Coffee
6.Fill the filter with medium-ground filter coffee. We suggest two rounded
teaspoons of medium-ground coffee per cup.
7.Close the lid.
Tea
8.Don’t use the filter for tea. You’ll never be able to remove the tea/coffee
taint from it. There are just too many nooks and crannies.
9.Remove the filter and put one teabag per flask into the filter holder.
10.Close the lid
Tea and coffee together
11.If you want to be really awkward, you can actually make tea and coffee at
the same time, but you’re going to have to put up with instant (or find
somewhere that sells coffee bags).
12.Put a heaped teaspoon of good quality instant coffee in one flask, a teabag
in the other, and use the coffee maker purely as a water heater.
13.Don’t fit the filter, and don’t put anything in the filter holder.
14.Close the lid.
Flask(s)
15.Rinse the flask(s) out with hot water, to pre-heat it/them.
16.Put the inner lid(s) on the flask(s), and stand it/them on the drip tray.
17.There are 2 nozzles. If you’re making 1 flask, stand it in the middle, under
both nozzles. If you’re making 2 flasks, stand each one under a nozzle.
18.Plug the coffee maker into the power socket (switch the socket on, if
appropriate).
19.Press the switch. It’ll light up, the water will start to heat, and shortly
afterwards, tea or coffee will start dripping into the flask(s).
Finished?
20.When brewing has finished, it’ll go quiet, it’ll switch itself off, and the
light will go out.
Done?Unplug the coffee maker from the power socket (switch the socket
off first, if appropriate) and let it cool down fully before cleaning.
More? Let the coffee maker cool down for 10 minutes before refilling.
Important:Opening the lid before the coffee maker has cooled down may
release steam, creating a scald hazard.
Drinking
21.Remove the outer lid, and drink through the big oblong hole. The little
round hole lets air in and out. If you block it, you won’t be able to drink.
22.Put the outer lid on again if you’re going to leave it for a bit, or if you’re
moving.
23.The insulated flask will keep your drink in good condition for about half an
hour. Any longer and it won’t be at its best — pour it away.
24.Don’t reheat coffee or tea — they’ll taste bitter.
25.Don’t pass coffee or tea through the coffee maker again. Apart from the
risk of damaging the coffee maker, the liquid will be undrinkable.
