Cleaning

Important: Before cleaning the caffé maker ensure that the appliance has cooled down.

Always disconnect the caffé maker from the power outlet before cleaning.

Never immerse the caffé maker switch area, cord or power base in water, or allow moisture to come into contact with these parts.

As the coffee making process involves extracting oils out of coffee grinds, deposits of these oils build up over time and affect the taste of the coffee and operation of the caffé maker. Cleaning to remove these oils is essential to ensure the caffé maker continues to produce good tasting coffee and to keep it operating effectively.

Stainless steel filter

The stainless steel filter should be washed after each use by rinsing it under warm water. Firstly remove the used coffee grinds from the filter by simply turning the filter upside down and spoon out the used coffee grinds into bin, see figure 9. Wash at regular intervals in warm soapy water using a mild detergent.

Should the holes in the filter become clogged with coffee granules use a fine bristled brush and if necessary clean using a pin.

Upper caffé chamber filter

The filter located in the underside of the upper caffé chamber also needs cleaning at regular intervals. Should the holes in the filter become clogged with coffee granules, clean using warm soapy water and a fine bristled brush and if necessary clean using a pin, see figure 10.

Upper caffé chamber rubber seal

This seal is located in the underside of the upper caffé chamber and creates a seal against the base of the caffé maker when making coffee.

Over time this seal looses its elasticity and will require replacement. An indication that the seal is deteriorating is when steam escapes from around the base and the upper caffé chamber during use.

Upper caffé chamber

The stainless steel upper caffé chamber may be washed with warm, soapy water. Rinse with clean water and dry.

The brushed stainless steel exterior

The stainless steel surface may be wiped over with a damp cloth and polished with a soft dry cloth.

Note: Do not use chemical, steel wool, or abrasive cleaners to clean the outside of the caffé maker, as these will scratch the stainless steel surface.
