Selecting and Measuring Ground Coffee
For best results, use a level tablespoon for ground coffee measurement. Make sure you
use medium grind coffee for a perfect brew.
A. Suggested Coffee Measurement Chart
1 level tablespoon (tbsp) = 5 gr./0.17 oz.
1 cup = 148 ml/ 5 fl. oz. of brewed coffee
Use more or less coffee to suit your taste.
B. Adding Water and Ground Coffee
1. Open the brew basket lid. For your convenience, you
can lift out the removable filter basket.
2. Place the Oster
®
cup paper basket-style filter into the removable filter
basket (Figure 5).
NOTE: If using paper filters, it is important that the
sides of the filter fit flush against the side of the filter
basket. If filter collapse occurs, dampen the filter
before placing in the filter basket and adding ground
coffee and water.
3. Add the desired amount of coffee and gently shake to level the coffee. See the
Suggested Coffee Measurement Chart.
4. Be sure the removable filter basket is properly centered and all the way down in the
brew basket and close the lid.
5. Fill the carafe with cold, fresh water to the desired capacity (1 cup equals 148 ml/5
ounces). For easy and accurate filling, the water markings on the dual water windows
show the amount of water needed to make the corresponding desired number of cups
Do not fill past the "10 cup MAX line" or water will flow out of the overfill hole in the
back of the coffeemaker.
The amount of coffee brewed will always be slightly less than the amount of water
poured in the water reservoir. This is due to the minimum absorption of water by the
coffee grounds.
6. Lift the pour through reservoir lid and pour the water into the water reservoir. Close the
lid and place the empty carafe onto the decanter plate.
NOTE: Make sure the carafe is fully placed on the decanter plate or the water and the
grounds will overflow from the filter basket. An overflow may cause personal injury or
damage to property.
For the optimum coffee temperature, we recommend preheating the stainless steel
thermal carafe.
• Before brewing coffee, fill the carafe with hot tap water.
• Let water stand in carafe for a few minutes (2-5 minutes).
• Empty water into sink.
• Place carafe on warmer plate and start brewing cycle.
