PARTS

TECHNICAL DATA | Rated voltage: 120V 60Hz | Rated power input: 1560W Plastic parts contacting liquid are BPA, BPS and Phthalates free.

BREW

Step 1
Lithe Water reservoir lid and use the Carafe (or other pitcher) to pour the desired amount of cold water into the Water reservoir according to the amount of coffee you are going to brew. The water level must meet the MIN line and not exceed the MAX line  indicated on the Water reservoir. This will brew between 2-8 cups of coffee.
Step 2
Insert a #4 V-shaped paper coffee filter into the brew basket (fold the filter at the crimped edges for proper fit (see Fold The Filter diagram on Page 5). Scoop ground coffee into the filter. We recommend 1 rounded tablespoon (6-9 grams) of ground coffee per cup, and you can adjust the amount according to your taste. Place the Lid on the Filter basket and make sure the Drip toggle (at the boom of the brew basket beneath the handle) is in the Open posion “O” to avoid overflow during brewing. See figure A.
Step 3
Place the lid on the Water reservoir. Slide the Filter basket (containing the filter and ground coffee) into the Filter basket bracket – you will feel the magnetic catch when it is in place. Place the Glass carafe with Mixing tube lid on the Warming plate. The Brewer  should be plugged into a 120V GFI/GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) protected electrical outlet.
Step 4
Press the Power switch ON – in the up position. The Power switch will toggle back to the down position immediately for safety, but it is On – the orange Indicator light will be illuminated, and the Brewer has started heating the water to make coffee. The Brewer  will take a minute or so to start brewing, and you will have 8 cups in 6 minutes or so. It will take less me to make fewer cups. The Brewer will shut off automa cally. In case you need to shut off the Brewer manually, press the Power switch again and the orange  Indicator light will shut off, indicating the Brewer is OFF.

DO’S

FOLD THE FILTER
Use #4 paper coffee filters. For best fit and operation, fold the filter along the boom and side crimped edges so the filter sits properly in the Filter basket. These #4 filters are widely available at most grocery stores.
BLOOM
We recommend using the Bloom feature especially when you are using freshly roasted coffee. Freshly roasted coffee has natural carbon dioxide in the bean that should be released during the brewing process. Our Bloom (pre-infusion) automa cally pauses the  brew after the grounds have been wet enough to let the carbon dioxide escape.
To use the Bloom, simply press the Bloom switch to the ON position (Up), and then press the Power switch On (Up), as you would normally start brewing. The brewing process now includes the Bloom automa cally – a er the brewing begins, you will notice a  pause in the water flow from the showerhead, and then after the coffee is given me to Bloom, the brewing automa cally resumes to comple on.
There is no need to touch the Bloom switch wile brewing, it is automatic.
When the Bloom switch is On (Up) the Brewer will include the Bloom as part of the brewing process for every pot of coffee. Simply press the Bloom switch Off (Down) to brew without it. You will likely find the Bloom makes a fuller, rounder (less bitter) cup of  coffee.
WARM
This Brewer is quick, so brewing the amount of coffee you want to drink fresh is easy. And fresh coffee is always the best. This Brewer has a Warming plate designed to keep a carafe of coffee warm for 40 minutes. The Warming plate is not too hot and will not  stay on too long, to avoid cooking the coffee while keeping it warm. Also, the Warming plate shuts off automa cally after 40 minutes for safety. You can turn off the Warming plate (and the Brewer) by pressing the Power switch (Up) and the orange light will go  off.
COMPOST
Remove the Filter basket and discard used ground coffee and filter in-between each use. Coffee grounds and paper filters make for great compost. Your garden will thank you!

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

Clean after each use and your Brewer will make great coffee for many years.
Unplug the Brewer, let it cool down completely before cleaning. Remove the showerhead and wash by hand or on top rack of a dishwasher.
Only use so, damp cloth to clean the outside of the machine. Do not clean the coffee Brewer, carafe or warming plate with abrasive cleansers, steel wool pads, or other abrasive materials.
Never submerge the Brewer in water. Do not place the Brewer in the dishwasher.
DESCALE
We recommend that you descale your Brewer once every two months. We recommend using Urnex or other good quality, biodegradable and phosphate-free coffee Brewer descaling powder/solution. Follow instructions on descaling product package. Clean the  Brewer by filling the water tank with fresh, filtered, cold water to the MAX line and run through the brew process. We do not recommend vinegar, baking soda or other household items to descale.

WATER TEMPERATURE
This Brewer is designed to consistently deliver 195 °F – 205 °F water temperature per SCA (Specialty Coffee Associa on) guidelines for brewing to Specialty Coffee Standards. An independent Brewer Testing and Analysis Report is available at SimplyGoodCoffee.com under Customer Support. Some customers try to measure the water temperature from the Brewer (which we do not recommend) by placing a thermometer in the Carafe or under the shower head. This method will not provide accurate  temperature readings and is not how SCA temperature testing is done. The shower head pulses water drops that mix with air, and the coffee has already cooled at the boom of the carafe, so both loca ons are poor choices to measure water temperature. According  to SCA guidelines measuring water temperature should be done in the Filter basket just below the top of the slurry of coffee and water, approximately one minute or more into the brew, with the Bloom feature off.
