USING YOUR PERFECT POUR® THERMAL CARAFE

•For best performance, rinse the carafe with hot water before brewing. This brings up the temperature and improves the carafe’s thermal properties.

•The carafe spout is specially designed to deliver a dripless pour so you can serve coffee without any messy drips.

•Coffee is brewed directly into carafe through the closed brew thru lid. Always check that lid is properly in place when brewing. Coffee may overflow if lid is not properly in place.

•The carafe keeps coffee hot up to 4 hours so you can leave it away from coffeemaker for serving. Always check that lid is properly closed in place when not in use, this will ensure that coffee stays hot.
