How to Use Carafe Side (cont.)
PAUSE AND SERVE:
To serve coffee during the brewing cycle, remove carafe and pour a
cup. By removing the carafe, the flow of coffee from the bottom of
the filter basket will stop.
WARNING! Burn Hazard. The carafe must be replaced within
20 seconds of being removed to prevent overflow.
NOTES:
• If the coffeemaker is not turned off manually, it will automatically
shut off in 2 hours.
BOLD mode will require additional time to complete a brewing
cycle. Coffeemaker remembers last brew option selected. If
unplugged, coffeemaker defaults to REGULAR.
Tips for Best-Tasting Coffee
• All coffees are made from either arabica beans or robusta beans,
or some combination of both. Arabica beans are slightly more
expensive, but tend to produce better-tasting coffee.
• Ground coffee will become stale much faster than whole beans. If
buying preground coffee, choose a package with the latest expiration
date or a smaller quantity.
• If grinding whole beans, set your coffee grinder on a fine/medium
grind. This will yield the best-tasting grounds. Try to use freshly
ground coffee within about a week of grinding.
• Using a water filter, filtered water, or bottled water will yield better-
tasting coffee than tap water.
• Use approximately 1 tablespoon of grounds for each cup of
coffee being made. To avoid overflow, use slightly less grounds
(3/4 tablespoon [11 ml]) when brewing decaf or flavored coffees.
Also, be aware that using coffee that is ground too finely may also
cause the filter basket to overflow.
• Make sure your coffeemaker is clean. See “Care and Cleaning”
sections.
