THE RATIO
The amount of ground coffee must be carefully measured against the volume of water for each brew
cycle. It is important to use enough coffee to avoid over extraction. A small amount of coffee would be
overwhelmed by a large volume of hot water. The carafe measures "cups" as 5 oz each. Maximum
capacity is slightly more than 50 oz total water volume before brewing. The volume of brewed coffee
will be slightly less because the ground coffee will absorb a certain amount. Always use fresh cold
water. Filtered water is preferable. Never put any liquid other than water in the water tank. The machi-
ne will freshly grind whole beans as part of the automatic programmed cycle. Experiment with your
favorite beans to find the settings that produce your perfect cup.
Note: Different roasts move through the grinder at different rates
- Light roasts: grind quickly, adding more coffee per cup
- Dark roasts: grind more slowly, adding less coffee per cup at the same setting.
The STRENGTH settings (figure 2/d) control the grinding time for each cup setting (2-4)(2-10) see
coffee strength section, page 10, for more info.
Note: For best results the ground coffee supply channel (figure 1/G) should be full before brewing.
THE GRIND
The method of grinding has significant impact on the resulting taste of the brewed coffee.
The professional grinder in this machine is one of the best methods for grinding coffee beans. The
conical steel burrs turn slowly to reduce heat that can damage the delicate oils and aromas in the
beans. The grinder also produces grounds with consistent particle size. This effect allows uniform
extraction and a smoother, more balance taste in the cup.
Adjusting the grind :
Adding beans:
The grinder has 5 settings to allow adjustments from fine to coarse.
The range of settings is limited to those that are appropriate for drip brewed
coffee.
Start by using the most coarse grind setting which we have set for use with
most coffees, and in particular for medium to dark roasts.
For a slightly stronger taste choose a lower setting to grind finer.
Try these settings with lighter roasted beans.
When brewing full pots you will need to add beans to the grinder before every
cycle.
Other factors, smaller batches and dark, oily beans will not use the beans as
quickly.
Always check that you have enough beans for the current brew cycle.
The bean compartment has a total capacity of approximately 125 grams.
Be sure that the water tank lid is well closed to avoid a coffee bean falling in
the water tank and clogging it.
