BLOOMING
• When coffee is roasted, CO
the bean. Coffee grounds release this CO
when hot water hits them, and this is called
"blooming". Your Brewer can automatically
adjust bloom time by controlling the water
flow. Blooming can have an impact on the
aromas and flavors of the brewed cup. If the
coffee is overly bitter shorten bloom time,
and if it's sour make it a little longer.
PRE-HEATING
• Pre-heat the carafe or cup for best results. A
pre-heated carafe or cup will help maintain
the coffee's optimal temperature and keep
coffee hotter for longer. Fill with hot water for
about 30 seconds then discard the water.
WATER QUALITY
• Fresh, good-tasting water is essential for a
perfect cup. If the water contains excessive
sediment, or has an 'off' taste or odor, we
recommend using filtered water.
ICED COFFEE
• Iced coffee is at its best when the coffee is
brewed strong because the coffee is diluted
by the melting ice cubes. To achieve great
Iced coffee we recommend brewing in OVER
ICE mode. Fill the tank ensuring the water
level does not exceed the 20oz level.
• Fill the brew basket with twice the amount
of coffee you'd normally use for regular
brewed coffee.
• Brew into the carafe.
• Once the brewing cycle is complete, transfer
the coffee to a heatproof pitcher and let cool
to room temperature. Refrigerate until cold,
at least 2 hours or overnight. Fill glasses with
ice cubes. Pour the coffee into the glasses,
filling them to within 1.5" (4cm) of the rim.
Top each glass with cream, milk, syrups or
sweeteners as desired.
NOTE
If using granulated sugar as a sweetener, add
while the coffee is hot to encourage the sugar
to completely dissolve.

COLD BREW
Your Brewer will produce a maximum of
20oz of Cold Brew. Due to the long duration
(typically 4-14 hours) of the brewing process we
recommend setting the machine up overnight so
the Cold Brew will be ready in the morning.
