Suprema 2001 - Operation & Service
SETTING THE POST-MIX
The post-mix feature allows the unit to brew a larger cup size than the capacity of the
brewer permits. If a 12-oz cup is required, for example, the brewer can easily dispense
9 oz, but this will not be enough to fill this larger cup. With this feature enabled and
properly set, the unit will brew 9 oz from the brewer as it normally does, and the
remaining 2-3 oz of liquid required to fill this cup will be dispensed by the hot water
valve. Both the brewed coffee and hot water will be mixed together as they are
dispensed into the cup, filling the larger cup in one single cycle.
1.
To enable and set the post-mix feature, it will be necessary to scroll
between two of the menus in the set-up mode, and make several
adjustments to each.
a)
Set the coffee water timing (in the “
SET WATER
” menu) so that the
brewer dispenses a large cup of coffee.
b)
Once done, remember the coffee water timing value because it will be
needed to program the post-mix. For example, the coffee water timing for
a large cup on this unit is 3.5 seconds to get 250 ml (8.5 oz.).
c)
Scroll to the “
WATER MAX
.
BREWER
” menu, and press “
START
”.
d)
Using the example above, we know that the maximum coffee water
timing on this unit is 3.5 seconds. This value has to now be entered as the
maximum in this menu.
This setting will now limit the water being dispensed into the brewer
(from the coffee valve) to a maximum of 3.5 seconds.
e)
It will now be necessary to return to the “
SET WATER
” menu. Using the
example above, the large cup coffee water timing was set to 3.5 seconds,
and the maximum allowable coffee water timing was also set to 3.5
seconds.
f)
At this point, any increase to the large cup water timing will go above the
maximum allowable coffee water timing that was set above, and that
extra water will be dispensed by the hot water valve. For example, if the
large cup coffee water timing is now raised to 4.5 seconds, 3.5 seconds
of that will be dispensed by the coffee valve, and the extra 1.0 second
will get dispensed by the hot water valve.
When a cup is now brewed, the brewer cycle will appear to function normally until the
end of the cycle. At that point, coffee from the brewer and hot water from the hot water
valve will be dispensed into the cup at the same time. The hot water will mix with the
coffee, resulting in a larger cup of coffee than the brewer alone is capable of making.
!
Note:
The hot water
post-mix will
slightly dilute the
coffee being
dispensed by the
brewer. It may
also be necessary
to increase the
product being
dispensed into the
brewer to
compensate for
this (only for the
cup being post-
mixed).
