HOW TO MAKE YOUR FIRST POT OF COFFEE
Suggested Coffee Measurement Chart:
To Brew
Ground Coffee
1 level tablespoon (tbsp) = 5 gr./0.17 oz.
1 cup = 5 fl. oz. of brewed coffee
Use more or less coffee to suit your taste.
5 cups
6 tbs.
2 cups
3 tbs.
*Using fine coffee or decaf may cause overflow.
1. Fill the carafe with fresh cold water to the desired
level. 1 Mr. Coffee “cup” is equivalent to 5 fluid ounces. Pour into Water
Reservoir.
NOTE:
Some water will be absorbed into the coffee grounds and water
filter during the brewing process.
2. Insert and line the brew basket with a standard basket-style paper filter
(sold separately) or reusable filter (if included).
3. Referencing the chart above, scoop the equivalent amount of coffee
grounds into the filter using a tablespoon.
4. You are ready to switch your coffeemaker on.
5. Once finished using the coffeemaker please flip switch to off.
6. Enjoy consistently fresh coffee every time!
WATER FILTRATION SYSTEM
The Mr. Coffee® carbon-based water filter (sold separately, unless included)
helps remove up to 97% of the chlorine from the water and improves the
taste of your coffee. To use the water filtration system in your Mr. Coffee®
coffeemaker, please follow these steps:
1. Align the red indicator on the frame to the letter that corresponds with the
month that you are using the disk for the first time. This serves to remind
you to change the disk every month (approx. 50 brewing cycles). To
change the disk, remove the used disk, insert new disk into the frame.
NOTE:
For optimum results, use the water filtration system with a
permanent filter.
2. Rinse the water filter in fresh water before use.
3. Follow Adding Water and Coffee Instructions.
4. Position the filter on top of the brew basket, and brew according to your
particular model’s brewing instructions.
5. When you are done brewing your coffee, rinse the water filter with fresh
water. Do not put your water filter in the dishwasher.
HOW TO BREW THE PERFECT CUP
Paper Filters vs. Reusable Filters
PAPER FILTERS:
To achieve a smoother, less bitter cup of coffee, use a paper
filter. It will be most effective in trapping bitter sediments.
REUSABLE FILTERS:
For a more robust and full taste, use a reusable filter. It
will allow the coffee’s full flavor to fill your cup. Reusable filters have tiny holes
that allow rich coffee oils to brew through.
