Tips for Best-Tasting Coffee
• All coffees are made from either arabica beans or robusta beans,
or some combination of both. Arabica beans are slightly more
expensive, but tend to produce better-tasting coffee.
•
Use 1 Tablespoon (15 ml) coarse ground coffee for 4 ounces of
water. To avoid overflow, use slightly less grounds (3/4 Tablespoon
[11.1 ml]) when brewing decaf or flavored coffees.
• Finely ground coffee will make it difficult to press the coffee.
• Only buy the amount of coarsely ground coffee that you think you
will use in one week. This will make sure you have the freshest
coffee.
• Never store coffee grounds in the freezer. Moisture and air change
its flavor.
• Preheat the French Press with hot water to warm the carafe before
making coffee.
• Using a water filter, filtered water, or bottled water will yield better-
tasting coffee than tap water.
• Make sure your French Press is clean. See “Care and Cleaning”
section.
This symbol alerts you to the potential danger for personal
injury if you fail to read and follow these safety precautions.
• Do not use a cracked carafe or a carafe having a loose or
weakened handle.
• This carafe is designed to be used only with your French Press.
Do not use on a gas or electric rangetop, or in a microwave or
conventional oven.
• To avoid breakage, handle carafe with care. Avoid impact. Glass
will break as a result of impact. Use care when cleaning.
• Do not place hot carafe on cool or wet surface. Allow to cool
before washing or adding liquids.
• Do not set carafe on a hot heating surface.
• Do not clean with steel wool pads, abrasive cleanser, or any other
materials that may scratch.
• Do not place hands inside carafe. When handling, be careful if
wearing any hand jewelry, especially diamond rings. Jewelry can
scratch the glass, which increases possibility of breakage.
• Do not bump or scratch.
• Discard carafe if it is cracked or scratched.
• To avoid accidents, do not pour in the direction of people.
• When stirring in the carafe, use only wooden, plastic, or rubber
utensils. Do not use metal utensils.
• Follow the above safety precautions carefully to avoid serious burn
injuries which may result if breakage occurs while carafe holds
heated liquids.
This symbol reminds you that glass is fragile and can break
which could result in personal injury.
