Finer grinds, such as drip and ADC coffee, promote fuller extrac-
tion and provide rich, full-bodied coffee. Regular grind will
require slightly more coffee per cup to provide the strength of a
finer grind.
Store coffee in a cool, dry place. Once coffee has been opened,
keep it tightly sealed in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
For optimum coffee, buy whole beans and grind them finely just
before brewing.
Do not re-use coffee grounds since this will greatly impair
coffee flavor.
Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor
immediately after brewing.
Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed, black coffee is due to
the extraction of oil from the coffee grounds. Oiliness may occur
more frequently if heavily roasted coffees are used. Overextraction
may also cause oiliness, indicating a need to clean your Coffee
Maker.

Care and Cleaning
Always make sure Coffee Maker is unplugged and Warming Plate is
cool before attempting to clean. After daily use, the Carafe should be
washed in hot, sudsy water. Wipe exterior with a damp cloth to remove
superficial stains. For stubborn stains, use a nylon or plastic pad. Do
not use metal scouring pads or abrasive cleansers.
Special cleaning of your Coffee Maker is recommended at least once a
month, depending on frequency of use and quality of water used in
the unit. If water in your area is especially hard, the following cleaning
procedure should be performed every two weeks, since minerals in
water can detract from the flavor of the coffee and possibly lengthen
brew time.
