Guidelines for Pulse Brew:
This feature allows tuning of the coffee flavor. The pot level should always be set first with this option OFF. Depending on your grind profile and water condi-
tions, the five Pulse Brew options help “tune” or change the coffee flavor. Filter Pack type coffees typically extract better with the A and B pulse setting. Decaf-
feinated coffees typically extract better with the B pulse setting. High-Yield coffees typically extract better with the C pulse setting. Of course, any of the A, B or
C settings may be used to suit your taste profile. There are two additional settings (D and E) that allow you to manually set the ON TIME pulses and OFF TIME.
