How pour over coffee is different

Traditional coffee brewing often doesn’t

bring out the best avor of your coffee

beans. We often settle for the usual drip coffee maker for the sake of time and convenience.

The ancient art of pour over coffee brewing has recently gained popularity because the technique of slowly pouring water over

the ground beans extracts excellent avor.

But, we usually don’t have time to perform the ritual.

The KitchenAid

brings together the clean, complex avors

that are created with a traditional cup of pour over coffee with the ease and convenience of an automatic machine.

Instead of continuously ooding the brew

basket with water, the Pour Over Coffee

Brewer pulses the ow of water, precisely

controlling the extraction, allowing the grounds to “bloom.”

In addition, the Pour Over Coffee Brewer heats all of the water at once to the optimal brewing temperature instead of one drop at a time like conventional drip coffee makers.

You’ll notice the difference in the caramel

color and the complex layers of avor.

Precise water

ow control

This gear inside your Pour Over Coffee Brewer precisely

controls water ow, for ideal avor extraction.

English

Preparing the Coffee Brewer for use

Before rst use

Before using your Coffee Brewer for the first time, wash the brew basket and carafe in hot, soapy water, then rinse with clean water and dry.

Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.

NOTE: These parts can also be washed in the top rack of the dishwasher.

Plug the Coffee Brewer into a 3-prong

grounded outlet. If desired, wrap excess cord around the cord holder on the back of the Coffee Brewer.

Slide the water tank lid back, and fill

the water tank with fresh, filtered water to the desired cup level as indicated on the water tank view. Because of the design of this Coffee Brewer, it may take a moment for the water to enter the place in the tank where you can view the water level. Close the water tank lid.

NOTE: If the water in the tank has been sitting for awhile and you wish to start fresh, press the BREW button (without coffee in the brew basket). This will cycle through any stale water in the tank.

OPERATING THE COFFEE BREWERASSEMBLING THE COFFEE BREWER

Filling the brew basket

English

Place a #4 paper coffee filter in the

brew basket, and press the paper filter in to the sides of the brew basket.

NOTE: Pre-wetting the paper filter is not required.

Using the dosage recommendation (see

the “Coffee dosage guide” below), fill the paper filter with the desired amount of ground coffee. Then, close the brew basket door.

Coffee dosage guide

For best results, when lling the brew basket with coffee grounds, use coffee ground slightly ner than the typical medium grind. If you have a kitchen scale, you can use the chart below

to determine how much coffee to use for the number of cups you wish to brew.

NOTE: If using the KitchenAid Burr Grinder, use setting 6. The coffee scoop included with the Pour Over Coffee Brewer holds approximately 8 grams of ground coffee. Adjust dosage to taste.

OPERATING THE COFFEE BREWER

Brewing coffee

Press the BREW button. The Coffee

Brewer will heat all the water needed to brew at the beginning of the cycle. You will see the Heating indicator light up during this segment of the cycle. This process takes approximately 6 minutes for 8 cups of coffee.

NOTE: If you wish to cancel the Brew cycle at any time, press the BREW button.

When the cycle is complete, the Enjoy

indicator will light up and 3 beeps will sound. The Warming plate will then keep the coffee at optimum temperature for 1 hour after brewing. However, for best results, it is recommended that coffee is consumed within 30 minutes after brewing. To cancel the Warm cycle at any time, press the BREW button.

After all the water is heated, the Coffee

Brewer begins to alternately shower the grounds with water, allowing the coffee to steep. This happens in stages until the cycle is over; you will see the Pouring and Steeping indicators alternately light up during this segment of the cycle.

HELPFUL TIP: It is recommended to allow the brewing cycle to complete for the selected number of cups prior

to tasting to extract the maximum avor

from the pour over brewing method.

Cleaning the Coffee Brewer

Descaling the Coffee Brewer

Calcium deposits (scale) from water will build up in the Coffee Brewer over time and impair brewing efficiency and coffee quality. If you notice that it takes longer than usual to brew, or that the Coffee Brewer is making unusual noises, then it is time to descale. The Brew button will flash when the Coffee Brewer needs to be cleaned. Descaling should be done as soon as possible to preserve the performance and life of your Coffee Brewer.

NOTE: The Coffee Brewer can be descaled by using a packaged descaling agent, which can be found at various retail stores or online.

Follow the directions on the package for the recommended ratios of descaling agent and water to use.

The Coffee Brewer should be run through a complete Clean cycle using a full tank of the descaling solution.

NOTE: The Brew button is programmed

to ash, signaling that cleaning is needed

after every 100 brew cycles. If desired, the Clean cycle can be completed at regular intervals, without waiting for the Brew button to ash. Follow step 1, then press and hold the BREW button for 3 seconds to manually activate the cleaning cycle.

Before descaling, make sure the brew

basket contains no coffee or coffee filters, and fill the tank with fresh water to the 8 cup fill line.

English

When the Brew button begins to flash:

Press and hold the BREW button for 3 seconds. This will activate the clean cycle. The Coffee Brewer will empty the water tank, no matter how many Cups were selected from previous cycle settings. When the clean cycle is complete (approximately 9 minutes), the Brew button will stop blinking, and the Heating, Pouring, and Steeping indicator lights will turn off. The Coffee Brewer is ready to use again.

Wash the brew basket and carafe

in the top rack of the dishwasher, or wash by hand in hot, soapy water, then rinse with warm water. Dry all parts thoroughly before reassembling the Coffee Brewer.

TROUBLESHOOTING

1. If the display is not illuminated:

• Check to see whether the Coffee Brewer is plugged into a grounded 3-prong outlet. If it is, check the fuse or circuit breaker on the electrical circuit the Coffee Brewer is connected to and make sure the circuit is closed.

2. If only a portion of the water added to the Coffee Brewer actually brews:

• The Coffee Brewer requires immediate

descaling. Please refer to “Descaling the Coffee Brewer” in the “Care and cleaning” section.

3. If both the Brew button and Heating indicator are ashing:

• There is no water in the water tank.

Press the BREW button to cancel the error code and let the Coffee Brewer cool down for approximately 10 minutes. Fill the water tank to the desired

number of cups with fresh, ltered

water and continue with the brewing cycle as described in the “Brewing coffee” section.

4. If the problem cannot be corrected:

• See the “Warranty and service” section.

Do not return the Coffee Brewer to the retailer; retailers do not provide service.
