Hints For Best Results

• We recommend using coffee which has been ground specifically
for automatic drip coffee makers. This type of coffee is prepared
specifically for your Coffee Maker's brewing system and promotes
fuller extraction to provide rich, full-bodied coffee.
• Use only cone-shaped filters with this Coffee Maker. Cone-shaped
paper filters are available locally at grocery stores. Use standard, #4
filters. Do not use basket-style paper filters.
We recommend using Melitta #4 cone-shaped filters.
• A clean Coffee Maker is essential for making great tasting coffee.
Regular cleaning, as specified in the USER MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS, is highly recommended.
• Always use fresh, cold water in your Coffee Maker.
• Store coffee in a cool, dry place. Once coffee has been opened,
keep it tightly sealed in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
• For optimum coffee, buy whole beans and grind them finely just
before brewing.
• Do not re-use coffee grounds since this will greatly impair
coffee flavor.
• Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor
immediately after brewing.
• If using the Fast Brew for both coffee and tea, it is recommended to
thoroughly clean the Carafe, Lid, and Removable Filter Holder in
warm soapy water. Wipe the Showerhead, located at the under-
neath side of the appliance's lid, with a clean, damp cloth.
