DRIP STOP
NOTE: If the Drip Stop is closed before you begin a
brew, the brewer will notify you with 5 beeps and
the Drip Stop light will be illuminated. Set the Drip
Stop to the open position and select your brew
concentration level.
CAN'T WAIT FOR THAT FIRST CUP TO BE READY?
When brewing a carafe, close the Drip Stop to pause the
brew cycle and pour a cup. Remember to reopen the Drip
Stop to complete the brew. (Fig. 17)
NOTE: If you forget to open the Drip Stop, the Ninja Coffee
Bar will pause the brew, and after 20 seconds it will give
you a friendly audible reminder. After 6 minutes the brew
will be canceled.
CAN'T WAIT FOR THE LAST FEW DROPS?
When the brew cycle is complete, set the Drip Stop to the
closed position to stop dripping from the brew basket.
NOTE: While the Drip Stop is closed the Drip Stop indicator
will light up in the bottom right hand corner of the control
panel.
NOTE: Remember to open the Drip Stop when you're ready
to brew again. If you forget, your Ninja Coffee Bar will give
you a friendly audible reminder.

INTELLIGENT WARMING PLATE
The Intelligent Warming Plate will automatically turn on
after a full or half carafe size of Classic or Rich brew. The
Intelligent Warming Plate will adjust the heat it produces in
order to avoid burning the coffee over time.
CAUTION: The HOT SURFACE light will illuminate
when the warming plate is hot. Do not touch the
surface when this light is illuminated.
STAY WARM BUTTON
Press the Stay Warm Button after the brew to turn the
Intelligent Warming Plate off. You can turn the Intelligent
Warming Plate back on within 2 hours of the brew by
pressing the stay warm button again if desired. (Fig.18)

BREWING COFFEE
NOTE: Each brew has a pre-infusion cycle with
varying times. The brew will begin, stop, and be
quiet for a short period of time before it begins
again. This process is used to evenly saturate your
coffee grounds.
NOTE: For a hotter coffee, rinse the coffee cup, mug or
glass carafe with hot water prior to brewing.
CAUTION: Ensure the coffee cup, mug or glass
carafe is completely empty before starting a brewing
cycle. Starting a brewing cycle with coffee in the
vessel will cause an overflow.
CUSTOM BREWS: CLASSIC, RICH OR OVER ICE BREW
Classic Brew - For a smooth, balanced flavour.
Rich Brew - For a coffee that is richer than Classic
Brew and still smooth, with more room for milk and
cream.
