HINTS FOR GREAT TASTING COFFEE
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
-
A clean coffee maker is essential for making great tasting coffee.
Regular cleaning, as specified in “Cleaning your Coffee Maker” is highly
recommended.
-
Always use fresh, cold water in your coffee maker.
-
Fine grround coffee promotes fuller extraction and provides rich,
full-tasting coffee. Regular grind will require slightly more coffee per
cup to provide the strength of a finer grind.
-
Store coffee in a cool, dry place. Once coffee has been opened, keep
it tightly sealed in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
-
Do not re-use coffee grounds since this will greatly impair coffee flavor.
-
Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor
immediately after brewing.
-
Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed black coffee are due to the
extraction of oil from the coffee grounds. Oiliness may occur more
frequently if heavily roasted coffee is used. Over extraction may also
cause oiliness, indicating a need to clean your coffee maker.
The “clean” light will flash to indicate that the coffee maker needs to be
cleaned. The “clean” light will turn off after the clean cycle has been
completed.
