MACHINE PROGRAMMING AND CALIBRATION

MACHINES EQUIPPED WITH A FLOWMETER- Please run your Fresh Cup pod brewer a

few times. If the volume dispensed is comparable to the amount expected from your Button
Settings (which are set in the programming menu as described BELOW) and consistent and the
pulsing is acting as expected you are done. However, if your dispensed calibration volume is
larger or smaller than the volume setting for each brew button, then adjust the “OZ Per tick”
until volumes match. For example, calibration volume delivers 6.5 oz, but the volume setting on
a brew button is 7 oz, adjust the Oz Per tick until 7 oz is delivered in the calibration volume.

To enter the maintenance menu turn the unit off then hold the Hot Water (Reset) key and the
Open key (Button A) while turning on the power to the Fresh Cup pod brewer. Hold both keys
down until “DRAIN LINE” scrolls across the display. Press the Mild key (Button B) until “OZ PER
TICK” is scrolling across the display.

Press the Hot Water (Reset) key to enter. A number will be displayed, 43 is the default value.
Pressing the Open key (Button A) will decrease the number. Pressing the Mild key (Button B)
will increase the number. A change of one number (example; 43 to 44) will alter the dispensed
volume by approx. 0.2 oz for a 7oz dispense. If you want more in your cup decrease the number
and if you want less in your cup increase the number. (Example; 43 to 44 will reduce your cup
volume and 43 to 42 will increase your cup volume.) Press the Hot Water (Reset) key to exit. The
display will show “END”. Press the Hot Water (Reset) key again to save your changes and to exit
to the normal Run mode.
