7. Upon completion of the brew cycle, wait at least 1 minute until the brew dripping from the filter holder
into the carafe has stopped. The carafe lid should be kept in place to facilitate safe serving and help keep
coffee at proper serving temperature. Tilt the carafe slightly and pour hot coffee very slowly, so that the
flow of the brewed coffee does not exceed the width of the spout.
8. Set the switch to OFF (O) when the carafe is empty or when unit is not in use; then remove plug from
wall outlet.
Pause and Serve
1. If you wish to serve a cup of coffee before the brew cycle is completed, simply remove carafe from
warming plate. Dripping will automatically cease. Return carafe to position on warming plate;
dripping will resume.
CAUTION: To prevent injury when utilizing pause and serve feature, replace carafe within 30 seconds after
removing during the brewing process.
2. After approximately 2 cups of coffee have been brewed, the carafe may be slowly removed and the coffee
will stop dripping.
3. The flow valve is located on the bottom of the filter holder and is activated when the carafe is removed.
This design makes it possible for you to remove the carafe and pour a cup of coffee before the entire
carafe is brewed.
IMPORTANT: When replacing the filter holder, the flow valve must be properly inserted into the front hole
of the machine, so that it can be seen as it sits on the top of the carafe lid.
4. When using this feature, make sure that the carafe is replaced under the filter holder within 30 seconds to
prevent overflow.
Brewing a Second Carafe of Coffee
1. To brew another carafe of coffee, set the switch to the OFF (O) position, if not already off. Remove the plug
from the wall outlet. It is recommended that the Coffee Maker be off and allowed to cool for 15 minutes
between cycles.
CAUTION: Failure to allow Coffee Maker to cool sufficiently could cause hot steam and spray to escape
when water is added to the water reservoir. The hot steam and spray can cause severe burns.
2. Lift the Coffee Maker lid and then lift and remove the permanent coffee filter; discard used
coffee grounds, rinse.
3. Lift the removable filter holder up and out of the Coffee Maker.
4. Rinse the glass carafe and removable filter holder in cool, clean water.
IMPORTANT: Before brewing a second carafe, always check to make sure the water level is past the 4 cup
line but never exceeds the MAX fill line. Add the desired amount of cold tap water into the water reservoir.
Follow the instructions above for setting up the machine.
Hints for Great Tasting Coffee
•
A clean Coffee Maker is essential for making great tasting coffee. Regular cleaning, as described in the
Care & Cleaning Instructions and Descaling sections of this Instruction Manual is highly recommended.
•
Always use fresh, cold water in your Coffee Maker.
•
Finer grinds, promote a fuller extraction and provide rich, full-bodied coffee. Regular grinds will require
slightly more coffee per cup to provide the strength of a finer grind.
•
Store coffee in a cool, dry place. Once coffee has been opened, keep it tightly sealed in the refrigerator to
maintain freshness.
•
For optimum coffee flavor, buy whole beans and grind them finely just before brewing.
•
Do not re-use coffee grounds since this will greatly impair coffee flavor.
•
Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor immediately after brewing.
•
Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed, black coffee is due to the extraction of oil from the coffee
grounds. Oiliness may occur more frequently if heavily roasted coffees are used. Over extraction may also
cause oiliness, indicating a need to clean your Coffee Maker.
