In particular, since the tubular containers 113, 114 are both containers with bilateral openings, they are also enclosed by the membranes (inlet and outlet assemblies) described in the previous embodiments, in which the material for preparing the particular beverage is filled according to the design. When water is injected from one side of the superposed containing device formed by hermetically combining the tubular containers 113 and 114, the two tubular containers 113 and 114 can still flow, materials in different containing spaces are brewed together, and finally the materials can be mixed with the beverage flushed out from the first tubular container 111, so that the purpose of automatically preparing the beverage with a specific taste is achieved.

The support mechanism 131 allows the tubular container 60 to be properly connected to the components of the brewing system 130, so that the tubular container 60 can be placed in a containing space isolated from the outside temperature and air.
The tubular container 60 described in this embodiment is inserted with one end (e.g., the inlet assembly 61) facing the interior of the brewing system 130, and is fixed to the supporting mechanism 131, and then sealed and fixed by a cover 133. The schematic view shows that the tubular container 60 can be placed horizontally on a carrying mechanism 131 in the brewing system 130 and pierced with a piercing structure 139 on one side into the inlet assembly 61 for injecting liquid (water, special solution) to brew concentrate or concentrate powder therein, and finally the beverage is output from the outlet assembly 62.
The brewing system 130 may be provided with a water supply 134, wherein water is primarily fed through a water pump 135 driven to a heater 137, which may output temperature controlled water, which is then injected through a piercing structure into the tubular container 60 to brew the concentrated material 603 therein. After the design of the control parameters such as time, liquid flow rate and temperature, the beverage can be brewed and output through the outlet assembly 62 and can flow into the cup through the specific diversion mechanism 132.
Fig. 14 shows the brewing system 130 of the beverage brewing apparatus consistent with fig. 13, in this case, the tubular container 140 is inserted into the brewing system 130 and includes a first tubular container 141 and a second tubular container 142 that are hermetically connected, the two tubular containers 141, 142 are respectively short in length and are combined to be compatible with the beverage brewing apparatus, the first tubular container 141 and the second tubular container 142 respectively contain different concentrated materials or materials (143, 144) for specific brewing, and the whole length of the first tubular container 141 and the second tubular container 142 still need to be able to be inserted into the carrying mechanism 131 of the brewing system 130. The combined tube 140 has one end facing the inside of the brewing device, and can still be penetrated by the piercing structure 139 and injected with temperature-controlled water (or a specific solution), and the water can still pass through the respective outlet assembly and inlet assembly between the two tubes 141, 142, and then can be brewed under certain time and pressure conditions. It should be noted that when two or more tubular containers are connected and then placed into the brewing device, the tubular containers designed with two shorter tube bodies should have structures capable of being hermetically connected, such as a snap structure, an airtight structure, and a structure in which a collar is connected, so as to avoid the problem of liquid leakage or material overflow under a certain pressure.
Fig. 15 shows that the tube body of one tube container is provided with an identification pattern, such as a QR code, which is one of the ways to identify the contents in each tube container and the brewing method. For example, the user can scan the QR code on the tubular container to obtain information about the content and brewing manner (which can be directed to a specific webpage or a page in an application) by using the QR code scanning function of the mobile device in cooperation with a corresponding Application (APP) or webpage content.
Furthermore, a reader for reading such identification patterns may be provided in the brewing device, wherein when a tubular container is loaded into the brewing device, the reader reads out the brewing instructions recorded in the QR code to form instructions for the controller of the brewing device (brewing system) to control the circuitry therein to start the brewing process. For example, the controller may control the heater (or refrigerator) to deliver a solution at a particular temperature, control the mechanism carrying the tubular container to maintain the concentrate at a temperature and pressure for a period of time, and deliver the brewed beverage based on the read temperature, time, and pressure commands.
Fig. 16 shows another example of a one-dimensional bar code as an identification bar code, and does not exclude a technique that can use a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) or the like to wirelessly transmit an identifier of a tubular container.
