Features of the Ninja Coffee Bar® System

• Thermal Flavor Extraction® Technology - Blends precision water delivery with automated controls for calibrated temperature, pre-infusion, coffee saturation, and ﬂavor richness to unlock the full ﬂavor potential of your coffee.

• Custom Brews – Ability to brew directly into your favorite cup, travel mug, or carafe.

• Brew Types – Control the strength and style of your coffee:

a. Classic Brew for smooth, balanced ﬂavor from your favorite coffee. b. Rich Brew for a richer, never-bitter coffee ﬂavor that stands up to milk, cream, or ﬂavoring. c. Over Ice Brew for a smooth, rich, freshly brewed iced coffee that’s not watered down. d. Specialty Brew for creating a super-rich concentrate to use as a key ingredient in all kinds of hot milk-based, iced,

and frozen coffeehouse-style drinks.

e. Cafe Forte for deep, full-bodied, and complex ﬂavor that is so rich and drinkable, it tastes great black—no milk or

sweeteners needed.

• Multi-Serve Cup Platform – Pull it down and place your favorite cup on it. Brew directly into your cup.

• Removable Water Reservoir with Easy-Access Flip-Top Lid – For quick and easy ﬁlling.

• Auto-iQ® – The Ninja Coffee Bar System knows how much water to use for each size and brew type.

• 50 oz. Thermal Carafe

• LED Control Panel with Programmable Digital Clock

• 24-Hour Programmable Delay Brew Button – Set it to automatically brew the following morning.

• Drip Stop – Stops the ﬂow of coffee from the brew basket, allowing you to pour a cup mid-brew. Switch toggle to the closed position to prevent dripping once the brew cycle is ﬁnished.

• Clean Function – When your Ninja Coffee Bar System senses there is hard water calcium buildup in your brewer which can affect the ﬂavor of your coffee, the CLEAN light will illuminate. Follow the cleaning instructions in the Care & Maintenance section.

• Audible Ready Signal – Alerts you that your coffee is ready.

• Permanent Filter - A reusable ﬁlter that preserves the natural coffee oils and small coffee particles to provide a robust ﬂavor, similar to what you would experience when using a French press.

• Pre-Heat - After plugging in and turning your brewer on by pressing the Power button, allow 3 minutes for your brewer to pre-heat. Your Ninja Coffee Bar System will remain pre-heated for 72 hours, unless you turn off your unit by pressing the Power button.
