A system for simultaneously brewing and dispensing multiple beverages from a single substantially unitary structure includes a rigid, thermally conductive substantially cylindrically dispensing container having internally fluid discreet compartments each, in horizontal cross-section, defining a polar segment of the cross-section of the container, each of the compartments including pouring spouts at a corresponding mouth of the container, and handles each corresponding to a spout of the structure. The system also includes a circular planar cover selectably securable and rotatable upon or within the mouth of the container. The cover includes a polar opening sufficient in area and geometry to permit flow of a beverage from a selected on of the compartments when a corresponding handle is engaged.

I claim: 1. A system for simultaneously brewing and dispensing multiple beverages from a single unitary structure, the system comprising: (a) a rigid, thermally conductive substantially cylindrical dispensing container having a plurality of internal mutually fluid discrete compartments, each, in horizontal cross-section, defining a polar segment of said cross-section of said container, a plurality of pouring spouts at a mouth of said container, each located within one of said compartments, and a plurality of handles extending from an external wall of said container, each of said handles positioned opposing, and in radial alignment with, one of said pouring spouts, respectively; and (b) a substantially circular planar cover selectably securable to and rotatable within said mouth of said container, said cover including a polar opening sufficient in area to permit flow of a beverage from a selected one of said compartments when said polar opening is positioned above said selected compartment, whereby a beverage of interest within said compartment may thereby be poured by a user of the system, when said cover is rotated to have said polar opening positioned above said selected compartment, one of said handles is engaged, and said container is tipped in a direction of one of said pouring spouts in said selected compartment, opposing said one of said handles. 2. The system as recited in claim 1, further comprising: (c) a brewing structure including a fresh water reservoir, including means for heating water therein, and a siphon for delivery of heated water from said reservoir to a highest level of said brewing structure; (d) a brewing basket having a plurality of internal mutually fluid-tight partitions therein corresponding in number and axial position to each compartment of said plurality of compartments of said dispensing container; and (e) filtration means selectably attachable upon a mouth of said brewing basket, said means including an outlet of said siphon. 3. The system as recited in claim 2, in which said filtration means comprises: a structure having a conical section having water-flow directors thereon, said conical section proportioned for insertion upon separators that define said compartments within said basket. 4. The system as recited in claim 2, in which said filtration means comprises: a wafer-like cylindrical section proportioned for placement upon said mouth of said basket; and said outlets of said siphon including a plurality of discreet conduits, each directed to regions of said filtration means situated above respective compartments of said basket. 5. A system for brewing and dispensing multiple beverages from a single structure, the system comprising: (a) a rigid, thermally conductive substantially cylindrical housing having therein a container axially rotatable relative to said housing, said container having a plurality of internal mutually fluid discrete compartments, each, in horizontal cross-section, defining a polar segment of a cross-section of said container, said housing having a single pouring spout, and a single handle depending integrally outwardly from an external wall, of said housing, said handle in a vertical plane passing through a vertical center of said spout; (b) handles attached to said container, extending therefrom through circumferential channels of said housing to outside of said housing for rotation of said container relative to said housing; and (c) a substantially circular planar cover selectably securable to, and rotatable within, said mouth of said housing, said cover including an opening sufficient in area and geometry to permit flow of a beverage from a selected one of said compartments when said cover is rotated to have said opening positioned above said selected compartment; whereby a beverage of interest within said selected compartment may thereby be poured by a user of the system when said container is rotated using the handles attached to said container relative to said housing to align said selected compartment with said pouring spout of said housing, said cover is rotated to have said opening positioned above said selected compartment, and said housing is tipped in a direction of said pouring spout. 6. The system as recited in claim 5, further comprising: (d) a brewing structure including a fresh water reservoir, including means for heating water therein, and a siphon for delivery of heated water from said reservoir to a highest level of said brewing structure; (e) a brewing basket having a plurality of internal mutually fluid-tight compartments therein corresponding in number and axial position to each compartment of said plurality of compartments of said container in said housing; and (f) filtration means selectably attachable upon a mouth of said brewing basket, said means including an outlet of said siphon. 7. The system as recited in claim 6, in which said filtration means comprises: a structure having a conical section having water-flow directors thereon, said conical section proportioned for insertion upon separators that define said compartments within said basket. 8. The system as recited in claim 6, in which said filtration means comprises: a wafer-like cylindrical section proportioned for placement upon said mouth of said basket; and said outlets of said siphon including a plurality of discreet conduits, each directed to regions of said filtration means situated above respective compartments of said basket.
