COFFEE BREWING TIPS
• Stir coffee in carafe before serving to evenly distribute the flavor and temperature.
• Coffee that is poured during brewing cycle may vary in strength and temperature
from the finished brew.
• Not sure how much coffee to use – begin by using 1 rounded scoop of medium
grind coffee for each cup of coffee to be brewed.
• Never reuse coffee filters; they absorb flavors from the brewed coffee and will give
the newly brewed coffee a stale flavor. They may also tear and allow grinds.
• Freshly ground coffee beans give the best flavor. Grind what is needed just before
brewing.
• If carafe filled with coffee is left in the appliance, be sure to remove the coffee
grounds from the filter basket as soon as they have cooled slightly. This will keep
the coffee from developing a bitter taste.
• For a special occasion, whip some heavy cream with 1 or 2 tablespoons of hazel
nut, chocolate or almond liqueur. Use to top off each cup of coffee.
•
dd a 2-inch piece of vanilla bean to the sugar bowl. You'll be surprised at how it
flavors the coffee.
• Keep your coffeemaker very clean; you'll be pleased with the flavor.
• For iced coffee brew the coffee with twice the normal amount of grounds. The ice
dilutes the coffee flavor. Or make coffee ice cubes from left over coffee and brew
your coffee at its normal strength.
• Remember when pouring hot liquid into a glass, always put a spoon in the glass
before adding the hot liquid. The spoon absorbs the heat and the glass will not
break.
• Rinse both the carafe and the brew basket holder with warm water immediately
after each use to maintain good coffee flavor.

MINER L DEPOSITS ND CLOGGING
Mineral deposits left by hard water can clog your coffeemaker. Excessive steaming
and/or a prolonged brewing cycle are signs that cleaning is needed. The frequency of
cleaning out deposits is affected by the regularity of usage and water hardness. During
cleaning, more steaming occurs than when brewing coffee and may emit spurts of
steam. Cleaning is recommended every 60 brewing cycles.
1. Fill carafe with white vinegar up to 6-cup water line. dd water up to 8-cup line.
Remove the water reservoir and fill with vinegar mixture. Replace reservoir.
Caution: Do not overfill water reservoir.

Hot" carafe plate.
