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
To Brew
12 Cups
10 Cups
8 Cups
6 Cups
4 Cups
1 level tablespoon (tbsp) = 5 gr./0.17 oz.
1 cup = 5 fl. oz. (148 mL) 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 a 10–12 cup paper basket-style filter into the removable filter basket.
NOTE: It is important that the sides of the filter fit flush against the side of the paper 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. After following instructions in the Water Filtration System, place the Oster
basket, making sure that the side marked "this side up" faces you and that the water filter is level.
5. Be sure the removable filter basket is properly centered and all the way down in the brew basket
and close the lid.
6. Fill the decanter/ thermal carafe with cold, fresh water to the desired capacity (1 cup equals 148
mL). For easy and accurate filling, the water markings on the glass decanter/ thermal carafe show
the amount of water needed to make the corresponding desired number of cups. Do not fill past
the "12-cup MAX line" or water will flow out of the coffee maker.
NOTE: 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.
7. Lift the water reservoir lid and pour the water into the water reservoir. Close the lid and
place the empty decanter jar onto the warming plate.
NOTE: If the glass decanter is not in place then the coffee maker will not brew and the
grounds will overflow from the filter basket. An overflow may cause personal injury or
damage to property.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damaging the glass decanter and/or the risk of personal
injury, do not add cold water to the decanter if the same is already hot. Allow the glass
decanter to cool before using.
