Steeping Tea - Sunbeam Mrs. Tea HTM1 Operating Instructions Manual

IMPORTANT
Clean Your Automatic Hot Tea Maker Before Using the First Time!

Follow steps 4 through 6 below (with water only) to clean the inside of your automatic

Steeping Tea

1. Swing -out the brew basket to the right, and insert a 4-CUP basket style, Mr. Coffee@
brand8 paper filter into the inner brew basket.
2. Add desired amount of tea according to the tea measurement chart found below. We
recommend between 3-5 black tea bags or rounded teaspoons of loose tea. If
brewing herbal teas, the amount of tea may need to be increased to reach desired
strength.
3. Be sure the paper filter is prop
Place. Close the brew basket .
Remove the ceramic tea pot from the warming
Fill the ceramic tea pot with tap water to about
a full pot. Do not exceed 30 ounces.
6. Remove the ceramic tea pot lid from the water reservoir. Pour the water into the
the water reservoir. In the opening of the reservoir you will find a knob and a series
of spokes. This design prevents the water from splashing when it is poured into the
unit. Then rinse the ceramic tea pot with hot water. Place the empty
onto the warmer plate. Return the ceramic tea pot lid to the
top of the water reservoir.
7. Adjust steeping lever. The farther the lever is set to the right the longer the steeping
time and the stronger the tea. The lever will allow you to adjust the brew cycle time
from 8 to 11 minutes.
8. Turn your automatic hot tea maker switch ON. The warmer plate will automatically
start heating the pot to avoid "shocking" the tea once it is dispensed. This is accom-
plished by a specially designed foot on our tea pot. When tea stops flowing, the
steeping cycle is complete. Tee will be kept warm by leaving the ceramic tea pot on
the wanner plate. When sewing tea, remove the ceramic tea pot from the warmer
plate. Take the ceramic tea

ceramic tea pot lid should not be left on the ceramic tea pot when it is resting on the
