4 ELEMENTS TO BREW THE PERFECT CUP

Water Quality
A great cup of coffee starts with  fresh, quality water. Since waterrepresents more than 98% of brewed coffee, it is just as important as the coffee quality itself. The water you use should taste like fresh, good-quality drinking water, have an odorless aroma, and
contain no visible impurities.
Coffee Freshness
A truly fresh cup of coffee only comes from freshly ground coffee beans. In fact, once a coffee bean is broken or ground, its flavor will begin to degrade over time. Maximize the freshness of your coffee by grinding coffee beans just prior to brewing.
Even Saturation
Even saturation of your coffee grounds is vital for ensuring proper flavor and extraction. Some coffee makers simply drip water down the center of the brew basket, which leads to over-extraction in the centerof the coffee grounds and under- extraction on the perimeter. This coffeemaker features an Evenstream showerhead, providing even saturation of the coffee grounds for optimal flavor extraction.
Proper Proportion
It is important to use the proper coffee-to-water ratio to produce a finished brew that isn’t too strong or weak. We recommend using 1 tablespoon of ground coffee for every 1 cup of brewed coffee. You may adjust this proportion to suit your individual taste, or try the Brew Strength Selector to customize your flavor!

TIPS FOR A PERFECT CUP OF COFFEE

• To maximize the freshness of your coffee, grind whole coffee beans just before brewing.
• Always use fresh, cold, clean water in your coffee maker. The water you use should have an odorless aroma and contain no visible impurities.
• Use spring water or filtered water, not distilled water which lacks the minerals necessary to bind to elements of coffee.
• A clean coffee maker is always important. Regular cleaning is required for the best tasting coffee.
• Always keep the lid on your thermal carafe after brewing. The carafe is double-wall insulated and vacuum sealed to help keep your coffee hot and fresh for hours.
• Fill the carafe with hot tap water and empty before brewing, which will warm up the carafe and help keep coffee at the brewed temperature.
• Always store your coffee in a cool, dry place. Once coffee has been opened, keep it tightly sealed in an airtight container.
• Do not refrigerate or freeze your daily supply of coffee, as contact with moisture will cause the coffee to deteriorate.
• Never re-use your coffee grounds. After brewing, the desirable coffee flavors have been extracted and only the bitter flavors remain.
• Brewed coffee should be enjoyed immediately! Allowing coffee to sit too long and reheating coffee will impact the flavor.
• Smell the aroma of your freshly brewed coffee, and remember that every sip is meant to be savored and enjoyed!

BREWING COFFEE

Note: You don’t need to set the clock to brew coffee right away.

1. Open cover of coffeemaker. Fill water reservoir with cold tap water. Use lines on the easy viewing water window as a guide. Do not fill past 12 MAX line.
   

2. Place a basket shaped paper filter into the brew basket. Add ground coffee (we suggest 1 tablespoon per cup). Put brew basket in place.

3. Close carafe lid by first lining up the arrow on the lid with the unlocked symbol on the carafe. Turn the lid clockwise until arrow on the lid is lined up with the locked symbol.
   Note: Coffee may run over if lid is not correctly in place on carafe.

4. Place empty carafe on the carafe plate and plug cord into a standard outlet.
   

5. To set the Auto Brew delay start, brew strength selector, and 1-4 cup setting, follow the instructions in the “Programming” section.

6. Press ON/OFF button once to begin brewing.

7. The Sneak-A-Cup™ feature allows you to pour a cup of coffee before the brewing cycle is complete. The carafe must be placed back into the coffeemaker within 20 seconds to prevent overflow. Replacing the carafe will restart the brewing process.

8. Brew timer will begin when brewing cycle is complete.

9. Press tab on carafe lid to pour coffee.

10. To turn off the coffeemaker at any time press the ON/OFF button.
