stops. The brewing process can be restarted
by pressing the “On” button. Restarting the
process will not affect coffee results. If you do
not want the grinder to come on again, press
the “Grind Off” button before pressing the “On”
button. Once the lid is closed, the beeping will
stop, and the grind and brew process will start
again from the beginning.
5. Before Brewing Coffee
Remove thermal carafe lid by turning in the
direction of the “unlock” arrow. PREWARM
CARAFE BY RINSING IT OUT WITH HOT
WATER. PREWARMING THE CARAFE WILL
HELP KEEP THE COFFEE HOTTER.
Return the carafe lid to the carafe. To lock the
lid, turn in the direction of the “lock” arrow until
it fits tightly on carafe and arrow lines up in the
center of the pour spout. This ensures lid is
closed and in the proper position for brewing
and pouring.
Make sure you have replaced the thermal
carafe in its position on the resting plate
and have placed a filter in the filter basket.
Plug the cord into an electrical outlet. “12:00”
will appear until you set the time. This will not
interfere with the operation of the coffeemaker.
To set clock, see the “Programming Yo u r
C o ffeemaker” section, page 8.
6. Power Unit
a) Immediate grinding and brewing:
Press the ON button. The indicator will
light and the process will begin.
b) P r o g r a m m e dB r e w i n g :
Press the“ P r o g r am”b u t t o n . The indicator will
light and the display will show the programmed
time for as long as the button is depressed.
The display reverts back to time of day once
the button is released. To set the programmed
time, see “Programming Your Coffeemaker”
on page 8.
7. Select Cups Setting
The 1-4 cup setting button is used when
you make small amounts of coffee. Normal
coffeemakers will produce a colder batch of
coffee when smaller amounts are made,
because the heater doesn't have enough time
to properly ‘warm up’ to heat a small amount.
The 1-4 setting basically ‘double heats’ the
water, making your smaller amount as piping
hot as a full pot would be.
To use: When making a smaller amount,
press the 1-4 button on the control panel
after turning on the unit. The indicator light will
illuminate. Note that the 1-4 button can be set
at any time.
8. During and After Brewing
The Brew Pause ™ feature allows you to remove
the carafe during mid-brew. The brewing
process does not stop during this period; only
the flow of coffee from the basket stops.
Do
not remove the carafe for longer than 30
seconds or the coffee may overflow the
basket.
While we offer this feature, we do not
recommend that you pour coffee before the
cycle has reached completion, since the coffee
brewed at the beginning of the cycle has a
flavor profile which is very different from the
coffee made at the end of the cycle. Removing
a cup during the brewing cycle will alter the
flavor of the finished pot.
Once the coffee has finished brewing, stir it
before serving to blend the flavors. The coffee
at the bottom of the carafe will be somewhat
stronger than the coffee at the top.
When the brewing cycle has been completed,
five beeps will sound. Coffee will continue
to stream from the filter for several seconds.
After brewing, the unit will automatically shut
itself off. The thermal carafe will keep the
coffee hot for hours.
Bottom of Thermal Carafe is hot to touch
for several minutes after brewing.
Use caution.
The brew-through, pour-through lid allows
coffee to drip from coffeemaker through the
closed lid. When brewing is complete, the
lid seals itself so air stays out and coffee
freshness and temperature are preserved. No
need to turn or adjust the lid before pouring.
