The beverage brewing device, which is configured for use with a beverage brewer having an inlet probe for dispensing water and an outlet probe, includes a body defining a brew chamber configured to contain a dry beverage medium and at least one outlet probe receptacle extending upwardly from a bottom surface of the body. The outlet probe receptacle is sized and configured to receive an outlet probe of a beverage brewer. A lid is removably securable to the body and is engageable with the body to selectively enclose a top opening of the body. An inlet probe opening is defined in the lid for receiving an inlet probe of the beverage brewer. At least one filter is defined within in the body, wherein the filter is configured to retain a dry beverage medium within the brew chamber while allowing a brewed beverage to pass through the brew chamber.

1. A beverage brewing device for use with a single serve beverage brewer having a brewing holster, an inlet probe for dispensing water, the inlet probe moveable between a non-brewing position and a brewing position, and an outlet probe extending upwardly into the brewing holster for outletting a brewed beverage, the beverage brewing device comprising: a lid defining an inlet probe opening sized to receive the inlet probe;a cup comprising— a sidewall having a circular upper edge defining an upper opening, a lower edge defining a lower opening, and an inner sidewall surface extending between the circular upper edge and the lower edge;a bottom wall having a planar inner surface and planar outer surface opposite the planar inner surface, the bottom wall extending across the lower opening such that the planar inner surface intersects the inner sidewall surface, the bottom wall defining a receptacle opening extending inwardly into the bottom wall from an edge of the bottom wall;a receptacle secured to the bottom wall over the receptacle opening and extending upwardly from the bottom wall and lower edge toward the upper edge, the receptacle having a convex inner surface and a concave outer surface, the concave outer surface sized to receive the outlet probe when the cup is positioned within the brewing holster, the receptacle being a continuous layer of material that prevents fluid flow through the continuous layer of material;one or more mesh filters included in at least one of the sidewall and the bottom wall;wherein the convex inner surface, planar inner surface and inner sidewall surface define a volume for receiving brewing material, the volume being sealed except for the one or more mesh filters and the upper opening. 2. The beverage brewing device of claim 1, wherein the sidewall further defines a sidewall indentation extending upward from the lower edge partially toward the upper edge; wherein the receptacle opening comprises a bottom indentation defined by the bottom wall and extending inwardly from a perimeter of the bottom wall;wherein the receptacle is connected to the sidewall around the sidewall indentation and extends inwardly from the sidewall; andwherein the receptacle is connected to the bottom wall around the bottom indentation. 3. A beverage brewing device for use with a single serve beverage brewer having a brewing holster, an inlet probe for dispensing water, the inlet probe moveable between a non-brewing position and a brewing position, and an outlet probe extending upwardly into the brewing holster for outletting a brewed beverage, the beverage brewing device comprising: a lid defining an inlet probe opening sized to receive the inlet probe;a cup defining an upper opening at a top end sized to receive the lid and being circular, the cup comprising— a bottom wall having a planar inner surface and a planar outer surface opposite the planar inner surface, the bottom wall defining a lower opening extending inwardly toward a center of the bottom wall, the planar inner surface and planar outer surface extending around a concave perimeter of the lower opening;a sidewall encircling the bottom wall and the upper opening, the sidewall connected to the bottom wall and extending vertically between the bottom wall and the upper opening, the sidewall including an inner sidewall surface conforming to a truncated cone such that the planar inner surface and inner sidewall surface define a frusto-conical shape;a receptacle wall secured to the bottom wall around the concave perimeter of the lower opening and extending upwardly from the planar inner surface into the frusto-conical shape and extending vertically from the planar inner surface partially toward the upper opening, the lower opening and receptacle wall being sized and positioned to receive the outlet probe when the cup is positioned in the brewing holster, the receptacle wall being a continuous layer of material such that fluid cannot flow through the receptacle wall; andone or more mesh filters included in at least one of the sidewall and the bottom wall;wherein the sidewall, bottom wall, and receptacle wall define an interior volume for receiving brewing material that is sealed except for the upper opening and the one or more mesh filters. 4. The beverage brewing device of claim 3, wherein the sidewall further defines a sidewall indentation extending from the bottom wall partially toward the upper opening, the receptacle wall connecting to the sidewall around a concave perimeter of the sidewall indentation, the receptacle defining a concave outer surface extending from the concave perimeter of the sidewall indentation to the concave perimeter of the lower opening, the concave outer surface being sized and positioned to receive the outlet probe when the cup is positioned in the brewing holster. 5. The beverage brewing device of claim 4, wherein the lower opening is a first lower opening, the receptacle wall is a first receptacle wall, the beverage brewing device further comprising a second lower opening and a second receptacle wall having a mirrored configuration with respect to the first lower opening and the first receptacle wall.
