BREWING TEA

water. Ensure you do not fill past the MAX
mark. Place the outer lid, tea basket, and
inner lid.
2. Select the tea type by pressing one of TEA
buttons. The tea type determines brew
temperature. The Smart Tea Pot™ has 4
preset tea types recommended for optimal
brewing of Green, White, Oolong, or Black

This product is not calibrated for commercial
or scientific use. Temperatures may vary ± 5˚C,
which is within range for optimal brewing for
each tea variety.
3. Start heating by pressing START/CANCEL
button. The Smart Tea Pot™ will start
heating.
4. Once the selected brew temperature is
reached it will beep 3 times. Open the tea
basket lid and use a tea spoon
(approximately 5g) to fill the basket with tea
leaves. As a general guide, use 1 teaspoon of
tea leaves per cup / 250ml of water,
however this will depend on the instructions
on tea packaging and your personal
preference. Re-place the tea basket lid.

5. Start steeping by pressing one of TEA
STRENGTH buttons. If you select
MEDIUM strength the Smart Tea Pot™ will
steep for preset steep time shown in the
below table. MILD will shorten it by 1
minute and STRONG will lengthen it by 1
minute.
NOTE
To customise steeping time press CUSTOM
button several times consecutively. Each time
you press it will add 1 minute. You can adjust
the time between 1-5 minutes.
6. Once brewing cycle is complete, the Smart
Tea Pot™ will beep once. Open the tea
basket lid and remove the tea basket. Then
close the lid. Your tea is ready now. The
Smart Tea Pot™ will keep the tea warm until
you are ready to drink.
NOTE
Keep warm will last for 30 minutes after
the tea is brewed. It will continue even
when the jug is re-placed after serving. It
stops if you press START/CANCEL button
or the kettle is not placed on the power
base for more than 5 minutes. To avoid
damaging the machine, we recommend to
stop keep warm when there is no liquid.
BOILING WATER
Remove the tea basket and fill the glass jug
with water. Close the jug with the lid. Press
BOIL button to select boiling cycle. Press
START/CANCEL button to start. When
finished, there will be one long beep.
