Filling The Water Reservoir; Putting In The Coffee - Oster Designer 3272 Instruction Booklet

FILLING THE WATER RESERVOIR

Open the hinged water reservoir cover located
l
at the top of the coffee maker. Fill the glass
carafe with the desired amount of cold water,
Empty the water from the carafe into the water
reservoir. The water window indicates how
much water is in the container. Close the
hinged lid. Place the glass carafe with the lid
in place on the warming plate.
NOTE: The amount of brewed coffee after the
brewing process will always be slightly
less than the amount of water placed into
the coffee maker, since some water is
absorbed by the coffee grounds and
filter. Add a little extra water at the
beginning so that you have the exact
number of cups desired.

PUTTING IN THE COFFEE

Swing the filter basket door outward to
l
your right. Lift out the removable filter basket,
Insert a #4 cone-shaped filter into the
filter basket.
A permanent filter may be used instead of
l
or in addition to the paper filter. Fill the
permanent filter with the required amount
of coffee. After brewing cycle, empty the
grounds and rinse thoroughly with water,
Place the desired amount of ground coffee
l
into the filter. According to coffee industry
standards, use one standard coffee measure
(2 level tablespoons) of grounds for each
six ounces of water. After using your coffee
maker several times, the amount of coffee
may be adjusted to suit your particular taste,
by decreasing or increasing the amount of
coffee used.
NOTE: Be sure to use coffee grounds prepared specifically
for automatic drip coffee makers.
