EE The flavor of coffee depends on a variety of factors, including the quality, freshness, and roast of the beans, the fineness and Darkly roasted beans which appear dark brown or nearly black look great, but the extra roasting will overwhelm the more delicate coffee flavors and consistency of the grind, the ratio of coffee caramelize any sugars. A heavy "roasted" coffee to brew water, the cleanliness of the brewing equipment, and the brew water purity.
The Right If you prefer substantially weaker-than-average coffee, it's best to Grind Freshly ground coffee loses flavor and aroma quickly - within minutes. The best cup of coffee will always come from coffee beans that are ground just before brewing. A proper grind is critical for good coffee, and that means using a quality burr grinder like the PROLINE" SeriesBurr Coffee Mill or the KitchenAid _' Model A-9" Coffee Mill.
EE /::?_,Ii;;ii_\/i_'iiii; !]ii fn<_i_i;)_ (i;Ti;7:::'_{)_ii:/:k] .... Coffee Maker Cleanliness Coffee oils build up quickly within the brew basket and carafe. Over time, these oils will go stale and taint the flavor of freshly brewed coffee. Daily cleaning of the brew basket, brew basket insert, and carafes is strongly recommended for the best-tasting coffee. Warming Plate Temperature If you intend to keep coffee on the warming plate for an extended period, use the "low" temperature setting.

Cleaning the Coffee Maker Unplug the coffee maker and portable warming plate. Remove the brew basket insert from the brew basket. Wash the brew basket, brew basket insert, carafe, and carafe lid in hot, soapy water and rinse with hot water. Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads. These parts can also be washed in the upper rack of the dishwasher. A Wipe the coffee maker housing and portable warming plate with a clean damp cloth, and dry with a soft cloth.
Descaling Descaling Calcium deposits ("scale") from water will build up in the coffee maker heat pump over time and impair brewing efficiency and coffee quality. With normal use, scale should be removed every three months or whenever the water filter icon appears on the brew timer display. Local water conditions, use of the coffee maker more than once a day, or use without a water filter may require more frequent descaling.
CAR Storing the Coffee ...... Maker Since the coffee maker retains a small amount of water after brewing, never use it in environments where the temperature drops below freezing (32 °F or 0°C). If the coffee maker will not be used for a prolonged period, or if it will be stored at temperatures below freezing, empty all water from the unit. To empty, unplug the coffee maker, then remove the water guide cover, the water filter access cover, the water filter, and the brew basket.
