ADDITIONAL USES OF THE COFFEE URN

Hot Chocolate Bar

Prepare your Hot Chocolate bar on a sturdy table or counter. Use a tablecloth to add some festive decor.
Decide where to place the coffee urn (either on the left or right side of the hot chocolate bar, where it can be plugged in). Then fill the urn with water and place it in the decided location. Turn it on so the water starts heating.
Prepare all accessories for your chocolate bar. This can include instant hot chocolate powder, Nutella®, shredded chocolate, whipped cream, toppings, etc. as well as cups and utensils. Leave the front section of your set-up clear to allow users enough space to prepare their personalized hot chocolate drinks.

Tea Serving Station

Make sure the coffee urn has no traces of coffee and is completely clean. Fill with water to the desired line.
Optional: You may also slice a whole lemon (including the peel) and place this in the filter basket for additional flavour.
Place your tea (either loose-leaf or tea bags) into the top filter basket. Make sure you include enough to make the number of cups desired. You can roughly use the coffee measurement chart to determine how much to add, and adjust this to taste for the next batch.
Secure the lid and turn it on to start the brewing process.

Hot Apple Cider

Make sure the coffee urn is perfectly clean with no traces of coffee. Place it where you will be brewing the cider.
Insert the percolating tube and grounds basket. Place 2 cinnamon sticks, 1 /2 tbl whole cloves, 1 tbl whole cardamom, 1 tbl of whole star anise, 2 dashes of all-spice, and an orange peel into the basket. You can adjust spices and amounts based on taste preference.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

CLEAN BEFORE EACH USE

Before using your coffee urn for the first time and after each use, wash the coffee basket, percolating tube and interior of the coffee maker with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and dry. NEVER IMMERSE BASE IN WATER.

INSERT WATER
Remove the cover, coffee basket and percolating tube and fill the coffeemaker with fresh, cool water to the desired fill line. Do not fill the coffee maker past the top fill line. Never use hot water to make coffee.

INSERT COFFEE
Wet the bottom of the coffee basket before adding coffee grounds to prevent the grounds from filtering into your brewed coffee. Measure the appropriate amount of coffee (see coffee measuring guide) into the coffee basket and set the coffee basket onto the percolating tube. Position the bottom of the percolating tube into the heating well, but do not force it.

SECURE COVER

Place the cover on the coffeemaker and twist it to secure it in the handle slots.

BEGIN BREWING

Flip the ON switch to begin brewing your coffee.
Allow approximately 1 -11/2 minutes per cup in brewing time. Variations in water temperature will affect brewing time.

These are recommended amounts only – coffee strength can be adjusted to personal taste by adding or subtracting from those quantities to make coffee stronger or lighter.

HELPFUL HINTS

Make at least 10 cups at a time to ensure the best coffee flavour. Never make less than the minimum capacity or more than the maximum capacity of your coffeemaker.
Use regular coffee grounds for best results. Do not use drip or finely ground coffee as flooding of the coffee basket can occur. If you are grinding your coffee beans, grind to medium coarseness for best results. Do not grind too fine (powder-like as this can cause the coffee basket to flood.
Remove the coffee basket and dispose of used grinds as soon as the brewing cycle is completed. This helps maintain the coffee flavour for the next brew.
Before brewing a second pot, cool the coffeemaker by rinsing it thoroughly with cold water.
If dripping occurs between the faucet and the coffeemaker body, tighten the nut inside the coffee maker.

CARE & CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! If cleaning instructions are not followed, the operation of this unit may be seriously impaired.

Before using your Coffee Urn for the first time and after each use, wash the coffee basket, percolating tube and interior of the coffee maker with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and dry. Before cleaning, unplug the unit and pour out any remaining coffee. NEVER IMMERSE BASE IN WATER.
To clean coffee stains on the underside of the cover, scour with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive cleanser.
Clean the faucet after each use by pouring clean, hot water into the coffeemaker and running it through the faucet.
The percolating tube should be frequently cleaned with a long, narrow brush to remove any mineral deposits that may impair the unit’s operation. The oily coffee residue will also affect the flavour of the next pot of coffee if not cleaned.
The heating well of the coffeemaker should be cleaned thoroughly with an abrasive pad. Rinse thoroughly and dry. This will remove mineral deposits which may affect the coffee maker’s operation and could eventually cause the percolating tube to stick in the heating well and break, if not cleaned.
To remove discolourations caused by coffee stains, oils and mineral deposits, clean the inside of the coffeemaker frequently by filling the unit to the top fill line with cold water. Add 1/2 cup cream of tartar, insert the percolating tube and the empty coffee basket. Cover the unit and plug it into a wall outlet.
Once the brewing cycle is complete, unplug the unit, allow it to cool and discard the contents. Wash and rinse the coffee basket, percolating tube and inside of the coffeemaker thoroughly.
If the coffeemaker is used regularly, this procedure should be followed every two weeks.
If the coffeemaker is used daily, a special cleaning every 2 weeks is necessary to remove mineral deposits. Fill the coffeemaker with 1 quart of water and 1 quart of distilled vinegar. If a white mineral buildup has formed inside the unit, use an additional 2 cups of vinegar.) Place the stem and empty coffee basket into place, secure the cover and plug the unit in.
Allow the coffeemaker to complete the brewing cycle, then let stand for 10-15 minutes. Unplug and drain the coffeemaker. Allow to cool and follow general cleaning instructions.
Do not wash coffeemaker parts in an automatic dishwasher.
