HINTS FOR GREAT TASTING COFFEE:

zA clean Coffeemaker is essential for making great tasting coffee. Regular cleaning, as specified in CLEANING YOUR COFFEEMAKER, is highly recommended.

zAlways use fresh, cold filtered or bottled water in your Coffeemaker.

zFine grind coffee (such as Gevalia) promotes fuller extraction and provides a rich, full-tasting coffee. Regular grind coffee will require slightly more coffee grounds per cup to provide the strength of a finer grind.

zStore coffee in a cool, dry place. Once coffee has been opened, keep it tightly sealed in the refrigerator or freezer to maintain its freshness.

zFor optimum coffee flavor, buy whole beans and grind them just before brewing.

zDo not re-use coffee grounds as this will lessen the coffee flavor.

zReheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor immediately after brewing.

zSmall oil droplets on the surface of the brewed coffee is due to the extraction of oil from the coffee grounds. Oiliness may occur more frequently if heavily roasted coffee is used. Heavy use may also cause an increase in oil deposits, indicating a need to clean your Coffeemaker more frequently.

CLEANING YOUR COFFEEMAKER

zCAUTION: Always make sure Coffeemaker is unplugged before attempting to clean it. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plug or unit in water or other liquids.

zThe outside of your Coffeemaker can be cleaned by wiping the surface with a damp,

soft cloth.

IMPORTANT: Never immerse the Coffeemaker in water or other liquids.
