GENERAL COFFEE BREWING HINTS AND TIPS
1. The volume of coffee is always be slightly lower than the volume of water it has been brewed
with. The missing water is absorbed by the coffee from which you brew.
2. Keep your coffee beans or ground or granulated coffee in a sealed container and in a dry and
cold place.
3. Grinding coffee beans in the coffee grinder right before brewing helps the brew develop its
full aroma. Coffee may require coarse or fine grinding, depending on the variety. Do not put
more than 36 g of coffee (6 teaspoons) into the coffee maker. Overfilling the coffee grinder
may overload its motor and result in failure of the appliance.
4. Do not rebrew the spent coffee. The best and fullest aroma can only be achieved with the
first brewing.
5. Keep the appliance clean. Dirt, grime, residues of spent coffee and coffee oil produced by
grinding and brewing will spoil the overall aroma of the brew and reduce the operating life
of the coffee maker.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
CAUTION! Before cleaning, always unplug the coffee maker from the mains outlet and wait until it has
completely cooled down.
CAUTION! Do not immerse the appliance housing (15) in water!
1. Remove the water tank (10) with the coffee grinder chamber (12) by pulling up the handle (11)
with the top lid (1) open. Remove the filter cage (13) from the coffee grinder chamber (12).
Rinse the water tank (10) with the coffee grinder chamber (12) and the filter cage (13) with
water to remove all residues of coffee. Next, thoroughly wash the parts with lukewarm water
and a mild detergent. Rinse clean with water and leave to dry. The filter in the cage (13) and
the coffee grinder chamber (12) can also be cleaned with the brush (14) included in the prod-
uct. Always keep the drip stop valve (9) clean. Press the drip stop valve 3 to 4 times to remove
the remaining water and brew.
2. Remove the coffee grinder cover (2) from the top lid (1) by gently turning the cover coun-
ter-clockwise and pulling towards you. Wash the coffee grinder cover (2) with warm water
with a detergent, rinse it clean and leave to dry. Reinstall the coffee grinder cover (2) by align-
ing the four bosses between the cover (2) and the inside of the top lid (1) and then twisting
the cover clockwise.
3. Gently wash the glass coffee jug (4) with its handle (5) and lid (6) like any other glassware.
4. Gently wipe clean the coffee maker housing (15), the water tank receptacle interior and the
coffee jug niche with a damp cloth. Next, wipe dry.
5. After prolonged storage and before using the coffee maker for the first time, do a brewing
cycle with water only –– do not add coffee. This will help thoroughly clean the inner tubing of
the appliance. The procedure: fill the water tank to MAX with 600 ml of water, put the empty
coffee jug (4) on the heat plate (3), and start the Coffee Powder mode brewing. Once the cof-
fee maker passes all water from the water tank, repeat the cycle with fresh water.
6. Descale the coffee maker periodically to restore its optimum performance. Descaling is sim-
ilar to the water-only brewing procedure (without adding coffee) in item 5; instead of water,
use a dedicated coffee and espresso maker descaling agent by adding it to the water tank.
Remove the coffee grinder filter cage (13) before descaling. Repeat as necessary. Once done
