Your Curtis Gemini is Factory Pre-Set and Ready to Go… Right from the Box.
Following are the Factory Settings for your GEMSS Coffee Brewing System:
• Brew Temperature = 200°F • Water Bypass = On LARGE & MEDIUM brew only

System Requirements:
• Water Source 20 – 90 PSI (Minimum Flow Rate of 1 GPM)

Setup Steps
The unit should be located on a solid counter top and leveled (left to right and front to back). Connect a water line from the water filter to
the brewer.
NOTE: A water filtration system must be used to help maintain trouble-free operation. Air must be purged from the cartridge prior to
connection to equipment. In areas with extremely hard water, we highly recommend the use of a Curtis approved water filter. For our full
line of filters, please log on to www.wilburcurtis.com.

Sanitation Requirements
1. A 3/8”Flare x 3/8” Male pipe elbow is supplied with the brewer for water line connection. Use tubing sized sufficiently to provide a
minimum of 1.0 GPM.
2. Connect the unit to an appropriate electrical power circuit.
3. Turn on the toggle (STANDBY/ON) switch behind the unit. The heating tank will start to fill. When the water level in the tank rises to
the correct volume, the heating elements will energize automatically.
4. The heating tank will require 20 to 30 minutes to reach operating temperature (200°F), indicated when READY TO BREW is displayed
on the LCD screen.
5. Prior to brewing, dispense 12 ounces of hot water through the hot water faucet.
6. Brew a cycle of at least 12 ounces, to purge the water lines of any air that may be trapped after filling.
