Pump cap

The amount of water used with your MyJo coffee maker will determine the strength of your coffee or tea. For the first use, fill the water reservoir to the fill lines suggested below:

• For normal strength coffee or tea, fill to the 8-ounce line with water.

• For stronger coffee or tea, fill to the 6-ounce line with water.

• For weaker coffee or tea, fill to the 10-ounce line with water.

For subsequent uses, adjust the strength, if necessary, by simply increasing or decreasing the

amount of water as desired. Note: The fill line markings provide the necessary water to produce 6, 8, and 10 ounces of brewed coffee or tea.

Water fill lines

1. Place a single serve pack into the pack holder (Fig. B). Press down firmly on the single

serve pack until the bottom of the pack is punctured. CAUTION! There is a sharp needle in

Reservoir grip

the pack holder. To prevent injury, do not place fingers in the pack holder.

2. Heat the water and assemble the unit using one of the following methods:

Pack holder

A. Microwave:

• Fill the water reservoir with the desired amount of water.

Base

• Place the filled reservoir in the microwave. Be sure the base is not attached to the reservoir, as the base is not microwave safe. Heat water to the desired temperature.

Base ribs

CAUTION! When handling the reservoir containing hot water, always grasp the red grip as the other portions of the reservoir will be very hot.

• Push the pump cap onto the top of the pump.

• Attach the pump to the reservoir. Insert the ridged portion of the pump into the reservoir, pressing around the pump edge until the pump is attached firmly to the reservoir. Important: Press only the

pump edge. Do not press the pump cap or pump.

• Grasp the red grip on the filled reservoir and place the reservoir onto the base. Screw on clockwise until tight.

B. Tea Kettle:

• Use an electric or stovetop tea kettle and heat water to the desired temperature.

• Attach the base to the reservoir prior to filling it with water. Screw the reservoir on clockwise until tight. Then, place the unit on a dry, level surface and carefully fill the

reservoir with the desired amount of heated water. CAUTION! Do not hold onto the reservoir when pouring hot water into it.

• Push the pump cap onto the top of the pump.

3. Brew

• The MyJo coffee maker is designed to fit on most coffee mugs. Verify that your mug is the right size before pumping your coffee. The ribs on the bottom of the base should fit within the inside rim of your mug; the diameter of the inner rim of the mug should

be at least 2¼˝ but not more than 3¾˝ wide. You should also make sure you select a mug which is the appropriate size for the

amount of coffee or tea you are brewing.

• Place the assembled coffee maker over the selected coffee mug.

• Position the coffee maker and mug directly in front of you. Grasp the coffee maker base with one hand and place the palm of your other hand on the pump cap (Fig. C). If using a tall travel mug, grasp the top portion of the mug instead of the coffee maker base. Note: Another method for pumping the water is by placing one hand over the other (Fig. D). However, do not use this method when using tall mugs, such as travel mugs.

• Using the palm of your hand, gradually press down on the pump cap, keeping your hand down until the coffee or tea ceases to flow. Release and allow the pump to return to the original position and press down again. Repeat this process until all the water is

expelled through the single serve pack and into your coffee mug. You will hear a swoosh when all of the water has been expelled.

• Lift the coffee maker off the coffee mug and place the coffee maker on a plate or in the sink to catch any residual drops.

• Enjoy your fresh brewed coffee or tea!

To Prepare Hot Cocoa and Other Beverages

When using your MyJo coffee maker to prepare other beverages, such as hot cocoa, cappuccino, or hot cider, BEFORE inserting the single serve pack into the holder, place the base over your mug. This will allow any powder residue to be contained in your mug once the pack is punctured since these types of single serve beverages do not have a filter. For the first use, fill the water reservoir to the 6-ounce line. For subsequent uses, adjust the amount of water as desired.
