NOTE: If the 6 oz. (170 ml), 8 oz. (235 ml) and

unit has overheated. Please follow the
instructions above to clean the piercing needle
and resume use.
CLEANING THE HOMEBARISTA
TM
REUSABLE FILTER CUP
Simply dispose of coffee grounds, then hand-
wash both the filter cup and filter, or clean on
top rack of dishwasher.
CLEANING THE WATER
RESERVOIR
It is normal over time for discoloration, spotting
or staining to appear in the water reservoir.
Results will vary depending on the mineral
content of the water used, but will not affect the
operation of the brewer. However, be sure to
clean the water reservoir regularly to minimize
buildup.
Clean inside the water reservoir with a damp,
lint-free cloth as necessary.
Descaling Your Single-Serve Brewer
Mineral content in water varies from place to
place. Depending on the mineral content of the
water in your area, calcium deposits or scale
may build up in your Coffeemaker. Though scale
is nontoxic, it can hinder Coffeemaker
performance. Descaling your Coffeemaker will
help maintain the heating element and other
parts that come in contact with water.
For optimal performance, descale your
Coffeemaker every 3 to 6 months. It is possible
for calcium deposits to build up faster, making it
necessary to descale more often. When all the
lights flash in sequence upon turning the unit on,
this indicates the need to descale.
NOTE: Before descaling your Coffeemaker,
remember to remove the charcoal water filter
from the water filter holder located in the water
reservoir.
To begin, you will need the following:
• 13 oz. (380 ml) of distilled white vinegar
• 26 oz. (760 ml) of water
• 16 oz. (470 ml) ceramic mug or container
(do not use paper cup)
• Access to a sink
Step 1: First Vinegar Rinse
1. Fill water reservoir with 13 oz. (380 ml) of
white vinegar and 26 oz. (760 ml) of water.
2. Place the ceramic mug or container on the
drip tray.
3. Press and hold the 6 oz. (170 ml) and 8 oz.
(235 ml) buttons for 2 seconds to start
descale function.
4. Discard contents of mug into the sink.
5. Repeat until ADD WATER light comes on.
6. When descaling is complete, all LED lights
will be on.
7. Discard any remaining diluted vinegar into
sink.
Step 2: Fresh Water Rinse
1. Repeat Step 1 three times, using fresh water
in place of vinegar.
2. This will clean the Coffeemaker plumbing
and remove any residual vinegar taste.
MAINTENANCE
Any other servicing should be performed by an
authorized service representative.
