1. An apparatus for preparing coffee, comprising a holder arranged for receiving a pouch made of filter material and filled with a product to be extracted, the bolder comprising at least one outflow opening and one access opening for placing the pouch in the holder, the apparatus further comprising a cover for closing and releasing the access opening and clamping means for pressing the holder and the cover towards each other when the cover closes off the access opening of the holder, characterized in that the clamping means for pressing the cover and the holder towards each other, when the cover closes off the access opening of the holder, engage at least two mutually different engagement positions located on an external surface of the cover, the cover further comprising a connection located on the external surface of the cover, for the supply of water to the holder, the two mutually different engagement positions each not coinciding with the position on the external surface where the connection is located, and the cover being rotatably connected to the clamping means for rotation over a limited angle about an engagement rotation axis, which engagement rotation axis extends along the two mutually different engagement positions. 2. An apparatus according to claim 1, characterized in that the cover is movably connected to the clamping means, adjacent the two engagement positions.3. An apparatus according to claim 1 or2, characterized in that the connection is located approximately centrally of the at least two engagement positions.4. An apparatus according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the connection is located approximately in the center of the external surface of the cover. 5. An apparatus according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the external surface is of at least substantially circular design. 6. An apparatus according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the apparatus further comprises a housing to which the holder is detachably connected, the clamping means comprising a rotation element with a first and second opposite ends, the rotation element being connected adjacent its first end to the housing for rotation about a horizontally directed first rotation axis between a first and second rotational position for closing the access opening of the holder in the second rotational position and releasing the access opening in the first rotational position, the apparatus further comprising a closing arrangement for detachably connecting the rotation element to the housing adjacent the second end when the cover closes off the access opening in the second rotational position, the cover being connected to the rotation element such that in the second rotational position the rotation axis extends along a first side of the cover and the second end is located on a second side of the cover, located opposite the first side of the cover. 7. An apparatus according to claim 6, characterized in that a line through the at least two engagement positions is located approximately parallel to the first rotation axis.8. An apparatus according to claim 6 or7, characterized in that the first rotation axis is above a flat plane through the access opening of the holder.9. An apparatus according to claim 8, characterized in that an underside of the cover is located at least substantially below a plane defined by the first rotation axis and the second end when the cover closes off the holder in the second rotational position.10. An apparatus according to claim 9, characterized in that the first rotation axis is parallel to the plane through the opening.11. An apparatus according to claim 9 or10, characterized in that the plane defined by the first rotation axis and the second end and the plane through the opening include an acute angle when the cover closes off the holder in the second rotational position.12. An apparatus according to claim 9,10 or11, characterized in that the pla ne defined by the first rotation axis and the second end and the plane through the opening have an intersecting line located adjacent the second end when the cover closes off the holder in the second rotational position.13. An apparatus according to claim 12, characterized in that the second engagement rotation axis is connected to the rotation element, the engagement rotation axis being at least approximately parallel to the first rotation axis.14. An apparatus according to claim 13, characterized in that the apparatus further comprises spring means which exert such a force on the cover that an underside of the cover comes to lie approximately parallel to the plane defined by the first rotation axis and the second end by rotation of the rotation element about the second engagement rotation axis when the cover is lifted off the holder by rotation of the rotation element about the first rotation axis.15. An apparatus according to claim 14, characterized in that the spring means comprise a flexible hose which is connected to the cover for supplying hot water to the holder.16. An apparatus according to claim 5,6 or7, characterized in that the first rotation axis is located at least approximately in a flat plane through the access opening of the holder.17. An apparatus according to claim 16, characterized in that an underside of the cover is located at least substantially in a plane defined by the engagement rotation axis and the second end when the cover closes off the holder.18. An apparatus according to claim 17, characterized in that the first rotation axis is parallel to the plane through the access opening.19. An apparatus according to claim 17 or18, characterized in that the plane defined by the engagement rotation axis and the second end and the plane through the opening extend at least approximately parallel when the cover closes off the holder in the second rotational position.
