ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS
Sneak-A-Cup®
The Sneak-A-Cup® feature allows you to pour a cup of coffee
when the brewing is still in progress. When you remove the
jug from the appliance, coffee stops dripping from the spout.
To continue brewing, simply replace the pot on the hotplate
within 30 seconds.
Coffee may overflow from the filter holder if
you fail to replace the jug within 30 seconds.
BREWING TIPS
●
Stir the coffee in the jug to get the full flavour.
●
If you sneak a cup of coffee when brewing is still in
progress, it may have different intensity of flavour than
the coffee available after the entire process has been
completed.
●
If you are not sure how much coffee you should add,
start with one spoon of medium ground coffee.
●
Never reuse paper filters. Paper may absorb the smell
of coffee and cause your coffee to smell musty in
subsequent brewing. Paper filters may become damaged
during use, letting coffee grounds pass into the freshly
brewed coffee.
●
Once opened, store your coffee bag in an airtight
container away from direct sunlight. It is best to grind the
coffee right before brewing.
●
If you leave the jug containing coffee on the hotplate,
remove coffee grounds from the filter holder as soon as
they have cooled to avoid bitter aftertaste.
●
If you want your coffee to have a special flavour, avoid
using flavoured or packed coffee. It is recommended to
buy flavouring syrup and add it directly to freshly ground
coffee right before adding milk, cream or sugar.
●
Rinse the jug and filter holder with warm water
immediately after use. This will help to preserve good
taste of your coffee in subsequent brewings.
●
Keep the appliance clean at all times. Failure to clean
your appliance may affect the taste of coffee.
●
When making ice coffee, brew double-strength coffee
using twice the amount of ground coffee you normally
use. Adding ice to the coffee will reduce its strength.
Cleaning and maintenance
Always unplug the appliance and allow it to
cool before cleaning.
●
After each brewing, discard the paper filter together with
the grounds or clean the permanent filter.
●
When cleaning, use only delicate cloths with a mild
detergent or warm water only.
Sharp cloths or sponges may scratch the
surface of the appliance.
●
Never use harsh, abrasive or alcohol-based cleaners.
Before first use it is recommended to rinse
the appliance with water containing a small
amount of vinegar.
DESCALING
Build-up of mineral deposits is a natural process occuring in
all appliances which heat water. Therefore, the coffee maker
will need periodic descaling. It is recommended to descale
the appliance every 4 6 months, depending on how often you
use it.
DESCALING SOLUTIONS
The following agents are normally used for removing mineral
deposits from the coffee maker:
●
Vinegar solution
Fill the water tank with the following solution: 1/3 of vinegar,
2/3 of water.
●
Citric acid solution.
Dissolve one sachet of citric acid in 0.5 litre of water.
●
Special liquids or tablets.
Remove the water filter with charcoal filter
before descaling.

Lift off the lid and pour one of the above solutions into the
