Water temperature
Notice: Too long steeping time can result in more bitterness and a less
balanced flavour. We recommend experimenting to find your best personal
taste. Japanese green teas generally taste best at 1 - 2 minutes while
Chinese green teas (bigger leaves) seem to prefer 2 - 3 minutes.

USING THE WATER & TEA COOKER
Place on table (Figure 6.)
You can place the glass jar without base directly on the table to have fresh
tea where you need it.
Do not touch the metal bottom (Figure 7.)
Do not touch the metal bottom from the glass jar in case that is it still hot.
The ring keeps the distance to the table, so you are able to place the glass
jar directly on the table.
CLEANING + DESCALING
IMPORTANT:
Clean your appliance frequently to avoid calcification and to
guarantee a long life with low energy consumption.
Cleaning the base
• Unplug the appliance first.
• Clean the outside of the induction base with a soft cloth moistened with
warm water and some mild cleaning agent.
• Do not use chemicals, steel wool, or abrasive cleaners to clean the
inside or outside of the glass jar as these may scratch the surface.
Cleaning + descaling the glass jar (Figure 8.)
• Cleaning is an inherent part of maintenance of the equipment because
the mineral deposits, especially from hard water cause scaling which
gradually slow down the process of heating.
• Scale is not harmful to your health but it may give your drink a powdery
taste. The filter spout prevents scale particles from ending up in your drink.
• The glass jar is dish washer safe. Put it upside down into a dish washer.
Place the lid separate in the dish washer to descale the filter spout.
