Operating Instructions
Before First Use (cont.)
4. Clean the inside of the Coffeemaker by brewing two full carafes of
tap water (see "Brewing Instructions" below). Do not use coffee for
this initial cleaning. Note: at the end of first cycle, turn
Coffeemaker off and wait ten minutes. Turn unit on and brew
second carafe of fresh water.
Coffee Filters
Cone-shaped paper filters are available locally at grocery stores and
where Coffeemakers are sold. Standard #4 filters should be used.
The use of basket-style paper filters is not recommended, since they
do not conform to the shape of the Filter Basket and may cause
coffee to back up and spill over during brewing.
Hints For Great Tasting Coffee
A clean Coffeemaker is essential for making great tasting coffee.
Regular cleaning, as specified in "Care and Cleaning of your
Coffeemaker" on page 10 is highly recommended.
Always use fresh, cold water in your Coffeemaker.
Finer grinds, such as drip and ADC coffee, promote fuller extraction
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 Coffeemaker.
