BREWING COFFEE

Figure A

1.Remove the Water Spreader and place a paper coffee filter into the Filter Basket. Add drip grind coffee to the filter corresponding to the amount of coffee to be brewed (usually one heaping tablespoon for every two cups. Adjust to suit your taste). When brewing 2-4 cups, use slightly more grounds per cup. Replace the Water Spreader over the Filter Basket.

2.Use the Carafe to fill the Water Reservoir with cold water to the desired cup level. Close the Flip-Up Reservoir Cover.

3.Place the Filter Basket (with Water Spreader) over the empty Carafe, (Figure A) then sit the Carafe on the “Keeps Hot” plate.

4.Slide the Control to “On.” You will see a red square in the display. The “Keeps Hot” plate comes on automat- ically when brewing begins.

5.Let all the brewed coffee drip from the Basket. Remove the Basket and Spreader and set it aside. Place the Serving Lid on the Carafe. (Figure B)

6.Place the Carafe on the “Keeps

Hot” plate when not serving to keep coffee hot. The “Keeps Hot” plate will remain warm until the unit is turned off by sliding the Control to “Off”.

7.DO NOT pour brewed coffee back into the Water Reservoir to reheat it. Reheat coffee in a saucepan on a range or in a microwave-safe contain- er in a microwave oven. Do not put the Carafe in a microwave oven.
