COFFEE BREWING TIPS

• Stir coffee in carafe before serving to evenly distribute the flavor.
• Coffee that is poured during brewing cycle may vary in strength from the finished
brew.
• Not sure how much coffee to use? Begin by using level tablespoon of medium
grind coffee for each cup of coffee to be brewed.
• For variety, add a 2-inch piece of lemon or orange peel to the coffee grounds
before brewing.
• For a special occasion, whip some heavy cream with or 2 tablespoons of hazel nut,
chocolate or almond liqueur. Use to top off each cup of coffee.
• Add a 2-inch piece of vanilla bean to the sugar bowl. You'll be surprised at how
good it tastes.
• Keep your coffeemaker scrupulously clean; you will be pleased with the flavor.

CARAFE CARE
Note: A damaged carafe may result in possible burns from a hot liquid.
To avoid breaking:
• Do not allow all liquid to evaporate from the carafe while on the "Keep Hot"
carafe plate or heat the carafe when empty.
• Discard the carafe if chipped, cracked or damaged in any manner.
• Never use abrasive scouring pads or cleansers; they will scratch and
weaken the glass.
• Do not place the carafe on or near a gas or electric burner, in a heated
oven, or in a microwave oven.
• Avoid rough handling and sharp blows.
