Hints for Great Tasting Coffee
• A clean Coffee Maker is essential for making great tasting coffee. Regular cleaning,
as described in the Care & Cleaning Instructions and Descaling sections of this Instruction
Manual is highly recommended.
• Always use fresh, cold water in 8-Cup Pour Over Coffee Maker.
• Finer grinds promote fuller extraction and provide rich, full-bodied coffee. Regular grinds will
require slightly more coffee per cup to provide the strength of a finer grind.
• Store coffee beans or ground coffee in a cool, dry place. Once coffee has been opened,
keep it tightly sealed in the refrigerator or freezer to maintain freshness.
• For optimum coffee flavor, buy whole beans and grind them to your liking,
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 are due to the extraction of oil
from the coffee grounds. Oiliness may occur more frequently if heavily roasted coffee beans
are used. Over extraction may also cause oiliness, indicating a need to clean your
8-Cup Pour Over Coffee Maker.
