SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

POWER-SUPPLY CORD

A short power-supply cord is to be provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

Extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, if the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be grounding -type 3-wire cord. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

SWITCHING OFF THE KETTLE MANUALLY

The ON/OFF switch (5) can also be used to switch off the kettle before the water boils.

SAFETY CUT-OFF

The kettle is protected against damage resulting from use with an insufficient volume of water. A safety cut-off will automatically disconnect the power supply if the heating element overheats.

Should the kettle ever boil dry during operation, you must leave it to cool for 10 minutes before re-filling it with cold water. The safety cut-off will reset automatically once it has cooled.

BEFORE USING THE KETTLE

Clean the kettle before using it for the first time by filling it completely (to the MAX mark) with water, boiling the water, and then discarding the water.

HOW TO USE THE WATER KETTLE

FILLING THE WATER KETTLE

Remove the appliance body from the base unit (7).

Open the lid (1), fill with water and close the lid again.

Do not fill the kettle with less than 0.25l/8.5oz (above the MIN mark) and not more than the MAX mark, to prevent the kettle from boiling dry or boiling water escaping from the spout.

Bodum 11445 manual Special Instructions, HOW to USE the Water Kettle

11445 specifications

Bodum 11445, also known as the Bodum Brazil French Press, is a quintessential addition for coffee enthusiasts who appreciate full-bodied flavor in every cup. This elegant coffee maker is designed to simplify the brewing process while ensuring that the aromatic and flavorful essences of coffee beans are preserved.

One of the standout features of the Bodum 11445 is its stylish and functional design, characterized by a classic French press aesthetic. Made predominantly of heat-resistant borosilicate glass, the carafe allows you to observe the brewing process while maintaining optimal temperature control. The ergonomic handle and the plunger mechanism are crafted from durable plastic, providing a comfortable grip and ease of use.

At the heart of the Bodum 11445’s functionality is its patented brewing technology. The French press system employs a simple yet effective method of steeping coffee grounds in hot water, allowing for enhanced extraction of flavors. This technique ensures that the coffee is rich, aromatic, and distinctly flavorful without the bitterness often associated with brewing methods like drip coffee.

The stainless steel filter screen in the Bodum 11445 is another critical feature that adds to its performance. By effectively separating the coffee grounds from the liquid, this filter allows oils and fine particles to pass through, granting a robust texture to the coffee. This results in a beverage that highlights the complex notes of the coffee beans.

Cleaning and maintaining the Bodum 11445 is uncomplicated. The components are easily disassembled and dishwasher safe, making it a practical choice for everyday use and ensuring that the rich taste of your coffee is not compromised by residual flavors from previous brews.

Furthermore, the Bodum Brazil French Press accommodates various brewing preferences, allowing users to adjust the steeping time for a stronger or lighter cup according to their taste. It also caters to environmental consciousness with its reusable design, reducing waste compared to single-use coffee pods.

In summary, the Bodum 11445 stands out as a reliable, stylish, and efficient coffee brewing solution. Its combination of classic French press brewing technology, quality materials, and user-friendly design make it an exceptional choice for those who seek to elevate their coffee experience at home. Whether you're a seasoned barista or a casual coffee drinker, the Bodum Brazil French Press promises a delightful brew every time.
