Tips for general operation

For best results, always clean unit after every use and use fresh, cold water when brewing.

Finer grinds will produce a fuller extraction and provide a richer, full-bodied coffee while regular grinds will need more coffee per cup to produce the strength of a fi ner grind.

For stronger coffee, use more grinds; for weaker coffee, use less grinds. Grinding whole beans before use will produce optimum coffee.
