TIPS AND HINTS
• If you buy large portions of beans, separate
them into one- or two-week portions and store
them in airtight containers in the freezer.
Preserve freshness by minimizing exposure
to air, light, and moisture. Once beans are
removed from the freezer, keep them in a
sealed container at room temperature, since
damaging condensation can occur when beans
move from cold to warmer temperatures.
• Some experts feel freezing dark-roast beans
can cause oils to coagulate; others disagree.
You’ll have to decide that one for yourself!
CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
COMPLETELY CLEAN AND DRY
ALL PARTS AFTER EVERY USE
Always turn coffeemaker OFF and remove the
plug from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
Open the reservoir lid*. Remove the grinder
basket lid by using the recessed area on each
side of the lid. Then remove grinder basket.
Open filter basket door. Remove filter basket
cover, filter basket and filter basket holder. The
grinder basket, grinder basket lid, filter basket
and filter basket cover can be washed in warm,
soapy water and rinsed thoroughly, or cleaned in
the upper rack of the dishwasher. Dry all parts
after every use.
Do not put any water in the
unit once the grinder basket has been
removed. Wipe the area under the grinder
basket with a damp cloth. If water gets into
the grinder motor, the motor may become
damaged and may malfunction.
Once clean,
reverse the above steps. Remove the carafe from
the resting plate. Discard any remaining coffee.
The carafe and lid can be washed in warm,
soapy water and rinsed thoroughly, or placed in
a dishwasher.
The carafe and carafe lid should be placed on
the upper rack only. Do not use scouring agents
or harsh cleansers on any part of the
coffeemaker. Never immerse base unit in water
or other liquids. To clean base, simply wipe with
a clean, damp cloth and dry before storing.
Wipe resting plate with a clean, damp cloth.
Never use rough, abrasive materials or cleansers
to clean the resting plate. Do not dry the inside
of the water reservoir with a cloth, as lint may
remain.
BREW PAUSE
™
FEATURE
Our Brew Pause
™
feature interrupts the flow
of coffee from the basket to let you pour that
first cup mid-brew. Be aware that using this
feature will weaken the flavor strength of the
finished pot, because the flavor profile of
coffee brewed at the beginning of the cycle
differs from coffee made at the end.
NOTE:
Removing carafe for more than 20
seconds may cause filter basket to overflow.
