pouring
21 To pour, remove the carafe from the hotplate, and pour from the spout.
22 Replace the carafe on the hotplate to keep your coffee warm.
23 You may notice some resistance when you replace the carafe – this is caused by the
top of the carafe pushing against the non-drip valve.
a quick cup
24 You may remove the carafe to pour coffee at any time. The non-drip valve will stop
coffee dripping on to the hotplate.

much, but its more than enough time to pour a couple of cups.

ground coffee

28 If you want to buy ready-ground coffee, medium-ground filter coffee will give you
the best results. The amount will vary with the type of coffee and your individual
taste. We suggest starting with two rounded teaspoons of medium-ground coffee
per cup.

storing coffee

29 Coffee is best kept in an airtight container in a cool dry place, or in the fridge.
Exposure to air oxidises coffee and allows the flavour to evaporate.
milk
30 There's a great deal of contention on the subject of milk in coffee. Our view is that
personal taste should rule, not convention. If you like milk in your coffee, use warm
or hot milk, to avoid overcooling the coffee. To extract maximum flavour from the
coffee, it should be cool enough not to scald or burn the mouth, but hot enough to
let the flavour fill the mouth, nose and sinuses, not just the taste buds.
