Why is there a
difference?
A cold ceramic
mug will steal heat
from the coffee as
it warms itself up.
If the mug is
already warm, it
will not steal as
much heat from
the coffee.
Just like your
cold mug, cold
milk lowers the
temperature of
your coffee.
The Ninja
double wall cup is
designed to retain
initial coffee temp
better than a
ceramic cup.
Unlike a ceramic
mug, a thinner
paper cup
does not steal
substantial heat
from the coffee.
WOULD YOU LIKE A HOTTER COFFEE?
Have you ever wondered why you get paper cups on the go? The type of cup you brew into can drastically influence the drinking temperature!
FILLING THE BREW BASKET WITH COFFEE
For best results, use the below measurements of ground coffee
for each size brew–the amount of ground coffee for each size will
remain the same for any brew type that you select. For example, if
you select Cup and Classic Brew, you will use the same amount of
coffee grounds as if you select Cup and Specialty Brew.
CAUTION: The maximum capacity for ground coffee
is 12 rounded tablespoons or 6 Ninja Carafe Scoops.
Exceeding this amount or using fine ground coffee
may cause overflow.
1
Open the brew basket by sliding the brew basket out of the
brewer.
(Fig. 13)
NOTE:
The brew basket can be removed from the brewer by
lifting the brew basket at a slight upward angle (similar to a
cabinet drawer).
NOTE:
Check for any loose grounds that may be left in the
brew basket. Remove and rinse the brew basket if needed.
2
Place the permanent filter or a #4 paper cone filter in
the brew basket. If using a paper cone filter, remove the
permanent filter, fold along the seams, open it fully, and
firmly press it into the brew basket making sure that it is fully
seated.
(Fig. 14)
3
Use the Ninja Scoop
(Fig. 15a)
and follow the measurements
below to fill the filter. These measurements are based on level
scoops—adjust to your preferred taste.
(Fig. 15)
We suggest
using a medium grind size if grinding whole beans.
