BREWING STATUS GAUGE
The gauge shows the status of your coffee machine.
• The pointer will first show the brewing stage as your coffee is being made. The pointer will move
slowly clockwise within the first (long) segment during brewing.
• Once brewing has finished, the pointer will move to the
0

long the coffee has been kept warm by the hot plate (0 to 40 mins). After about 40 minutes,
chemical changes will affect the taste of the coffee.
