HOME CAFE®COFFEEMAKER
FEATURES AND BENEFITS

m Pressure Brewing Technology – The Home Café®coffeemaker is different

from your regular coffeemaker because it uses pre-measured sealed coffee pods
and unique pressure brewing found in leading coffeehouses. Pressure brewing
creates a perfectly balanced cup of coffee by forcing a precise amount of water
through the coffee pod consistently producing a high quality single serving
of coffee in about a minute.

m Variety of Blends, Flavors and Roasts – Personalize your brewing

experience by using a variety of Folgers®and Millstone®coffee pods and
Lipton®tea pods.

m Specialty Pods Compatible – Your coffeemaker comes with a Specialty Pod

Holder for use with Lattes, Cappuccinos, etc. Make sure to keep it in a safe place
for future use. Go to www.home-cafe.com for more information or call
1-800-HOME CAFE.

m Mug/Cup Size Flexibility – Choose to brew 7 oz., 9 oz. and

14 oz. in your favorite cup, mug or travel

mug.

m Adjustable Brew Strength – Personalize your coffee experience by using

one or two pods to achieve a stronger beverage.

m Adjustable Dispensing Spout – Adjust the height of the Dispensing Spout

and avoid splashing when using shorter cups or mugs i.e.: Specialty or

7 oz. or 9 oz. mug size.

m Removable Rotating Water Reservoir – Allows you to brew multiple

cups of coffee without refilling the reservoir. Removable for easy cleaning.
Rotates to easily fit your counter space.

m Removable Pod Holders – For easy use and cleaning.
m On/Off Brew Indicator Lights – Lets you know which option you’ve

selected when brewing coffee.

m Removable Drip Tray & Grid – To fit a taller travel mug and for easy use

and cleaning.

m Auto–Off – Coffeemaker automatically turns off after each brew.

USING HOME CAFɮPODS

Your Home Café®coffeemaker has been designed to use versatile, pre-packed,
Folgers®and Millstone®pods to brew coffee and Lipton®tea pods to brew premium
tea. Pods contain pre-measured amounts of coffee grounds or hand picked teas
packed in filter paper, with the added convenience of no-fuss handling and mess­free disposal.

To prepare your favorite coffee or when using tea pods, place the pod or pods
inside the appropriate pod holder and follow the “Using your Home Café

®

Coffeemaker” instructions. For best results, make sure to position the pod with
the flat side up.

Coffee Pods Measurement Chart

Visit your favorite retail store to find Folgers,

®

Millstone®and Lipton®pods or go to
www.home-cafe.com.

NOTE:

• Do not use same pod twice. The best coffee
flavors are extracted the first time water
passes through the pod.

• Do not use torn, ripped or broken pods.

• Do not use another manufacturer’s pod,
espresso pods, tea bags or regular ground
coffee. Your Home Café®coffeemaker is
specially designed to work with Home Café

®

pods. Using other brands of coffee pods or using loose grounds with a filter may
clog or damage your Home Café®unit, or not produce the desired quality of coffee.

For Specialty Pods see “Using Your Home Café®Coffeemaker with Specialty Pods” section.
