Your Curtis Gemini is Factory Pre-Set and Ready to Go… Right from the Box.
Following are the Factory Settings for your interLock Coffee Brewing Systems:
• Brew Temperature = 200°F
• Water Bypass = On LARGE & MEDIUM brew only
• Brew Volume = Large set to vessel requirements.
• Energy Save Mode = Off
System Requirements:
• Water Source 20 – 90 PSI (Minimum Flow Rate of 1 GPM)
• Electrical: See attached schematic for standard model or visit www.wilburcurtis.com for your model.
SETUP STEPS
The unit should be located on a solid counter top and leveled (left to right and front to back),. Connect a water line from the water filter to
the brewer.
NOTE: A water filtration system must be installed to maintain a trouble-free operation. (In areas with extremely hard water, we suggest that
a sedimentary and taste & odor filter be installed.) This will prolong the life of your brewing system and enhance coffee quality.

Important Notes/Cautions – from the factory
Sanitation Requirements
1. A 3/8”Flare x 3/8” Male pipe elbow is supplied with the brewer for water line connection. Use tubing sized sufficiently to provide a
minimum of 1.0 GPM.
2. Connect the unit to an appropriate electrical power circuit.
3. Turn on the toggle (STANDBY/ON) switch behind the unit. The heating tank will start to fill. When the water level in the tank rises to the
correct volume, the heating elements will energize automatically. With ADS Systems there is no danger of element burnout caused by
an empty tank.
4. The heating tank will require 20 to 30 minutes to reach operating temperature (200°F), indicated when READY TO BREW is displayed
on the LCD screen.
5. Prior to brewing, dispense 12 ounces of hot water through the hot water faucet.
6. Brew a cycle of at least 12 ounces, to purge the water lines of any air that may be trapped after filling.
