SNEAK-A-CUP® FEATURE
The Sneak-A-Cup® feature allows you to pour a cup of coffee from the carafe while the
coffee is brewing. When the carafe is removed, the brewing process is paused. Simply
replace the carafe on the “Keep Hot” carafe plate within 30 seconds and brewing will
resume automatically.
Note: If the carafe is not replaced within 30 seconds the filter basket may overflow.
COFFEE BREWING TIPS
• Stir coffee in carafe before serving to evenly distribute the flavor.
• Coffee that is poured during brewing cycle may vary in strength from the finished
brew.
• Not sure how much coffee to use? Begin by using 1 level tablespoon of medium
grind coffee for each cup of coffee to be brewed.
• For variety, add a 2-inch piece of lemon or orange peel to the coffee grounds before
brewing.
• For a special occasion, whip some heavy cream with 1 or 2 tablespoons of hazelnut,
chocolate or almond liqueur. Use to top off each cup of coffee.
• Add a 2-inch piece of vanilla bean to the sugar bowl. You’ll be surprised at how good
it tastes.
• Keep your coffeemaker scrupulously clean; you will be pleased with the flavor.
