The machine is now ready for use.
If the machine is ever fully drained this process must be repeated.
BREWING COFFEE
Use fine grain coffee which has been ground for use with filter brewers.
Keep the jugs/flasks and basket filter clean
Put the correct amount of ground coffee into the filter paper. Your coffee supply company may have
pack sizes to suit the brews of your new brewer; if not, as an approximate guide for your first brews:
Glass Jug
Flask
Water Volume
1.8L
2.2L
Coffee
65-90 grams
75-110 grams
Level off the surface of coffee by gently shaking the filter bowl. Slide the coffee filter bowl into the
guide rails and push fully home.
Pour a jug/flask (1.8l/2.2l) of water into the tank (cold water reservoir).
Plug the machine into the power supply and switch on the power button. The switch indicator and
‘Brewing’ light will illuminate and the buzzer will sound for 1sec. The boiler will heat up and water
will start to flow through the machine.
At the end of the process the ‘Brew Ready’ light will illuminate and the sounder will sound. (2 short
pulses).
The coffee is now ready to serve.
The upper hot plate is independent of the brewing process and can be turned on or off when required
SPOIL INDICATOR
The ‘Brew Ready’ light will automatically turn off after 20 minutes from the completion of a brew and this can
be used as a spoil indicator to signal if the prepared coffee has passed it’s usable duration.
MAINTENANCE
This machine has been designed to give many years of trouble free service.
The only regular maintenance required is occasional de-scaling.
In common with all coffee brewer manufacturers, service calls resulting from lime scale are not covered by
warranty. Fitting a scale reducer is recommended, especially in hard water areas. This can reduce the build-
up of scale but may not stop it altogether. The machine should be de-scaled regularly. (3-6 months) The
frequency that de-scaling is required depends on the local water supply; hard water areas need more attention.
The ‘Descale’ indicator is set to trigger every 300 cycles as a reminder for the user to descale the machine.
The machine will continue to operate but the ‘Descale’ light will not reset until the ‘Descale Reset’ button is
depressed and held during a power up sequence.
DESCALING PROCEDURE
Dissolve the recommended amount of scale remover (see instructions for scale remover) in one litre of
warm water (approx 60 – 70
C).
Slide an empty filter basket into the basket guide rails and place an empty jug/flask under it.
Carefully pour the solution into the tank (cold water reservoir) and switch on the machine. The
solution will now run through the heating system and discharge into the jug/flask. Leave the lid of the
tank open.
Switch off the machine after one minute.
