For best results, use a level tablespoon for ground
coffee measurement. Make sure you use medium
grind coffee for a perfect brew.

Adding Water and Ground Coffee
1. Lift and open the filter basket lid. For your con-
venience, you can lift out the removable filter
basket.
2. Place a 10-12 cup paper basket-style filter or a
permanent filter into the removable filter basket
(Figure 5).
NOTE: If using paper filters, it is important that
the sides of the filter fit flush against the side of
the filter basket. If filter collapse occurs, dampen
the filter before placing in the filter basket and
adding ground coffee and water.
3. Add the desired amount of coffee and gently
shake to level the coffee. See the Suggested Coffee
Measurement Chart.
4. Be sure the filter is properly centered and all the
way down in the outer filter basket.
