HINTS AND TIPS
It is recommended to avoid placing the appliance under cabinets, as rising
steam can cause damage to wooden furniture. Empty the drip tray after each use
to prevent it from overflowing. Use a suitable thermal cup/mug to keep your
coffee hot for longer. Regularly clean the appliance. Always use fresh, cold
water in the coffee maker. Store unused ground coffee in a cool, dry place.
After opening a container of ground coffee, reseal it tightly and store it in
a refrigerator to maintain its freshness. For an optimum coffee taste, buy
whole coffee beans and finely grind them just before brewing. Do not reuse
ground coffee since this will greatly reduce the coffee flavor. Reheating
coffee is not recommended as coffee is at its peak flavor immediately after
brewing.
