C. Adding Water and Ground Coffee
1. Open the brew basket lid. For your convenience,
you can lift out the removable filter basket.
2. Place a MR. COFFEE ® brand 10-12 cup
paper basket-style filter or a MR. COFFEE
permanent filter into the removable filter basket
(Figure 5).
NOTE: If using paper filters, it is important that the
sides of the filter fit flush against the side of the filter
basket. If filter collapse occurs, dampen the filter before
placing in the filter basket and adding ground coffee
and water.
3. Add the desired amount of coffee and gently
shake to level the coffee. See the Suggested
Coffee Measurement Chart.
4. After following instructions in the Water
Filtration System, place the MR. COFFEE
water filter in the basket, making sure that the side marked "this side up"
faces you and that the water filter is level.
5. Be sure the removable filter basket is properly centered and all the way down in the brew
basket and close the lid.
6. Fill the decanter with cold, fresh water to the desired capacity (1 cup equals 5 ounces) For easy
and accurate filling, the water markings on the glass decanter and on the dual water
windows show the amount of water needed to make the corresponding desired number
of cups. Do not fill past the "12 cup MAX line" or water will flow out of the overfill hole
in the back of the coffeemaker.
The amount of coffee brewed will always be slightly less than the amount of water poured
in the water reservoir. This is due to the minimum absorption of water by
the coffee grounds.
7. Lift the pour through reservoir lid and pour the water into the water reservoir. Close the
lid and place the empty decanter onto the warmer plate.
NOTE: Make sure the decanter is fully placed on the warming plate or the water and the
grounds will overflow from the filter basket. An overflow may cause personal injury or
damage to property.
CAUTION! To reduce the risk of damaging the decanter and/or the risk of
personal injury, do not add cold water to the decanter if the decanter is already
hot. Allow the decanter to cool before using.
