CLEANING
Tank Temperature Check
Turn on brewer at the control panel ON/OFF button. Press and hold 3 button (see illustration, page 3)
for 5 seconds. Water Temperature will be displayed (temperature in heating tank).
Regular cleaning of your airpots and tea containers will maintain the highest quality coffee and iced tea your equipment is capable of
producing. A proper cleaning is essential in preserving the appearance of the brewer.
1. Turn off the unit button on the front control panel.
2. Wipe exterior surfaces with a damp cloth, removing spills and debris.
3. Slide the brewcone out and clean it. Thoroughly soap the sprayhead area with a mild detergent solution.
4. Wash the brewcone and wire brew basket, if applicable. Use a soft bristled brush for hard to clean areas. Wash both parts with a
detergent solution or put these parts through a dishwasher.
5. Wash the tea container and top cover with a detergent solution. Remove the faucet assembly. Unscrew the handle assembly
from the faucet and remove. Clean the faucet shank with a gage glass brush (circular bristle) by pushing the brush through the
shank. Using the same brush clean the faucet body inlet and outlet. Clean the faucet cap and silicone seat cup.
6. After the cleaning, place the parts (sprayhead, brewcone and basket and faucet parts) into a sink to be sanitized.
To sanitize the disassembled parts:
A. Use a clean container to submerge all parts. Wear rubber gloves for protection.
B. Immerse in commerical Bar Tabs/Sani-Tabs sanitizing solution
The solution must be warm (75°F.) Let the parts soak for at least one minute.
7. Thoroughly rinse parts with hot water. Air dry, all parts that were sanitized.
8. After cleaning, sanitizing and drying, assemble any parts taken from the tea container.
9. Clean out airpots with a sponge brush and a mild detergent solution. To remove mineral deposits, fill liner with vinegar and allow
to soak.
IMPORTANT: Clean out
the screen, within the
brewcone, to maintain
the flow of brewed
tea. Neglecting this screen will
eventually cause the brewcone to
overflow, spilling hot liquid over the
unit.
CAUTION: DO NOT
use undiluted bleach or
chlorine.
TEA TIPS
1. Store tea bags in a dark, cool and dry place away from strong odors and moisture. Do not refrigerate.
2. Never hold finished brewed tea for more than eight hours at room temperature. Discard any unused tea after eight hours
3. Brew only enough tea that you reasonably expect to sell within a few hours.
4. To protect tea flavor and to avoid bacterial contamination and growth, clean and sanitize tea brewing, storage and dispensing
equipment at least once a day.
WARNING DO NOT
refrigerate unused
tea overnight for later
consumption.
CAUTION
Do not immerse airpots
in water.
Do not place in dishwasher.
Do not use harsh powders or
cleansers containing chlorine.
Do not use a wire brush or pot
scourer to clean inside liner.
