How To Clean - Hamilton Beach Coffee brewer User Manual

NOTES:
• To make additional coffee, rinse the coffee urn and parts
with cold water and repeat steps 1 through 7.
• To reheat coffee, remove the basket, spreader, and pump
tube. Lock the cover in place and plug in the unit for 20 to 60
minutes, depending on the amount of coffee remaining. Do
not reheat if less than 20 cups are left in the coffee urn.

NOTE: We recommend using coffee that has been ground
specifically for use in a percolator-type coffee maker. However,
coffee marked "For All Coffee Makers" is acceptable. If using a
coffee grinder and whole beans, percolator coffee should be a
coarse grind. A finely ground coffee may cause the coffee basket
to overflow and result in grounds in coffee.

How To Clean

1. After each use and before washing, unplug power cord from
wall outlet and allow the unit to cool.
2. Carefully remove cover and all internal parts – parts, coffee
grounds, and remaining coffee which may still be hot.
3. Wash the inside of the coffee urn and the parts with warm,
soapy water. Do NOT immerse the base of the coffee urn in
water. The pump tube (with spring), basket, spreader, and
cover can be washed in a dishwasher. When washing the
pump tube, make sure the washer on the bottom remains
loose. If coffee grounds are trapped in this area, hold the
pump tube under running water or use a wooden toothpick
to remove them.
4. Wipe the outside of the coffee urn with a damp cloth and dry
with a towel. Store the coffee urn with the cover off.
5. After repeated use, there may be some coffee stains and
accumulation of oils that can cause a bitter taste. Periodically
use a coffee-stain remover or special cleanser and follow
package directions for cleaning. Rinse well after cleaning.
Do NOT use abrasive cleaners or pads on any part of the
coffee urn.
