FOR THE PERFECT CUP OF COFFEE ELEMENT 1: WATER Coffee is 98% water. The quality of that water is as important as the quality of your coffee.
If water doesn't taste good from the tap, it won't taste good in your coffee. Cuisinart includes a charcoal water filter to remove chlorine, bad tastes and odors,
for the purest coffee flavor, every time you brew. ELEMENT 2: COFFEE While coffee is 98% water, all of the flavor comes from the beans. To achieve the
same great taste you enjoy at a coffee bar, you need to use the same quality of coffee. If you choose to grind your own beans, buy them fresh and whole.
Buy only about a two-week supply at a time, because once the bean is broken, its flavor degrades quickly. UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS 1. Place the box on
a large, sturdy, flat surface. 2. Remove the instruction book and any other literature.
3. Turn the box so that the back side of the Coffeemaker is down and slide the Coffeemaker from the box. 4. After the Coffeemaker has been removed, place
the box out of the way and lift off the packing material. 5. Grasp the carafe by its handle, remove it from the heating plate, and remove the polybag. 6. Remove
the polybag covering the Coffeemaker. Save all packing materials in case you have to ship the machine in the future. KEEP ALL PLASTIC BAGS AWAY
FROM CHILDREN.
ELEMENT 3: GRIND The grind is critical for proper flavor extraction. If the grind is too fine, over-extraction and bitterness will result. Too fine a grind may
also clog the filter. If grind is too coarse, the water will pass through too quickly and the maximum flavor will not be extracted. When grinding your own
beans, we recommend a medium-fine grind. ELEMENT 4: PROPORTION Coffee that is too strong or too weak is always a disappointment. Follow the
recommended portions of ground coffee in the instructions under Brewing Coffee, and later adjust the amount to suit your taste. 4 Coffeemaker FEATURES
