INTRODUCTION

Model C250AP is compatible with most 2.2 liter airpots, and other insulated dispensers up to 13¾" tall when
opened for filling (see illustrations). Starting early in 1994, this brewer was increased in height to accommodate the larger Deluxe SS brew cone, or insulated dispensers to 14¾" tall with the Universal (plastic) or
optional SS brew cones.
You don't need to connect a water line to use this coffee brewer. To brew coffee, water is poured into the
machine manually. Pour-over brewers are quite simple to service and maintain. Read this manual to become familiar with the coffee brewer. You should be able to start brewing coffee within 30 minutes.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION Please use this setup procedure before attempting to
use this brewer. Failure to follow the instructions can result in injury or
voiding of the factory warranty.
1. Carefully unpack shipping carton. Check for any damage.
2. Place the brewer on a level surface.
CAUTION This brewer is shipped with the thermostat turned on. To
prevent damage to the heating element, DO NOT plug in power cord
until tank has been filled (step 3).
3. Slide an empty brew cone into place on the unit. Place a
container under the brew cone to catch any water that may drip.
4. Pour water into the pour hole on top cover of the brewer (fig 1). When
water starts to come out from the sprayhead, the tank is full. Stop
pouring.
Figure 1. Filling the HeatingTank
5. Plug cord into a 120 volt electrical outlet. Switch on power at the toggle
switch behind the brewer.
6. Allow the brewer to come to full temperature. The ready light will come on. It will take 15 to 25 minutes
the first time the unit is plugged in. There will be some water discharged into the container as the water
heats up. This is normal. You are now ready to brew.
IMPORTANT Water may be lost from the tank due to evaporation if the brewer is left for long periods of
time without making coffee. When this occurs, top off the tank again (step 3 above) before attempting to
brew coffee.
COFFEE BREWING
1. Place a clean filter into the brewcone. Pour ground coffee into the filter.
The amount of ground coffee used will depend on personal or regional preferences.
2. Slide the brew cone on the guide rails in against the stop. Place an empty airpot under the cone.
Note that most airpots must be opened and the siphon assembly removed for filling. Preheating the airpot is
recommended and may increase the serving temperature by 4º-5º F.
