• Great tasting coffee starts with fresh water. Where local water is of poor quality, you
may wish to use bottled or filtered water. Distilled water is not recommended.
• If you buy large portions of beans, separate them into one- or two-week portions
and store them in tinted, airtight containers. Refrigeration is not recommended since
condensation tends to form on beans whenever the container is opened.
• The best cup of coffee comes from coffee beans that are properly ground just
before brewing. Be sure to select a medium grind, which is ideal for automatic drip
coffee makers. We recommend using the OXO On Conical Burr Coffee Grinder with
Integrated Scale (#8710200).
NOTES ON TEA AND TEMPERATURE:
Correct water temperature is essential for extracting the best flavors out of tea. Different
types of tea require different water temperatures. The following is a guide to help choose

different boiling points.
Clogging and backing up of water and/or coffee in the
filter basket can occur under any or a combination of any
of the following conditions: the use of coffee ground too
finely, using two or more paper filters, a blockage to the
drain hole of the brew basket, the stainless steel carafe
improperly installed or missing.
The heating element shuts off once brewing is complete.
The machine turns completely off after the freshness timer
times out (60 minutes after brewing).
