Tips for Best-Tasting Coffee
• All coffees are made from either arabica beans or robusta beans,
or some combination of both. Arabica beans are slightly more
expensive, but tend to produce better-tasting coffee.
• Ground coffee will become stale much faster than whole beans. If
buying preground coffee, choose a package with the latest expiration
date or a smaller quantity.
• If grinding whole beans, set your coffee grinder on a fine/medium
grind. This will yield the best-tasting grounds. Try to use freshly
ground coffee within about a week of grinding.

PAUSE AND SERVE:
To serve coffee during the brewing cycle, remove carafe and pour a
cup. By removing the carafe, the flow of coffee from the bottom of
the filter basket will stop.
WARNING! Burn Hazard: The carafe must be replaced within
20 seconds of being removed to prevent overflow.
NOTES:
• If the coffeemaker is not turned off manually, it will automatically
shut off in 2 hours.
• BOLD mode will require additional time to complete a brewing
cycle. Coffeemaker remembers last brew option selected. If
unplugged, coffeemaker defaults to REGULAR.
• Using a water filter, filtered water, or bottled water will yield better-
tasting coffee than tap water.
• Use approximately 1 Tablespoon (15 ml) of grounds for each cup of
coffee being made. To avoid overflow, use slightly less grounds
(3/4 tablespoon [11.2 ml]) when brewing decaf or flavored coffees.
Also, be aware that using coffee that is ground too finely may also
cause the filter basket to overflow.
• Make sure your coffeemaker is clean. See "Care and Cleaning"
sections.
