Abstract:
A multicompartment capsule for use with a beverage forming apparatus includes a base and a sidewall extending upwardly from the base. The sidewall includes a rim extending outwardly from an upper end thereof. The rim surrounds an opening of the multicompartment capsule wherein an upper surface of the outwardly extending rim is sealed to a lower surface of a lid. At least one partition extends through an interior of the multicompartment capsule so as to form a first sealed compartment that is fluidly isolated from a second sealed compartment. The first sealed compartment includes a first beverage formulation and the second sealed compartment includes a second beverage formulation. The first beverage formulation is reactive with the second beverage formulation and the partition separates the first beverage formulation from the second beverage formulation to extend the shelf life of the multicompartment capsule.

Claim (Index 10):
A method of making a multi-compartment capsule for use with a beverage forming apparatus, the method comprising:\n providing a sheet of thermoformable material to a thermo-forming apparatus; thermoforming the sheet of thermoformable material so as to form at least one group of compartments wherein each group of compartments includes at least a first compartment having a base and an upwardly extending sidewall and a second compartment having a base and a downwardly extending sidewall; cutting the thermoformed sheet so as to separate a single group of compartments wherein the cutting forms a first compartment rim that extends outwardly from an upper end of the sidewall of the first compartment and a second compartment rim that extends outwardly from a lower end of the sidewall of the second compartment; filling an interior of a first compartment with a predetermined quantity of a first beverage formulation; folding the second compartment at a foldable portion between the first and second compartments so as to locate the base and a portion of the sidewall of the second compartment in an interior of the first compartment; filling the interior of the second compartment with a predetermined quantity of a second beverage formulation; and sealing the first and second compartments so as to fluidly isolate the first compartment from the second compartment to make a multi-compartment capsule.
