USING THE YOUBREW™ - CARAFE MODE

First Time Use Only

We recommend flushing the machine to remove any dust particles or residues from the manufacturing process. Follow the proceeding instructions, ensuring to completely fill the water tank (Step 1), select ‘12 CUPS’ (Step 3) and the ‘PRE-GROUND’ coffee setting (Step 4). However do not add any coffee to the coffee basket. Once the cycle is complete, discard the water from the carafe and repeat the cycle again for best results. The machine is now ready to use.

1. Fill the Water Tank

Press open the flip-top lid. Pour the desired amount of cold, preferably filtered water into the tank using a jug or the provided carafe. If using the carafe, ensure the carafe lid is securely locked in place. The LCD screen will indicate the amount of water in the tank as it is filled. The machine will beep when full and the water level float will rise to indicate the maximum level. Do not exceed the 12 cup maximum. Doing so may cause the carafe to overflow or water spillage at the back of the machine. Close the flip-top lid.

NOTE

Check the water level on the LCD screen before use. We recommend always keeping the water tank full.

The water tank should be refilled with cold, preferably filtered water. Do not fill with any other liquid.

NOTE

Never pour water into the bean hopper or grinding chamber area. Doing so can cause the grinder to clog. Only re-commence use when the grinding chamber and grinding burrs are completely dry. Refer to Troubleshooting, ‘Moisture clogging grinder’, page 29.
