Filter Coffee Maker
How to prepare the filter coffee
• Open the frontal door by pulling the handle (fig. 1) and, by using
the jug, pour fresh water into the water compartment up to the
level corresponding to the number of cups you want to make.
Check the water level viewer and it is suggested to use the
provided carafe as the measure, as the maximum volume of the
carafe corresponds to those of the water tank (fig. 2).
• Place the permanent filter in the filter holder (fig. 3).
• Place the ground coffee in the filter, using the measuring spoon
supplied, and level evenly (Fig. 4). As a general rule, use a level
measuring spoon of ground coffee (around 7 grams) for each
cup (for example, 8 spoons to make 8 cups). Never use more
than 15 level spoons. The quantity of ground coffee used will
vary according to personal taste. Use good quality, medium
ground coffee, packaged for filter coffee makers.
• Close the lid and place the jug on the plate with the lid on (fig.
5).
• Press the "ON/OFF" switch (Fig. 6). The light on the button
comes on to indicate that the drip coffee maker is operating.
• The coffee will start to come out after a few seconds. It is
completely normal for the appliance to release a little
steam while the coffee is filtering.
• If you leave the ON/OFF button pressed after percolation has
finished, the plate will keep the coffee at the ideal temperature.
Attention: removing the jug before all the coffee is made does
not interrupt production of the coffee, but merely blocks flow
into the jug. If you want to pour out a little coffee immediate-
ly, you are recommended to do so as rapidly as possible in
order to avoid the coffee overflowing in the filter holder.
