Helpful Hints for Brewing
• Always use fresh, cold water for brewing. In areas with hard
water or where water contains a high mineral content, use cold
filtered water for optimal coffee taste.
• For best results, use Melitta
®
#2 paper cone filters and Melitta
®
Premium Fine Grind Roast Coffee.
• The markings on the Water Level Indicator reflect the quantity
of fresh water to be used. The quantity of brewed coffee is less
because the coffee grounds absorb water.
