Hints for Great Tasting Coffee
A clean Coffeemaker is essential for making great tasting coffee.
Regular cleaning, as specified in “Care and Cleaning” section on
page 8 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.

Automatic Drip Coffeemaker Use and Care Guide
Brewing Instructions (Cont.)
7. If you wish to serve a cup of coffee before brew cycle is
completed, simply remove Carafe from Warming Plate. Dripping
will automatically cease. Return Carafe to position on Warming
Plate within 20 seconds; dripping will resume.
8. Upon completion of the brew cycle, wait about one minute until
the brew dripping from the Removable Cone Filter Basket into
the Carafe has stopped. Carafe Lid should be kept in place to
facilitate safe serving and help keep coffee at proper serving
temperature.
9. To keep coffee hot, return Carafe to the Warming Plate after
serving. The Warming Plate will automatically cycle to maintain
ideal serving temperature as long as the Coffeemaker is ON.
10. Switch Coffeemaker to OFF (O) when Carafe is empty or when
unit is not in use.
11. To brew another Carafe of coffee, turn unit OFF and wait 10
minutes to allow heating element to cool.
IMPORTANT: If unit is not allowed to cool before immediate
repeated use, water placed in Water Chamber may become
overheated and a spray of steam could be released from opening,
creating a risk of burns.
Brewing a Second Pot of Coffee
As mentioned above, it is recommended that the Coffeemaker should
be in OFF (O) position for 10 minutes between cycles, in order to
allow unit to cool. While unit is in OFF position, rinse Carafe in water
and dispose of filter and coffee grounds.
Repeat brewing procedure.
