BEFORE YOUR FIRST BREW

To prime your brewer:

Plug it into an outlet and turn it on.
Fill the water reservoir to the Full line with fresh water and place it on the base.
Remove the Ninja Pod Adapter and slide the Sliding Lid into the closed position.
Place the empty carafe under the brew basket and run a Full Carafe, Classic brew.

Once the brew is complete, discard the water and you’re ready to go.

If you live in a high-altitude area, running a calibration brew is required. Not running a high-altitude calibration brew in a high-altitude area will result in excessive steaming during brewing. instructions on running a high- altitude calibration brew

LOCKING AND REMOVING THE NINJA POD ADAPTER

The Ninja DualBrew Pro Coffee System comes with a unique Ninja Pod Adapter already installed on the brewer. Always ensure the adapter is installed over the brew basket

Once the adapter is installed in the brewer, make sure the position indicator on the left side of the adapter is aligned with LOCK by pulling the handle toward you. Then, lift to open the handle, insert a pod, firmly push down on the handle to pierce the pod, and begin programming your brew.
To uninstall the adapter, remove the used pod and close the handle. Push the handle away from you so the position indicator is in the REMOVE position. Then, using the edges on the left and right, lift the adapter out of the brewer.

NOTE: The Ninja Pod Adapter is compatible only with K-Cup pods. It is not compatible with reusable K-Cup filters. If using ground coffee, use the Grounds mode with a paper or permanent filter (sold separately) to brew a single-serve size.

SLIDING LID

The sliding lid is used only when brewing loose coffee grounds. To use it, first remove the Ninja Pod Adapter. Then, using the handle on top of the brewer, slide the lid toward you until it firmly clicks into place.

BREW

Press the START BREW button to start brewing. There will be an illuminating progress bar on the display to track the status of your brew.

THE BREW MAY PAUSE ONCE OR MULTIPLE TIMES DURING THE BREW CYCLE. THAT’S OK. Pausing allows the coffee grounds to fully extract and unlock the full flavor of the brew style.

NOTE: Ensure the drip stop is open before starting your brew.

DRIP STOP

The drip stop is used to close off the brew basket to prevent any coffee from dispensing. You will need to manually open and close the drip stop by moving the handle to your desired position. The drip stop can be closed and reopened at any point before, during, or after a brew.

CAN’T WAIT FOR THAT FIRST CUP?
Close the drip stop to pause the brew cycle, and pour yourself a cup. Then, reopen the drip stop to continue the brew.

STOP THE DRIPS AFTER A BREW
At the end of a brew, close the drip stop to prevent coffee dripping from the brew basket and Ninja® Pod Adapter.

GUIDE TO KEEPING COFFEE HOT

The type of cup you brew into can greatly influence the drinking temperature of your coffee.

| CERAMIC CUP| | |

PAPER CUP

---|---|---|---|---

Cup Temperature

| Room temperature| Pre-warmed with hot water| Pre-warmed in microwave with milk|

Room temperature

Drinking Temperature

| Hot
| Hotter
| Hotter
| Hottest

Why is there a difference?| A cold ceramic mug will steal heat from the coffee as it warms itself up.| If the mug is already warm, it will not steal as much heat from the coffee.| Just like your cold mug, cold milk lowers the temperature of your coffee.|

Unlike a ceramic mug, a thinner paper cup does not steal substantial heat from the coffee.

NOTE: DO NOT put the carafe in the microwave.
