Brewers Shipped from VKI

Whether you receive a Zuma brewer as an individual assembly or incorporated into a VKI machine, it
will be shipped in the closed position with the brew chamber down. This is done to accelerate the
settling effects of the brewer's components - in particular, rubber seals, gaskets and spacers. This, in
turn, reduces the likelihood that a new brewer will require major adjustments shortly after its installation.
Please note, however, that minor adjustments may still be required prior to and/or after installation.
