Therefore, it is recommended that you add a
little extra water at the beginning so that
you will have the number of cups you
desire.
Replace the glass carafe on the warming
plate with the carafe lid in position.
Potting in the ground coffee
With the hinged lid opened, insert a paper
filter (we recommend KRUPS size
4)
into the
filter holder, with the seam facing right
(see
figure
7).
We suggest using one level KRUPS
measuring scoop of ground coffee for each
cup of robust coffee (see figure 8).
After using your KRUPS coffeemaker
several times, you can adjust the measure
to suit your own taste.
Close the hinged lid, making sure that the
filter holder is securely in place.
The KRUPS “Crystal
Arome”
features a full
flavor selector button. If you want to make
l-3 cups of coffee, press the ‘l-3’ button
(see figure
9).
This will extend the brewing
cycle so that the water will seep into the
ground coffee slowly enough to yield
brewed coffee that is rich, aromatic and
truly delicious.
For making 4-10 cups, the
‘4-max’
flavor
selector button should be pressed.
Press the ON/OFF switch to the ‘I’ position.
Indicator light will illuminate and brewing
will commence (see figure 101.
For model #458:
Turn the selector switch to the “on” position.
The red indicator light will illuminate,
indicating that the brewing process has
begun (seefigure 11).
The “Stop’n Serve” feature is KRUPS answer
to the impatient coffee drinker’s clamor for “a
quick cup of coffee!“. This device
automatically stops the flow of brewed coffee
through the filter cone if the glass carafe is
removed from the warming plate during the
brewing cycle. You have about 20 seconds
between the removal of the carafe and its
being reinserted to allow the service of one or
two cups of coffee. The “Stop’n Serve” device
closes off the filter cone so effectively that
there is virtually no coffee-drip onto the
warming plate
(one
drop, at most). Once the
carafe is replaced, the brewing cycle and the
flow of coffee into the carafe are resumed.
A
CAUTION:
If coffee does drip onto the warming plate
after removal of the carafe, it is usually an
indiction that too much ground coffee has
been placed into the paper filter. This
causes the water that jets into the filter cone
to overflow between the paper filter and the
sides of the filter cone. The overflow carries
coffee grounds that interfere with the
snap-
shut action of the filter holder, thus allowing
brewed coffee to continue to drip through.
H
this blockage and subsequent dripping do
occur, replace the glass carafe immediately
and allow the full brewing cycle to run its
course. Do not remove the
fffter
until the
brewing cycle is completed.
This feature enables you to enjoy freshly
brewed coffee at any pre-selected time within
a 24-hour period. To use this feature, you
must first set the digital clock
(see “Setting the Time”).
