Descaling
Special cleaning of your 8-Cup Pour Over Coffee Maker is recommended depending on the
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 more frequently, since minerals in water
can detract from the flavor of the coffee and possibly lengthen brew time. While brewing, if
the BREW/CLEAN power indicator light begins to alternate from red to white, then the 8-Cup
Pour Over Coffee Maker should be descaled.
1. Fill decanter with 1 part white vinegar to 2 parts cold water. Pour water and vinegar solution
into the water reservoir.
2. Press and hold the BREW/OFF power button for 2 seconds until the BREW/CLEAN power
indicator light illuminates solid red. The 8-Cup Pour Over Coffee Maker will begin the CLEAN
cycle until all water has been circulated and the water reservoir is empty. The BREW/CLEAN
power indicator light will turn off when the descaling operation is complete.
NOTE:
Press the BREW/OFF power button at any time during the CLEAN cycle to turn the
8-Cup Pour Over Coffee Maker OFF. When liquid stops dripping from the shower head into
the decanter, remove the decanter from the warming plate and allow liquid to cool for 15
minutes.
3. Rinse the unit by brewing a full decanter of cold water.
4. At end of BREW cycle, press the BREW button to turn the 8-Cup Pour Over Coffee Maker
OFF. Discard water in the decanter. Wash decanter, permanent coffee filter, and filter
holder in hot sudsy water. Dry parts thoroughly.
5. When Coffee Maker has cooled, wipe exterior with a dry cloth.
Storing Instructions
1. Unplug unit and allow to cool.
2. Store the 8-Cup Pour Over Coffee Maker in its box or in a cool, dry place.
3. Never store unit while it is still plugged in.
