COFFEEMAKER FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Your new Mr. Coffee® coffeemaker has the following features:

• PRESOAK FEATURE – This feature presoaks your coffee with water to

release more ﬂavor. The effect is similar to the pour-over artisan coffee-making process “blooming,” which fully extracts your grounds to create a fuller, richer taste.

• EASY FRONT ACCESS – The design of this coffeemaker makes it easy to

ﬁll the water reservoir and add coffee grounds to the ﬁlter basket from the front of the coffeemaker saving you time when you need it most.

• FRONT LOADING BREW BASKET DOOR – Swings open and close

to easily add your coffee grounds.

• GRAB-A-CUP AUTO-PAUSE – When you need a cup before brewing

is ﬁnished, carefully remove the carafe and the grab-a-cup auto-pause feature will automatically activate, temporarily stopping the ﬂow of coffee into the carafe.

• REMOVABLE FILTER BASKET – The removable ﬁlter basket has more

capacity to hold coffee grounds compared to our other coffeemakers, so you can add more coffee for a bolder cup.

• WATER WINDOW – No Overﬂow! See exact water level as you ﬁll.

• WARMING PLATE – This warming plate was designed with a lower wattage

heater to allow you to keep your coffee hot after brewing. It’s also non-stick, so your carafe slides smoothly on and off the warming plate.

• STRONG/1-4 CUP BUTTON – Select this feaure for a bolder, more full-

bodied ﬂavor coffee and use when brewing 1-4 cups for the best extraction of ﬂavor from a smaller amount of coffee.

• WATER FILTRATION (IF INCLUDED) – Great tasting coffee begins

with great water. We suggest using ﬁltered water along with the included Mr. Coffee® carbon-based water ﬁltration system. During the brewing process the ﬁltration system helps remove up to 97% of chlorine from the water and improves the taste of your coffee.

Preparing For Use

Selecting and Measuring Ground Coffee:

For best results, use medium ground coffee and the Coffee Scoop that is included with your coffeemaker for accurate measurements. Coffee experts agree that one factor to create the perfect cup is using more coffee. This coffeemakers Removable Filter Basket holds more capacity for coffee grounds compared to our other coffeemakers. Use the suggested coffee measurements as a guide for creating your perfect cup.

Suggested Coffee Measurement Chart:

To Brew Ground Coffee

1 level scoop = 1 tablespoon

= 5 gr./0.17 oz./15 ml

1 cup = 5 ﬂ. oz. /148 ml

of brewed coffee

Use more or less coffee to suit

your taste *(max 60 grams of ground coffee)

Caution: The maximum capacity for ground coffee is 12 rounded tablespoons/scoops. Exceeding this amount or

using fine coffee may cause overflow.

12 Cups 12 scoops

10 Cups 10 scoops

8 Cups 8 scoops

6 Cups 6 scoops

4 Cups 4 scoops

BREWING COFFEE NOW

There are two convenient ways to add water to your Mr. Coffee® coffeemaker:

Figure 9

Lift up the front water

reservoir lid and pour in cold, fresh ﬁltered water until the water window ﬁlls to the desired capacity. (Figure 9)

Note: To unfa sten the Removable S plash Guard, lif t from the ﬁnger hole.

TIP: This is convenient if the back of your

coffeemaker is

underneath a cabinet

or other obstruction.

Note:

For easy and accurate ﬁlling, the water markings on the glass Carafe and on the water window show the amount of water needed to make the corresponding desired number of cups.

• Do not ﬁll past the “12 cup MAX line” on the water window or water will ﬂow out of the overﬁll hole in the back of the coffeemaker. (Figure 11)

• The amount of coffee brewed will always be slightly less than the amount of water poured in the water reservoir. This is due to absorption of water by the coffee grounds.

• Make sure the Carafe is securely placed on the warming plate or the water and the grounds will overﬂow from the Removable Filter Basket.

CAUTION:To reduce the risk of personal injury or damaging the carafe, do not add cold water to the carafe if it is hot. Allow it to cool before using.

Figure 11

Figure 12

Open the Front

Loading Brew Basket door. (Figure 12)

Using the Water Filtration System

Congratulations! You are the owner of a MR.COFFEETM water ﬁltration system. This carbonbased water ﬁlter improves the taste of your coffee by removing up to 97% of the chlorine from the water you use to brew your coffee. Before using, look for the Mr. CoffeeTM Water Filtration Friendly symbol on the bottom of your ﬁlter basket. If you do not see this symbol, please call 1-800-672-6333. If you see the symbol, follow these steps to use your ﬁlter:

Frame

Filter

Disk

Red Indicator

Align the red indicator

on the frame to the letter that corresponds with the month that you are using the disk for the ﬁrst time. This serves to remind you to change the disk every month (approx. 30 brewing cycles).

When you are done

brewing your coffee, rinse the water ﬁlter with fresh water. Do not put your water ﬁlter in the dishwasher.

To replace the

water ﬁlter disks: slide the used disk from your water ﬁltration system. To insert the new disk, slide disk into the frame.

Strong/1-4 Cup Button

Select the Strong/1-4 Cup button to give any cup size a bolder taste. It is ideal for brewing 1-4 cups because it slows down the water ﬂow to extract the water evenly over a smaller amount of coffee, which enhances strength and ﬂavor for smaller batches. The result is bolder, more full-bodied cup of coffee. To activate, press the Strong/1-4 Cup button.

Note:This feature must be activated before you press Select/Off button to activate Brew Now. You cannot turn on/off this feature once brewing has started.

The coffeemaker will remain in Strong/1-4 Cup mode until you change it back to regular strength by pressing the Strong/1-4 Cup button again, or until you unplug the coffeemaker.

Presoak Feature

This feature presoaks your coffee with water to release more ﬂavor. The effect is similar to the pour-over artisan coffee-making process “blooming”, which fully extracts your grounds to create a fuller, richer taste.

The Fresh Brew™ Timer Feature

The Fresh Brew™ Timer tracks the freshness of coffee since the last brew. The timer automatically activates at the start of the brewing cycle. Press the Fresh Brew™ Timer button once and the clock will change to display the amount of time that has passed since brewing started. Push again to display current time. (Figure 22)

Note: The Brew Now indicator light must

be lit for the Fresh Brew™ Timer feature to operate. The clock time and the Delay Brew time will not be displayed when the fresh brew time is displayed.

Figure 22

Note: This coffeemaker uses Water

Filtration Grey Frame part number 189274.

Water Filtration Disk Replacement:

Your water ﬁltration disk will need to be replaced once a month (approx. 30 brew cycles). If the machine will not be in use for an extended period of time, rinse the water ﬁlter with running water and clean the coffeemaker before use.

Replacement water ﬁltraton frames part number:189274 and disks can be purchased online at www.mrcoffee.com or by calling 1-800-MRCOFFEE(1-800-672-6333) in the U.S. or 1-800-667-8623 in Canada.
