5. Making Coffee
Please follow the steps described in
chapter 4.
Filling the Water Tank
See chapter 4.2.
5a. Using the GoldTone Filter
A size 4 GoldTone filter comes with
the machine. It sits in the Filter Holder.
Attention: Coffee flows slower through
a GoldTone Filter than through paper
filters. Please see the chart in chapter
5c for maximum coffee amounts.
5b. Using Filter Paper
Use size 4 paper only. Always fold the
bottom and side crimps over for a
proper fit (see Fig. 5). Do not use a
filter paper inside a GoldTone Filter!
5c. How Much Coffee?
A coffee scoop comes with your coffee
maker. We recommend using one
level scoop of coffee per cup. If you
like your coffee extremely strong
never use more coffee than the
amounts indicated in the chart shown.
Using more coffee can result in an
overflow of ground coffee, above the
filter, blocking the drip stop function
and causing a mess on your counter.
5d. Turning the Coffee Maker On
Push the On/Off button (Fig. 2, N).
The red light will illuminate, indicating
that the brewing process is starting.
Caution: Never open the water
container lid during brewing.
5e. Serving Coffee
Brewing time for a full pot of coffee
takes just about 7 minutes.
When all the water is passed through,
the coffee maker will keep the coffee
hot for two hours. Then it will shut off.
If you need to keep the coffee hot
longer, just push the On/Off button
again.
5f. Pouring Coffee While Brewing
You can pull the carafe from the plat-
form during the brewing process for
approx. 20 seconds to pour a cup in
between.
5g. Brewing Small Amounts of Coffee
When brewing small amounts of coffee
(3 to 5 cups) push the 3-5 cup button
first. The green indicator light will go
on. Then push the On/Off button. The
red indicator light will go on. The
brewing process will be slowed down
to allow the coffee to reach its full
aroma.
If you pushed the 3-5 cup button by
mistake, just push it again to turn off
this function.
Important: When brewing 3-5 cups of
coffee the temperature in the carafe
will be approx. 3 to 5 degrees lower
than on a full pot.
5h. Making Multiple Carafes of Coffee
If you want to make another carafe of
coffee immediately after the first pot,
make sure the machine is off and
allow to cool down for three minutes
before refilling the water tank.
Important: Make sure the carafe is
empty before brewing.
6. Automatic Brewing at a
Pre-Programmed Time
Set the programmed time at which
you wish to brew coffee as described
in chapter 2d.
Make sure that the programmed
time is correct (AM or PM).
Hint: If you want your coffee ready by
7:15 AM, set the programmed time to
7:05, i.e. 10 minutes earlier. This way
you get the freshest and hottest
coffee possible.
