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.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim: 1.
Apparatus for providing a spray of heated liquid comprising: a tank; means for delivering liquid into said tank; means for heating liquid in said tank; duct means for conducting heated liquid from said tank to an outlet as an incident of delivery of liquid into said tank by said liquid delivering means; means defining a vented reservoir superjacent the tank; aspirator means responsive to the flow of said heated liquid for withdrawing liquid from said reservoir to provide an expansion space in said reservoir for receiving liquid subsequently expanded from said tank thereinto as a result of heating of the liquid delivered to said tank by said delivery means; and baffle means spaced adjacent said duct outlet for impingement of the conducted heated liquid thereagainst to cause delivery of the heated liquid therefrom in the form of a spray.
2.
The liquid spray apparatus of claim 1 wherein said reservoir means is spaced above said tank.
3.
The liquid spray apparatus of claim 1 wherein said reservoir means is spaced above said tank and connected thereto by a portion of said duct means.
4.
The liquid spray apparatus of claim 1 wherein said duct means extends through said reservoir.
5.
The liquid spray apparatus of claim 1 wherein said duct means includes a portion removably mounted to said reservoir means and extending through said reservoir.
6.
The liquid spray apparatus of claim 1 wherein said reservoir means is removably mounted to said tank.
7.
The liquid spray apparatus of claim 1 wherein said aspirator means is provided in a portion of said duct means.
8.
The liquid spray apparatus of claim 1 wherein said aspirator means is disposed in a lower portion of said reservoir.
9.
The liquid spray apparatus of claim 1 wherein the level of said duct outlet is above the level of the top of said tank.
10.
The liquid spray apparatus of claim 1 wherein said duct outlet opens downwardly and said baffle means is spaced below said outlet.
11.
The liquid spray apparatus of claim 1 wherein said apparatus further includes a beverage brewing receptacle positioned under said baffle means for receiving the sprayed heated liquid
