Please make sure to read the enclosed Ninja® Owner’s Guide prior to using your unit

BEFORE YOUR FIRST BREW

To prime your brewer:

1. Plug it into an outlet and turn it on.
2. Fill the water reservoir to the Full line with fresh water and place it on the base.
3. Remove the Ninja Pod Adapter and slide the Sliding Lid into the closed position (refer to steps on page 3).
4. 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. Refer to page 7 of the Owner’s Guide for instructions on running a high-altitude calibration brew.

LOCKING AND REMOVING THE NINJA POD ADAPTER

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

1. 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.
2. 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.

TRAVEL MUG & XL SIZES

INTELLIGENT WARMING PLATE

The Intelligent Warming Plate will automatically turn on while brewing a Classic or Rich brew on any Carafe size and remain on for 2 hours. To adjust how long the Intelligent Warming Plate remains on (up to 4 hours), refer to the Owner’s Guide.

It can be turned on manually by pressing KEEP WARM while a Classic or Rich brew and any Carafe size is selected in Grounds mode.

IMPORTANT: The light on the base of the brewer will illuminate only when the warming plate is hot and will remain illuminated until the plate has cooled down.

NINJA SMART SCOOP™

The Ninja Smart Scoop is used for accurately measuring coffee grounds. The numbers beside the icons show the number of level scoops recommended for each brew size.

I MPORTANT: Always measure with level scoops of a medium grind size. Use fewer scoops when brewing decaf coffee. DO NOT use a paper filter in conjunction with a permanent filter.

NOTE: DO NOT use any glassware except the provided Ninja carafe, which is made of specialized glass that is safe to use.

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.

FROTHING

2. Swing the arm of the frother toward the front of the brewer. Install the frother whisk by twisting it to the right.
3. Hold the cup under the frother and submerge the whisk just below the surface of the milk. Press and hold the button on top of the frother and froth for 30–45 seconds.
4. Remove the frother whisk by twisting it to the left. Keep your cup below the whisk while you carry it to your sink or dishwasher for easy cleaning.

WARNING: To avoid contact with steam and hot surfaces, DO NOT reach across top of brewer to froth.

GUIDE TO KEEPING COFFEE HOT

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

NOTE: DO NOT put the carafe in the microwave.
