Verve Pour Over Filter Coffee Maker

New to the world of coffee – ‘Pour Over’ filtering, for a superior taste.
Ordinarily a manual technique, the pour over method involves gradually filtering hot water through ground coffee in a very controlled manner.
‘Pour Over’ is becoming increasingly popular due to the flavour it produces; fuller, smoother and richer tasting coffee.
Morphy Richards has combined the superior taste of manual pour over coffee, with the ease and convenience of a programmable machine. As a result, it’s perfect for those who really enjoy the true taste of coffee, but want it delivered quickly and conveniently.

The pour over filter machine includes two key differences to a standard filter product; a ‘cupcake’ filter and a specially developed brewing process.

• The cupcake filter is so called because it is shaped like the bottom of a cupcake, rather than the more traditional cone. A traditional cone filter can over-extract the coffee in the narrowest part of the filter at the bottom, and this can result in a bitter taste. Whereas the cupcake filter allows a more even flow of water through the coffee grounds, and therefore delivers a smoother taste.
• The brewing process of our pour over machine has been developed to mirror the manual method traditionally used by baristas. At the start of the brewing process, it initially delivers only a small volume of water over the ground coffee held in the filter (a process known as ‘pre-soaking’). The reason for this is that when ground coffee initially comes in to contact with hot water, it releases carbon dioxide for a short period (a process known as ‘blooming’). If water is poured over the coffee during blooming, then little flavour is extracted resulting in a less flavour some cup of coffee. This machine however waits for the blooming process to finish before brewing the coffee, resulting in a fuller flavour.

Before First Use

• Take your coffee maker out of the box and remove the packaging.
• Wash the detachable parts (removable permanent filter, removable filter holder, glass carafe) in warm soapy water.
• The first time you use your coffee maker, operate the coffee maker with water only.
• The lid (1) may be stiff to open for the first few uses. We recommend that you steady the side of the machine with one hand, and lift the lid with the other hand, for ease of  opening.

Using Your Coffee Maker – Quick Start

Fill the Water Reservoir (9) with cold water using the Internal Water Gauge (3) for guidance. Fill water to the required amount of cups that you would like to produce. Do not exceed the maximum 12 cups level.

Spoon filter coffee into the Removable Permanent Filter (7). We recommend 7g (approx 1 scoop) of coffee per cup. Place the Filter into the Removable Filter Holder (8) ensuring the Removable Filter Holder aligns into place. The Removable Permanent Filter does not require an additional paper filter. However, you can use a paper filter too, if you choose, but ensure it is suitable for a cupcake shaped filter and matches the dimensions of the Removable Permanent Filter.

Close the Lid (1) and replace the Carafe (5) on the Hot Plate (6).

Press the On/Off Button (16) to start the brewing process. If you need to stop the brewing process, press the button a second time.
DO NOT OPEN THE LID (1) DURING THE BREWING CYCLE.

Setting the Clock

• To set the machine to display the time of day, follow the steps below. Please note this does not set the coffee brew time. To set the brew time, follow the instructions on page 6.
  1 When your coffee maker is plugged in, the display will illuminate.
  2 To set the time, press and hold the Program/Clock Button (11) for 3 seconds and use the Select Up & Down (14 & 15) Buttons to adjust the time. The display is a 12 hour clock.
  3 Press the Program/Clock Button (11) again to confirm the time.

Using the Strength Selector

• You can adjust the brew strength for any volume of coffee (from 1 cup to a full 12 cup carafe). To do this, follow the steps below:
  1 Press the Strength Selector Button (12) once, the display screen will flash STRENGTH and show icon.
  2 To choose between strengths, use the Select Up and Down (14 & 15) Buttons.
  3 Press the Strength Selector Button (12) to confirm.

• However, if you are brewing 1-4 cups, the machine can automatically set the optimum program for you. This is specially adapted for small quantities. Follow the instructions below:

• For brewing 1-4 cups of coffee, press and hold the Strength Selector Button (12) for 3 seconds. The screen will display . The machine will automatically adjust the cycle.

To Pre-set a Brewing Time

Ensure the clock is set before attempting to pre-set the brewing time.
Follow the ‘Setting the clock’ instructions on page 5.

Follow ‘Using your coffee maker – Quick Start’ steps 1-3 on page 5.

Press the Program/Clock Button (11), the Screen will display ‘PROGRAM’.

The default time will show 12am. Use the Up (14) and Down (15) buttons to change the time and press Program (11) to confirm.

After setting is complete, the machine will beep and display the selected time for 3 seconds before switching back to the current time. To cancel this program, press the Program/Clock Button (11) again so the ‘PROGRAM’ icon disappears.

Refilling Your Coffee Maker

• Switch off your coffee maker and allow 3 minutes to cool before refilling with cold water.

Keep Warm

• After the brewing cycle has finished, your coffee maker will automatically activate the keep warm function which will keep your coffee warm for 25 minutes.
• The display screen will show TIME SINCE BREW and will count up from 0:00.
• The machine will automatically go into standby mode after keep warm mode has finished.
• To reactivate the machine from standby mode, press any button.
• To switch the keep warm mode off before it has finished, press the On/Off Button (16).
• To prevent the keep warm function from activating at all, press the Keep Warm/Clean Button (13) before you set the initial brew cycle, then press the Select Down Button (15) so that the timer displays 0:00.
• Press the Keep Warm/Clean Button again to confirm.

Cleaning Your Coffee Maker

• Unplug your coffee maker and allow to cool.

• Do not immerse your coffee maker in liquid.

• Rinse the Water Reservoir occasionally with cold water. Do not use a cloth as any residue or lint may be left behind to clog the coffee maker.

• Remove the Removable Permanent Filter, discard any used coffee and wash. Extended soaking helps to remove coffee stains from the mesh.

• Wash the Glass Carafe, Carafe Lid, and Removable Filter Holder in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry all parts thoroughly. Refit the Removable Permanent Filter and Removable
  Filter Holder.

• Wipe all external surfaces, including the Hot Plate, with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.

• Care must be taken to ensure that the non-drip valve situated on the bottom of the removable filter holder is not damaged during cleaning.

• Never use harsh or abrasive cleaners.

• NO parts are suitable for cleaning in a dishwasher.

Auto Clean

• For a deeper clean follow these instructions.
  1 Combine 6 cups of white vinegar and 4 cups of cold water in the reservoir.
  2 Press and hold the Keep Warm/Clean Button (13) until the screen indicates CLEAN, then press the On/Off Button (16). Your coffee maker will beep and begin the cycle.
  3 Leave the machine for 45-60 minutes until the cycle is complete.
  4 Discard the dirty liquid in the Carafe (5) and run your coffee maker with cold water for a further 2 or 3 times before using again.

Descaling

• If you live in a hard water area, we recommend that your coffee maker is descaled at regular intervals, e.g. every 2-3 months. In areas of moderately hard water, you should descale every 6 months.
• If the water filters through more slowly than usual, it is a sign that descaling may be necessary.
• We recommend you use a proprietary liquid descaler which is especially made for coffee makers and plastic kettles. Follow the instructions on the bottle or sachet, and then operate the coffee maker with just water 3 times before making coffee.
• Do not use a kettle descaler unless the packet specifically states it is suitable for coffee makers. Note: The removable permanent filter should not be used during descaling.
