COFFEE BREWING TIPS

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

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

•Not sure how much coffee to use? Begin by using 1 level scoop of medium grind coffee for each cup of coffee to be brewed.

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

•Open coffee grounds are best stored in refrigerator in tightly sealed container. Once opened coffee should be used within 1 month.

•If carafe filled with coffee is left on keep warm plate, be sure to remove coffee grounds from brew basket as soon as they have cooled slightly. This will keep coffee from developing bitter taste.

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

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

•Keep your coffeemaker very clean; it affects the flavor of coffee.

•For iced coffee, brew coffee with twice the normal amount of grounds. Ice will dilute 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.
