Platinum Plus — Model B79 Brewer
helpful hints
1. Plug Brewer into its own grounded outlet.
If the electric circuit is overloaded with other
appliances, your Brewer may not function
properly. The Brewer should be operated on
its own circuit, separate from other appliances.
2. Keep your Brewer turned “ON”.
To brew a fresh cup of coffee, tea or hot cocoa
anytime you want, keep your Brewer turned
“ON” all the time. However, the Brewer is fully
programmable so you can set it to turn on and
off automatically to match your schedule.
Or, if you prefer, set the Brewer to automatically
turn off after a period of time. Follow the simple
instructions on pages 11–14 to find the settings
that are most convenient for you.
3. For the best tasting gourmet coffee, tea or
hot cocoa, Keurig recommends using bottled
or filtered water.
Water quality varies from place to place. If
you notice an undesirable taste in your cup
of coffee, such as chlorine or other mineral
tastes, we recommend you consider using
bottled water or water from a filtration system.
For best results, carefully follow manufacturer’s
instructions when using any water filtration
system.
4. Customize the size, flavor & brew that’s
perfect for you.
With the choice of over 200 varieties of K-Cup
®
portion packs and 5 brew sizes (Extra-Small
Cup-3.25 oz., Small Cup-5.25 oz., Small Mug-
7.25 oz., Large Mug-9.25 oz., and Travel Mug-
11.25 oz.) your Keurig
®
Brewer gives you endless
options to customize the size, flavor and brew
that’s perfect for you. For a strong, intense cup,
select an Extra Bold portion pack (with up to
30% more ground coffee than regular varieties)
and brew size that’s right for you. The smaller
the brew size, the more intense flavor in your
cup. The larger the brew size, the less intense
flavor in your cup.
5. Remove K-Cup
®
portion pack after use.
Please see page 7 for brewing instructions.
6. Brewing into a travel mug.
To brew into a travel mug, simply remove the
Drip Tray Assembly and place the travel mug
on the Drip Tray Base.
7. De-scale Brewer regularly.
Please see pages 15 and 16 for instructions.
