Before You Use Your Coffeemaker
Before preparing coffee in your new coffeemaker, thoroughly clean
the carafe, carafe lid and removable filter holder and permanent
filter in hot, sudsy water. Rinse and dry. Replace disassembled parts.
Clean the inside of the coffeemaker by brewing two full carafes of tap
water (see "Brewing Instructions" below). Do not place coffee in filter
holder for this initial cleaning.
Note: At the end of first cycle, turn coffeemaker off and wait ten
minutes. Turn unit on and brew second carafe of water.
Brewing Instructions
1. Plug coffeemaker into any 120 Volt, AC electrical outlet.
2. Fill carafe with cold tap water and pour into water chamber.
Markings on the carafe indicate level of water required to brew
desired number of cups. No less than two cups is recommended.
Note: The amount of brewed coffee will always be less than the
amount of water placed into coffeemaker, since about 10% is
absorbed by coffee grounds and filter.
3. Measure one level tablespoon of drip or regular grind coffee for
each cup of coffee desired. For stronger or milder coffee, adjust
amount of coffee to suit your taste. Add coffee to permanent filter
and place filter into filter holder.
4. Return filter holder to closed position.
5. Place carafe on warming plate.
6. Switch control to on.
7. If you wish to serve a cup of coffee before brew cycle is
completed, simply remove carafe from warming plate. Dripping
will automatically cease. Return carafe to position on warming
plate within a few seconds; dripping will resume.
5.
Brewing Instructions (Cont.)
8. Upon completion of the brew cycle, wait about one minute until
the brew dripping from the filter holder into the carafe has
stopped. Carafe lid should be kept in place to facilitate safe
serving and help keep coffee at proper serving temperature.
9. To keep coffee hot, return carafe to the warming plate after
serving. The warming plate will automatically cycle to maintain
ideal serving temperature as long as the coffeemaker is on.
10. Switch coffeemaker to off when carafe is empty or when unit is
not in use.
11. To brew another carafe of coffee, turn unit off and wait
10 minutes to allow heating element to cool. Important: If unit is
not allowed to cool before immediate repeated use, water placed
in water chamber may become overheated and a spray of steam
could be released from opening, creating a risk of burns.
Brewing A Second Pot Of Coffee
As mentioned above, it is recommended that the coffeemaker should
be in off position for 10 minutes between cycles, in order to allow
unit to cool. While unit is in off position, rinse carafe and permanent
filter and holder in water. Repeat brewing procedure.
Hints for Great Tasting Coffee
A clean coffeemaker is essential for making great tasting coffee.
Regular cleaning, as specified in "Care and Cleaning of your
Coffeemaker" on page 7 is highly recommended.
Always use fresh, cold water in your coffeemaker.
Finer grinds, such as drip and ADC coffee, promote fuller
extraction and provide rich, full-bodied coffee. Regular grind will
require slightly more coffee per cup to provide the strength of a
finer grind.
Automatic Drip Coffeemaker Use and Care Guide
6.
Hints for Great Tasting Coffee
Store coffee in a cool, dry place. Once coffee has been opened,
keep it tightly sealed in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
For optimum coffee, buy whole beans and grind them finely just
before brewing.
Do not re-use coffee grounds since this will greatly impair coffee
flavor.
Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor
immediately after brewing.
Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed, black coffee is due to the
extraction of oil from the coffee grounds. Oiliness may occur more
frequently if heavily roasted coffees are used. Over extraction may
also cause oiliness, indicating a need to clean your coffeemaker.
User Maintenance Instructions
This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user
serviceable parts. Do not try to repair it yourself. Refer it to a
qualified appliance repair technician if servicing is needed.
Care And Cleaning
Always make sure coffeemaker is unplugged and warming plate is
cool before attempting to clean. After daily use, the filter holder,
permanent filter and carafe should be washed in hot, sudsy water.
Wipe exterior with a damp cloth to remove superficial stains. For
stubborn stains, use a nylon or plastic pad with a non- abrasive
cleanser, such as Bon Ami®or Arm & Hammer®. Do not use metal
scouring pads or abrasive cleansers.
Special cleaning of your coffeemaker is recommended at least once a
month, depending on frequency of use and quality of water used in
the unit. If water in your area is especially hard, the following
cleaning procedure should be performed every two weeks, since
minerals in water can detract from the flavor of the coffee and
possibly lengthen brew time.
7.
Care And Cleaning (Cont.)
1. Fill carafe with one part white vinegar to three parts cold water.
Pour water and vinegar solution into the water chamber.
2. Place the permanent filter in the filter holder and swing to closed
position. Place carafe on warming plate. Switch control to on. During
cleaning, more steam will occur than during normal brewing.
3. KEEP THE COFFEEMAKER ON UNTIL CARAFE IS HALF FULL.
Switch control to off. When liquid stops dripping from filter holder
into the carafe, remove the holder and carafe and allow liquid to
cool in the carafe for 10 minutes. When cooled, pour liquid back
into the water chamber.
4. Replace holder and return carafe to warming plate.
5. Switch control to on. Repeat procedure, allowing all the cleaning
solution to empty into the carafe. After dripping has stopped,
discard contents of carafe.
6. After allowing coffeemaker to cool for 10 minutes, rinse it out by
brewing a carafe full of cold water.
7. At end of brew cycle, switch control to off. Discard water in the
carafe. Remove permanent filter and wash carafe and filter holder
in hot sudsy water. Dry parts.
8. When coffeemaker has cooled, wipe exterior with a dry cloth.
