MAKING COFFEE
- Fill the water reservoir Lift the coffee brewer lid to open. Pour the desired amount of water into the water reservoir using the water level indicator located at the front of the coffee brewer.
- Add the ground coffee Insert a #4 paper filter, gold tone filter, or the stainless steel etched filter. If using a paper filter be sure that the paper filter is completely open and fully inserted in the basket. It may help to fold and flatten the seams of a paper filter beforehand. Add 1–1½ level scoops (tablespoons) of ground coffee per cup. Adjust the amount according to taste. NOTE: The maximum capacity for ground coffee is 11 tablespoons for this coffee brewer. Exceeding this amount may cause overflow if the coffee is too finely ground.

BREW PAUSE™ FEATURE
This feature interrupts the flow of coffee from the basket to let you pour that first cup mid-brew. Because the flavor profile of coffee brewed at the start of a cycle differs from that brewed toward the end, be aware that using this feature will weaken the flavor strength of the finished pot. NOTE: Removing the carafe for more than 20 seconds during the brew cycle may cause the filter basket to overflow.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Always turn the coffee brewer off and remove the plug from the electrical outlet before cleaning. Lift up the coffee brewer lid. Remove and discard the paper filter and ground coffee. The filter basket can be washed in warm, soapy water and rinsed thoroughly, or cleaned on the upper rack of the dishwasher. Dry all parts after use.
Do not put any water in the unit once the filter basket has been removed. Wipe the area under the filter basket with a damp cloth. Remove the carafe from the heating plate. Discard any remaining coffee. The carafe and carafe lid should be placed on the upper rack only. Do not use any scouring agents or harsh cleansers on any part of the coffee brewer.
Never immerse the base unit in water or other liquids. To clean the base, simply wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry before storing. Fingerprints and other blemishes on the housing can be washed off with soap and water or a nonabrasive cleaning solution. Wait for the heating plate to cool, then wipe with a clean, damp cloth. Never use rough, abrasive materials or cleansers to clean the heating plate. Do not dry the inside of the water reservoir with a cloth, as lint may remain.
Decalcification
Decalcification refers to the removal of calcium deposits that form over time on the metal parts of your coffee brewer. The mineral content of the tap water in your area and the frequency of use affect the rate of calcium buildup, which can affect the functioning of your coffee brewer and the flavor of your coffee. For the best performance from your PurePrecision™ Pour-Over Coffee Brewer, we recommend cleaning it whenever CLEAN is flashing on your control panel. NOTE: Before decalcifying your unit, remove the charcoal water filter from the water reservoir.
To clean:
- Fill the water reservoir to capacity with a mixture of 1 ⁄3 white vinegar and 2 ⁄3 water.
- Press the MENU button 5 times to get to a clean start. Press BREW/OFF to begin the cleaning cycle.
- If CLEAN flashes once more, repeat the cleaning procedure with a fresh solution of vinegar and water. NOTE: One cleaning cycle is usually sufficient.
- When CLEAN remains off, run one cycle with a full reservoir of fresh, cold water to rinse the unit.
- Return the charcoal water filter to the holder inside the water reservoir and your coffee brewer is ready to brew!
