4 Fit either the permanent filter supplied or a paper filter
into the filter holder. Add the coffee using the spoon
supplied. (Note: The strength of your brewed coffee will
depend on the variety and strength of coffee used not
the amount. For best brewing 1 level spoon of coffee is
recommended per cup).
5 Close the lid and put the carafe on the hotplate. NOTE:
The lid must be fitted to the carafe in order to operate the
anti-drip valve.
6 Plug in and switch on.
7 Don't remove the carafe until brewing has finished. W hen
the carafe is empty, switch off and unplug the appliance.
The hot plate will keep your coffee hot, but the sooner you
drink it, the better it will taste.
Your coffee maker will keep the coffee warm and then
automatically switch off after 2 hours.
If you have not used the appliance for a while, run one full
tank of water (without coffee) through to clean it out.
TIPS
The Water ~ Your coffee is around 98-99% water so it's impor-
tant to ensure you use fresh filtered water. We recom-
mend using filtered water as it will reduce limescale and
prolong the use of your coffee maker.
The Coffee ~ This machine will optimize the flavor of medium
ground coffee, to deliver full body, aroma and taste. Be
sure before you buy that the coffee is suitable for a filter
machine. Or if you grind your own beans set the grinder to
medium coarseness. If the particles are too small, water
will pass through the filter too slowly resulting in 'over-
extraction'; your coffee will taste bitter. If particles are too
large, water will pass through too quickly resulting in 'un-
der-extraction'; your coffee will taste weak and watery.
The Measurements ~ To brew a perfectly balanced cup we
recommend to use 1 measuring spoon of ground coffee
per cup. Use the measuring spoon provided to do this ac-
curately. Coffee will taste better when fresh so we recom-
mend drinking within 30 minutes of brewing, any longer
and taste begins to deteriorate.
The Maintenance ~ Use paper filters or a permanent filter ei-
ther type is suitable to produce great coffee. We recom-
mend that you rinse your permanent filter with water
after every use as any residual detergent could taint your
coffee. Dispose of the used grounds immediately after
use to prevent drip through of unwanted flavors trapped
in the used coffee grounds. Try to keep your coffee ma-
chine clean, especially the shower head as this will help
to prolong your machine and maintain perfect brewing.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
before carrying out any cleaning operations, switch the appliance
off, unplug it from the power outlet, and let it cool down.
•
Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents to clean the
appliance. A soft damp cloth is sufficient.
•
Never immerse the coffee maker in water: it is an electrical
appliance.
•
Don't wash parts in the dishwasher.
Carafe and lid, filter holder and permanent filter holder
•
Wash, then dry.
body
•
Wipe with a damp cloth, then dry. Don't use abrasives -
they'll scratch the plastic and metal surfaces.
Mesh filter
•
The mesh filter h in the tank can be lifted out for cleaning
if required. Always ensure it is replaced before filling the
tank with water.
To descale
If the water in your area is hard, lime scale deposits may build
up over time. These deposits may affect the correct operation
of the appliance. It is recommended to descale the appliance
after 60 uses.
1 Buy a suitable descaler. Follow the instructions provided
with the product.
2 Descale the machine.
3 After descaling, run at least two full tanks of water
(without coffee) through the coffee maker to clean it
out.
4 Wash the parts.
