Sanitation Requirements
Your Curtis Combo Brewer is Factory Pre-Set and Ready to Go... Right out of the Carton.
Following are the Factory Settings for your Coffee/Tea Brewing System:
• Brew Temperature = 204°F
• Brew Volume = Set to dispensing vessel requirements
Generally there will never be a reason to change the G3/Gold Cup Series default settings. However, should you need to make slight
adjustments to meet your brewing needs, programming instructions are provided later in this manual.
System Requirements:
• Water Source 20 – 90 PSI. Minimum flow rate of ½ gpm (1 gpm preferred flow rate).
• Electrical: See attached schematic for standard model or visit www.wilburcurtis.com for your model.
Equipment to be installed to comply with applicable federal, state, or local plumbing/electrical codes having jurisdiction.

SETUP STEPS

The unit should be level (left to right and front to back), located on a solid counter top. Connect a water line from the water filter to the
brewer. NOTE: Some type of water filtration device must be used to maintain a trouble-free operation. (In areas with extremely hard
water, we suggest that a sedimentary and taste & odor filter be installed.) This will prolong the life of your brewing system and enhance
coffee and tea quality.
NSF International requires the following water connection:
1. A quick disconnect or additional coiled tubing (at least 2x the depth of the unit) so that the machine can be moved for
cleaning underneath.
2. In some areas an approved backflow prevention device may be required between the brewer and water supply.
1. A 1/4" Flare has been supplied for water line connection. Use tubing sized sufficiently to provide a minimum of ½ gpm (1 gpm is
preferred).
2. Connect the unit to an appropriate electrical power circuit.
3. Turn on the toggle (STANDBY/ON) switch behind the unit. The heating tank will start to fill. When the water level in the tank rises
to the correct volume, the heating element will energize automatically. With the G3/Gold Cup Series there is no danger of element
burnout due to an unfilled heating tank.
4. The heating tank will require 20 to 30 minutes to reach operating temperature (204°F) as indicated by the READY-TO-BREW
LCD readout.
5. Important: Run one full TEA brewcycle first, before running a coffee brewcycle to purge water lines and valves of air. Five
seconds of pulsing dilution water at the beginning of each TEA brewcycle is normal pre-programmed operating behavior.
