Element 1: The Quest for the Perfect Cup of Coffee WATER Any hot beverage is made up primarily of water. Often overlooked, the quality of the water is as important as the quality of the coffee, tea or cocoa. A good rule of thumb is that if your water doesn’t taste good from the tap, it won’t taste any better in your beverage. That’s why the Cuisinart® Single Serve Brewing System has added a charcoal water filter that removes chlorine, bad tastes and odors, for the purest cup every time.

De-Scaling your 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 Brewer. Though scale is non-toxic, it can hinder Brewer performance. De-scaling your Brewer will help maintain the heating element and other Brewer parts that come in contact with water. For optimal performance, de-scale your Brewer every 3 to 6 months.
Troubleshooting Problem: Solution: Brewer does not have power. Plug Brewer into an independent outlet. Make sure the Brewer is securely plugged in. Plug into a different outlet. Reset your home’s circuit breaker. Confirm the power has been turned on and the LCD is illuminated. Brewer will not brew. Every once in a while an air bubble may get trapped in the water path. Lift off the reservoir, then put it back into place. Turn off and unplug the brewer for 30 seconds or more.
