube nozzle [tech.] die Stahlrohr-Tülle
