PROPERTIES OF YOUR DESIGN BREW ADVANCED
Using the DESIGN BREW ADVANCED, you get fresh, drip filtered coffee in manu-
ally filtered quality and outstanding short time. Even 1.25 Litres (approx. 10 cups)
will be heated to the optimum brewing temperature of 96°C (203°F; at the brewing
arm) and transferred into the filter basket in approx. 6 minutes. 8 holes in the brew-
ing arm distribute the hot water on the coffee powder in the filter bag, thus ensuring
to evenly wet the coffee powder. Thanks to the short extraction time, acidity and bit-
terness can be reduced.
Just as with common drip coffee makers, you spread out usual coffee filter bags in
the filter basket of the appliance and fill in your coffee powder.
KEEP WARM FUNCTION
Immediately after starting the brewing cycle the warming plate will be heated to pre-
heating the carafe. When using the provided carafe and leaving it on the warming
plate after brewing, the coffee will be kept at approx. 80 - 85°C (175 -185°F).
Note:
When using other containers than the provided carafe, the coffee temperature
within your container depends on type, shape and material of the container used.
Note:
You cannot switch on the warming plate separately without starting a brewing
cycle and therefore without filling water into the water tank.
AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF
To save energy and for your safety and convenience, if you might possibly have
forgotten to switch off the appliance, the appliance will switch off automatically 40
minutes after starting the brewing cycle. In this case, the ON/OFF button will go out
and the warming plate will cool down. If you wish to keep your coffee warm for an
elongated time, fill your coffee into a vacuum flask immediately after brewing and
switch off (press the ON/OFF button) and unplug the appliance.
LCD DISPLAY
The LCD display will assist you, when preparing the appliance for timer operation.
Usually, the current setting of the internal clock (“CLOCK”) will be displayed. The
appliance starts at “0:00”, every time you connect it to the power supply. Using the
time setting buttons “HOUR” and “MINUTE”, you can enter the actual time. However,
this will be necessary only, when using timer-controlled operation. In this case, the
