• Freshly ground coffee is the key to making
coffee with more flavor and body.
• Coffee flavor and strength is a personal
preference. Vary the type of coffee beans,
amount of coffee and fineness of grind to
achieve the flavor you prefer.
• Use freshly roasted coffee beans with a
'roasted on' date to maximize flavor, not
a use-by or best before date.
• Use coffee beans between 5 and 20 days
after the 'roasted on' date for optimal
freshness.
• Store coffee beans in a dark, cool and
dry place. Vacuum seal if possible.
• Buy in small batches to reduce the
storage time.
• Once coffee is ground, it quickly loses its
flavor and aroma. For the best results, grind
beans immediately before brewing.
• Do not store beans in the bean hopper.
Place them back in an airtight container.
• When storing the appliance, run grinder
empty to clear ground beans left in
chamber.
• Run grinder for 2 seconds to purge some
coffee before each use, for maximum
freshness.
• Clean the bean hopper and conical burrs
regularly.

Follow these easy steps for a great cup:
1. Using a variable temperature kettle, heat
the appropriate volume of water to 200˚F.
This is an ideal temperature for brewing
coffee. Do not use boiling water.
2. Select grind size setting 58.
3. Select the number of cups you are brewing.
Adjust the amount of coffee to suit the
strength you prefer.
4. Place the ground coffee in the plunger
vessel.
5. Pour the heated water into the plunger in
a swirling manner to ensure all the ground
coffee is soaked and the plunger vessel is
full. The 'bloom' (expanding coffee and
gases) should reach the top of the plunger.
6. Using a timer, wait 4 minutes.
7. Using a spoon, break the 'crust' (the bloom
becomes dense and a bit hard).
8. Insert the plunger and carefully press
down.
9. Do not press too hard. Gently release
pressure by pulling up slightly and press
down again if you have pressed too hard.
