BREW VOLUMES AND MEASUREMENTS
Each size and brew style produces a different
amount of coffee to optimize strength and flavor.
NOTE:
Adjust to your preferred taste. More
scoops result in stronger coffee but slightly
lower volumes, fewer scoops result in weaker
coffee and slightly higher volumes. Use
fewer scoops of decaffeinated coffee to
prevent overflow. Use a medium-sized grind
if grinding whole beans. Grinding beans too
finely may cause the brew basket to overflow.

MEASURING YOUR COFFEE GROUNDS
For best results, use the measurements on the
Ninja Smart Scoop™ or in the chart to determine
how much ground coffee to use for each brew
size. Always use level scoops when measuring
ground coffee. The amount of ground coffee
for each size will remain the same for any brew
type you select. For example, if you select
Cup
and
Classic
, you will use the same amount of
coffee grounds as if you were to select
Cup
and
Over Ice
.

NOTE:
The coffee grounds will absorb some
of the water that is brewed; this will cause
slight variability in brew volumes than what
is stated below.
IMPORTANT:
The
light on the base
of the brewer will illuminate only when
the warming plate is hot and will remain
illuminated until the plate has cooled down.
TIME & TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
You can adjust how long the Intelligent Warming
Plate remains on (up to 4 hours) and/or set the

By default, the Intelligent Warming Plate is set
to remain on for 2 hours and is set to medium.
To change the time/temperature settings of the
warming plate, follow these instructions:
1
Press and hold WARM until the clock begins to
flash the current warming time.
2
Turn the dial to increase the time in 15-minute
increments up to 4 hours or decrease the time
to 0 hours. Press WARM or START BREW to
set the new time.
3
. Next, the clock will display the current
warming plate temperature. To keep the same
temperature, press WARM or START BREW. To
change the temperature, turn the dial and press
WARM or START BREW for the temperature
to lock in. The unit will beep signifying that the
time and temperature has been set.
INTELLIGENT WARMING PLATE
The Intelligent Warming Plate will automatically
turn on during Classic or Rich brews when any
carafe size is selected. The Intelligent Warming

avoid burning the coffee over time. To turn the
warming plate on at any time, press the Grounds
Button to select either Classic or Rich, turn the
dial to one of the carafe sizes, and press the
WARM button.
NOTE:
If you set the warming time to

but you can still turn it on manually by
pressing the WARM button.
NOTE:
The time adjustment setting will be
saved and will not reset when the brewer is
unplugged or loses power.
NOTE:
The brewer must remain on for
the Delay Brew function to work.

power off or unplug after setting
Delay Brew. If the brewer is turned off or
unplugged, delay brew will need to be reset.
NOTE:
When delay brew is set, a grounds
brew cannot be run until the delay brew has
finished or has been canceled. A capsule
brew may be run at any time up until
5 minutes before the preset brew time.
NOTE:
The clock will remain on even if the
brewer is turned off. Ensure the brewer is
powered on to set Delay Brew.
