Tips for Best-Tasting Coffee
• All coffees are made from either arabica beans or robusta beans,
or some combination of both. Arabica beans are slightly more
expensive, but tend to produce better-tasting coffee.
• Ground coffee will become stale much faster than whole beans. If
buying preground coffee, choose a package with latest expiration
date or a smaller quantity.
• If grinding whole beans, set your coffee grinder on a fine/medium
grind. This will yield best-tasting grounds. Try to use freshly ground
coffee within about a week of grinding.
• Using a water filter, filtered water, or bottled water will yield
better-tasting coffee than tap water.
• Use approximately 1 tablespoon (15 g) of grounds for each cup of
coffee being made. To avoid overflow, use slightly less grounds
(3/4 tablespoon [11.3 g]) when brewing decaf or flavored coffees.
Also, be aware that using coffee that is ground too finely may also
cause Filter Basket to overflow.
• Make sure your Coffee Maker is clean. See “Care and Cleaning”
section.

WARNING
Burn Hazard.
If filter basket overflow occurs, unplug coffee maker and allow coffee
in filter basket to cool before removing filter basket.
To avoid hot coffee overflowing:
• When using decaffeinated coffee, do not exceed the coffee
manufacturer’s recommended serving amount. Use only the carafe
supplied with your unit or its exact replacement.
