the flow of brewed
tea. Neglecting this screen will
eventually cause the brewcone to
overflow, spilling hot liquid over the
unit.
CAUTION: DO NOT
use undiluted bleach or
chlorine.
CAUTION
Do not immerse airpots
in water.
Do not place in dishwasher.
Do not use harsh powders or
cleansers containing chlorine.
Do not use a wire brush or pot
scour to clean inside liner.
TEA TIPS
1. Store tea bags in a dark, cool and dry place away from strong odors and moisture. Do not refrigerate.
2. Never hold finished brewed tea for more than eight hours at room temperature. Discard any unused
tea after eight hours
3. Brew only enough tea that you reasonably expect to sell within a few hours.
4. To protect tea flavor and to avoid bacterial contamination and growth, clean and sanitize tea brewing,
storage and dispensing equipment at least once a day.
Regular cleaning of your airpots and tea containers will maintain the highest quality coffee and iced tea
your equipment is capable of producing. A proper cleaning is essential in preserving the appearance of the
brewer.
1. Turn off the tea brewer at the ON/OFF button on the front control panel.
2. Wipe exterior surfaces with a damp cloth, removing spills and debris.
3. Slide the brewcone out and clean it. Thoroughly soap the sprayhead area with a mild detergent solu-
tion.
4. Wash the brewcone and wire brew basket, if applicable. Use a soft bristled brush for hard to clean
areas. Wash both parts with a detergent solution or put these parts through a dishwasher.
5. Wash the tea container and top cover. Use a detergent solution and a soft bristled brush to clean inside
the container. Wipe the exterior surfaces with a sponge and detergent solution. Rinse thoroughly.
6. Clean the faucet assembly. Unscrew the handle assembly from the faucet and remove. Clean the
faucet shank with a gage glass brush (circular bristle) by pushing the brush through the shank. Using
the same brush clean the faucet body inlet and outlet. Clean the faucet cap and silicone seat cup.
7. After the cleaning, place the parts (sprayhead, brewcone and basket and faucet parts) into a sink to be
sanitized.
To sanitize the disassembled parts:
A. Use a clean container to submerge all parts. Wear rubber gloves for protection.
B. Immerse in commercial Bar Tabs/Sani-Tabs sanitizing solution The solution must be warm (75°F.)
Let the parts soak for at least one minute.
8. Thoroughly rinse parts with hot water. Air dry, all parts that were sanitized.
9. After cleaning, sanitizing and drying, assemble any parts taken from the tea container.
10. Clean out airpots with a sponge brush and a mild detergent solution. To remove mineral deposits, fill
liner with vinegar and allow to soak.
Tank Temperature Check
Turn on brewer at the control panel ON/OFF button. Press and hold 3 button (see illustration, page 3)
for 5 seconds. Water Temperature will be displayed (temperature in heating tank).
