In a conventional plastic drip coffeemaker, an improvement is provided for mounting the hot water generator comprising a single plastic molded box-shaped housing having an access opening only at one end and the other end and side walls being integrally formed. Spaced ribs are molded on and extend along a side wall towards the opening and terminate inside of the opening. A molded-in boss for securement is provided on the opposite side wall and a U-shaped channel member crosses the access opening with its legs directed inwardly of the housing to straddle in fixed abutment against the ribs at one edge and fixed to the boss at the opposite edge. The hot water generator is secured to the channel inside the opening so that the generator is fixed against all lateral movement by the straddling channel and against movement into the opening by abutment against the ribs. A cover is provided with biasing structure so that, as the cover is latched in position it levers the channel against the ribs to preclude outward movement and lock the hot water generator against movement in all directions.
