Abstract:
An installation (1) comprising a storage zone (5) for storing the container (40) of the beverage for preparation; a liquid flow circuit (2) provided with at least one feed inlet (3) for feeding a beverage for preparation extending in said storage zone (5) and being provided with a perforation member (7); cooling and/or heating means (8) arranged along the liquid flow circuit (2); a sensor (13) for measuring the circuit temperature of the liquid flow circuit (2); and means (14) for providing a setpoint temperature corresponding to the tasting temperature desired for the beverage.The installation (1) further comprises a sensor (6) for measuring the temperature of the container (40); a control unit (17) configured to control the cooling and/or heating means (8) as a function of the setpoint temperature, and of the measured temperatures; a closure member (18) for at least partially closing access from the storage zone (5) to the perforation member (7), the closure member (18) being mounted to move between a closed position at least as a function of the measured temperature of the circuit.
