Patent ID: 8074561

Claim:
A press cleaning device adapted to remove coffee grinds deposited within a coffee press, the device comprising: a cylindrical stem having a first end and a second end; a handle coupled to the first end of the stem, wherein the handle is configured to enable a rotation of the stem when the stem is vertically disposed within the coffee press; and a circular disk-shaped declined-plane ramp coupled at a central axis of the ramp to the second end of the stem, wherein the ramp, with an upper ending edge and a lower leading edge produced by a radial cut running diametrically from an outer circumference of the ramp toward a center position, threads or revolves around the central axis of the stem and is coupled to the second end of the stem, wherein the leading edge is configured to couple to the second end of the stem at a lower position than the ending edge and thus producing between the leading edge and the ending edge the circular disk-shaped declined-plane ramp with an ascending inclined plane to the upper ending edge, whereby the rotation of the stem causes the leading edge to slice through the coffee grinds which traverse the ramp in an upward motion and stack for subsequent removal from the coffee press.
