How to make filter coffee
- When making smaller quantities of
coffee, it is better to place the glass jug
on the hotplate and then switch it on. In
that way, the freshly brewed coffee will
be delivered into the pre-heated jug.
- Open the pivoted filter holder (6) and
take off the filter holder lid (5)
(illustration I).
- Place a paper filter (size 1 x 4) into the
plastic filter and add fine ground coffee:
We recommend using
- approx. 6g=2 tsp. for a medium sized
coffee cup and
- approx. 4g=1
coffee cup.
The amount of coffee used may be
altered to taste.
- Replace the filter lid (5) back onto the
filter holder (6) and swing back the filter
holder.
- Open the water reservoir lid (3) and fill
the reservoir (4) with the required
amount of cold water. The minimum
quantity of water used should be for two
medium-sized coffee cups (illustration
II).
- The water level marks inside the water
reservoir help you to measure the
amount of water needed for the number
of cups of coffee you wish to prepare:
- water level marks on the left-hand
side:
medium-sized coffee cups (approx.
125 ml)
- water level marks on the right-hand
side:
smaller sized coffee cups.
●
Be careful not to exceed the maximum
water level of 8 medium-sized cups as
otherwise boiling water may be ejected
and cause burns.
- Close the water reservoir lid (3). This is
important as the "Vapotronic"-system
will can only operate while the lid is closed.
- Place the glass jug (9) with its lid (8) on
top of it onto the hotplate (10). The jug
lid opens the non-drip valve of the filter
holder (illustration III).
- Switch the hotplate (10) on by turning
the on/off switch (1) to ON-position.
Alternatively you can leave the hotplate
switched off during the filtering process
and switch it on only after the filtering
process is complete. This affects the
coffee temperature.
