COFFEE BREWING TIPS

•Stir coffee in carafe before serving to evenly distribute the flavor and temperature.

•Coffee that is poured during brewing cycle may vary in strength and temperature from the finished brew.

•Not sure how much coffee to use – begin by using 1 rounded scoop of medium grind coffee for each cup of coffee to be brewed.

•Never reuse coffee filters; they absorb flavors from the brewed coffee and will give the newly brewed coffee a stale flavor. They may also tear and allow grinds.

•Freshly ground coffee beans give the best flavor. Grind what is needed just before brewing.

•If carafe filled with coffee is left in the appliance, be sure to remove the coffee grounds from the filter basket as soon as they have cooled slightly. This will keep the coffee from developing a bitter taste.

•For a special occasion, whip some heavy cream with 1 or 2 tablespoons of hazel nut, chocolate or almond liqueur. Use to top off each cup of coffee.

•Add a 2-inch piece of vanilla bean to the sugar bowl. You’ll be surprised at how it flavors the coffee.

•Keep your coffeemaker very clean; you’ll be pleased with the flavor.

•For iced coffee brew the coffee with twice the normal amount of grounds. The ice dilutes the coffee flavor. Or make coffee ice cubes from left over coffee and brew your coffee at its normal strength.

•Remember when pouring hot liquid into a glass, always put a spoon in the glass before adding the hot liquid. The spoon absorbs the heat and the glass will not break.

•Rinse both the carafe and the brew basket holder with warm water immediately after each use to maintain good coffee flavor.

Care and Cleaning

This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified service personnel.

Caution: Do not expose the control panel to water. Water may cause permanent damage and make the coffeemaker inoperable.

1.Make sure the unit is unplugged and cooled before cleaning.

2.Remove filter basket by grasping the integrated handle and pulling out.

3.Discard the paper filter with the grounds.

4.Clean parts as follows:

•Filter basket and carafe are top-rack dishwasher-safe; or they may be hand washed in warm, sudsy water.

•Wipe the exterior and “Keep Hot” carafe plate with a soft damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads.

TREAT CARAFE WITH CARE

A damaged carafe may result in possible burns from a hot liquid. To avoid breaking:

•Do not allow all liquid to evaporate from the carafe while on the “Keep Hot” carafe plate or heat the carafe when empty.

•Discard the carafe if damaged in any manner. A chip or crack could result in breakage.

•Never use abrasive scouring pads or cleansers; they will scratch and weaken the glass.

•Do not place the carafe on or near a hot gas or electric burner, in a heated oven or in a microwave.

•Avoid rough handling and sharp blows.

MINERAL DEPOSITS AND CLOGGING

Mineral deposits left by hard water can clog your coffeemaker. Excessive steaming and/or a prolonged brewing cycle are signs that cleaning is needed. The frequency of cleaning out deposits is affected by the regularity of usage and water hardness. During cleaning, more steaming occurs than when brewing coffee and may emit spurts of steam. Cleaning is recommended every 60 brewing cycles.

1.Fill carafe with white vinegar up to 6-cup water line. Add water up to 8-cup line. Remove the water reservoir and fill with vinegar mixture. Replace reservoir.

Caution: Do not overfill water reservoir.

2.Put a paper filter in the filter basket and replace. Set empty carafe on the “Keep Hot” carafe plate.

3.Turn on coffeemaker and let half the cleaning solution brew into carafe (until water level is around the 3-cup line in the carafe). Turn coffeemaker off and let it soak for at least 15 minutes to soften the deposits.

4.Turn on coffeemaker and brew remaining cleaning solution into carafe.

5.Turn off coffeemaker, empty carafe and discard filter.
