C1000AP & C1000APT Airpot Brewer

INTRODUCTION

This manual applies to Curtis Dual Station Airpot Brewer models C1000AP and C1000APT.

Model C1000AP is designed for use with Curtis Airpots CAP-1 thru CAP-5, and other insulated dispensers up to 13¾" tall when opened for filling (see illustration, Step 3 in Coffee Brewing). Starting early in 1994, this brewer was increased in height to accommodate the larger "Deluxe" stainless steel brew cone. The taller brewer will also allow you to use insulated dispensers to 14¾" tall with the Universal (plastic) brew cone or the optional stainless steel brew cone.

Model C1000APT is designed for use with the Curtis Airpot CAP-T1 with integral serving stand and gauge glass and other insulated dispensers to 18" tall in filling position. It can also be used with the larger Gour- met brew cone, but will then accept only insulated dispensers of 17" or less. You can use CAP-T1 and CAP-1 thru CAP-5 airpots in combination with all brew cones on the C1000APT.

All Curtis airpots have a capacity of 2.2 liters and the brewers are preset at the factory. You can vary the amount of coffee brewed by adjusting the brew timer.

Brewers with the Universal (plastic) brew cone or the optional stainless steel brew cone of the same size use CR-10 filters. The larger Deluxe brew cone uses GEM-6 filters. See Airpot Accessory Sheet (packed with your manual) to identify your brew cone and for information on other Curtis accessories.

SETTING UP THE COFFEE BREWER

1.Remove top cover of brewer. Remove lid from heating tank. Hand fill tank until water level is approximately two inches below probe tip.

2.A 1/4" flare fitting is required to hook-up the water inlet. Connect water line to inlet valve fitting. Turn on water.

3.With top cover removed, locate the thermostat (see illustration, page 5, #30), turn thermostat knob (#32) clockwise until it stops.

4.Connect unit into appropriate power circuit. Flip POWER SWITCH (behind unit) ON. Water should flow into heating tank (and the heaters will come on). Check that water shuts off when it reaches the probe inside the tank.

5.Turn on the ON/OFF SWITCH on the front. This powers the BREW TIMERS. Place an empty BREW CONE into the guide rails for the left brewer, and an empty airpot beneath it. Press the left BREW SWITCH to start the brew cycle. Repeat the test on the right brewer when the water is hot.

6.If necessary, the brew volume for either station can be increased or decreased by adjusting the appropriate timer. Left and right brewers can be set for different volumes if you use two sizes of insulated dispensers (the quantity of ground coffee needed in the brew will change when a timer has been adjusted). TURN OFF POWER SWITCH ON BACK. Rotate the appropriate timer knob slightly to increase or decrease time and brew volume. Run a brew cycle to verify the brew volume. When you are satisfied with the adjustment, install the top cover and tighten the cover screws.

The READY TO BREW light will come on when the water in the heating tank reaches brewing temperature. For best results, do not brew coffee until this light is on. It is normal for the light to go out as soon as brew- ing begins.

IMPORTANT: The timer is adjusted at the factory to brew into a standard 2.2 liter airpot and has been set between 3 min. 20 sec. to 3 min. 40 sec.. The timer shall not be set longer than 4 min..
