HINTS FOR GREATTASTING COFFEE
•A clean coffeemaker is essential for making great tasting coffee.Regular
cleaning, as specified in “CARE AND CLEANING OF YOUR COF-
FEEMAKER” is highly recommended.
• Always use fresh, cold water in your coffeemaker.
• Finer grinds, such as drip and ADC coffee, promote fuller extraction and
provide rich, full-bodied coffee.Regular grind will require slightly more cof-
fee per cup to provide the strength of a finer grind.
•Store coffee in a cool, dry place.Once coffee has been opened, keep it
tightly sealed in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
• For optimum flavor, buy whole beans and grind them just before brewing.
•Do not re-use coffee grounds since this will greatly impair coffee flavor.
•Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor imme-
diately after brewing.
• Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed coffee is due to the extraction
of oil from the coffee grounds.Oiliness may occur more frequently if heav-
ily roasted coffees are used.Over-extraction may also cause oiliness, indi-
cating a need to clean your coffeemaker.
