Decalcification
To keep your Iced Tea Maker operating efficiently, it is important to decalcify at
least every 2-4 months depending on local water hardness or when brewing a
pitcher of iced tea takes more than 15 minutes.
1. Before decalcifying, remove the permanent filter from the machine.
2. Dissolve 1 oz. (28 g) of Capresso Cleaning Solution (or other descaling
agent) with 32 oz. (1 L) of water and pour mixture into water tank.
3. Place the empty pitcher with the lid closed underneath the filter holder.
4. Turn the machine on and allow the descaling solution pass through.
5. Once the Iced Tea Maker automatically turns off, remove the pitcher, empty
and rinse a few times with fresh cold water.
6. Rinse the filter holder thoroughly with fresh water and place back into the
machine.
7. Let the Iced Tea Maker cool down for a few minutes.
8. Fill the water tank with fresh cold water and brew through machine to fully rinse.
9. Once the Iced Tea Maker has automatically shut off, empty the pitcher.
10. Rinse by operating the appliance with fresh water at least 2-3 times after
descaling.
Troubleshooting
Iced Tea too weak…
• Add more tea bags or more loose tea to permanent filter.
• Adjust strength selector to extra strong (slide control to right position).
Drip time too long…
• Adjust strength selector to left to shorten brew time and lower strength.
• Decalcify machine to remove limescale from internal brewing components.
Follow instructions in Decalcification.
Iced Tea tastes bad…
• Iced tea maker needs cleaning, following instructions in Cleaning & Maintenance.
• Poor tea quality and freshness.
• Poor water quality (use filtered or bottled water).
Tea overflows from permanent filter…
