WOULD YOU LIKE A HOTTER COFFEE?
Have you ever wondered why you get paper cups on the go? The type of cup you brew into can drastically influence the
drinking temperature!

Why is there a
difference?
A cold ceramic
mug will steal
heat from the
coffee as it warms
itself up.
If the mug is
already warm, it
will not steal as
much heat from
the coffee.
Just like your
cold mug, cold
milk lowers the
temperature of
your coffee.
The Ninja
®
double wall cup is
designed to retain
initial coffee temp
better than a
ceramic cup.
Unlike a ceramic
mug, a thinner
paper cup
does not steal
substantial heat
from the coffee.
FILLING THE BREW BASKET WITH COFFEE
For best results, use the below measurements of ground
coffee for each size brew–the amount of ground coffee for
each size will remain the same for any brew type that you
select. For example, if you select Cup and Classic Brew, you
will use the same amount of coffee grounds as if you select
Cup and Specialty Brew.
CAUTION: The maximum capacity for ground
coffee is 12 rounded tablespoons or 6 Ninja
Carafe Scoops. Exceeding this amount or using
fine ground coffee may cause overflow.
1 Open the brew basket by sliding the brew basket out of
the brewer. (Fig. 13)
NOTE: The brew basket can be removed from the
brewer by lifting the brew basket at a slight upward
angle (similar to a cabinet drawer).
NOTE: Check for any loose grounds that may be left
in the brew basket. Remove and rinse brew basket
ifneeded.
2 Place the permanent filter or a #4 paper cone filter in
the brew basket. If using a paper cone filter, remove the
permanent filter, fold along the seams, open it fully, and
firmly press it into the brew basket making sure that it
is fully seated. (Fig. 14)
