CARE & MAINTENANCE
CLEANING AFTER A BREW
1 After the unit has cooled, remove the filter
holder from the brew basket. If using a paper
filter, empty the used grounds and discard it. If
using the permanent filter, wash it thoroughly
with soap and warm water or place on the top
rack of the dishwasher.
2 Empty the water reservoir and hand-wash or
place in the dishwasher with opening facing
downwards. We recommend thoroughly
washing the water reservoir weekly.
1 Set the empty carafe beneath the brew basket.
2 Use a descaling solution specifically formulated
for coeemaker cleaning
and follow the directions on the package. Fill
the water reservoir up to, but not exceeding,
the 14-Cup Line (70 fl. oz.).
OR
Add 16 oz. of white vinegar to the water
reservoir, then fill the rest of the reservoir with
water up to, but not exceeding, the 14-Cup
Line (70fl. oz.).
NOTE: For best results, we recommend rinsing the
reservoir after brewing and refilling with fresh water
the next time you brew.
NOTE: The clean cycle takes approximately
75 minutes. If you cancel the clean cycle, your
machine will not be properly descaled.
NOTE: The glass carafe, brew-through lid,
removable filter holder, permanent filter, water
reservoir, water reservoir lid, and scoop are
dishwasher safe.
NOTE: Hard water will cause scale buildup
faster than soft water and the brewer will
indicate it needs cleaning more often.
IMPORTANT: Use only white vinegar.
NOTE: Running a water-only clean cycle will
not descale the brewer properly.
3 We recommend cleaning your carafe with
warm, soapy water, or placing it on the top
rack of your dishwasher. If you want to clean
the carafe more thoroughly, we recommend
using a soft foam brush. DO NOT use a wire
brush.
4 After the coee maker has cooled, wipe
down the main unit, showerhead, and water
reservoir shelf with a cloth and warm water.
DO NOT immerse the coee maker in water.
CLEANING & DESCALING YOUR BREW SYSTEM
The clean function allows you to clean your
unit whenever you would like. As a guideline,
we suggest running a clean cycle if full carafe
classic brews are taking longer than 25
minutes, or full carafe rich brews are taking
longer than 30 minutes
NOTE: Make sure the SMALL BATCH button is
not selected/illuminated.
3 Once the water reservoir is filled with your
cleaning solution or vinegar mixture, press
the CLEAN button. The clean cycle takes
approximately 75 minutes. To cancel the
clean cycle, press the CLEAN button again
or press the Power button.
4 The unit will beep when the clean cycle
successfully completes.
5 Empty the contents of the carafe and place it
back under the brew basket. Clean the water
reservoir with warm, soapy water to remove
any cleaning solution that could aect the
flavor of your coee.
6 Refill the reservoir with fresh water up to, but
not exceeding, the 14-Cup Line and set the
empty carafe beneath the brew basket.
7 Flush the system by running a 14-Cup Classic
Brew cycle with water only. After the cycle is
complete, discard the water and thoroughly
clean the carafe.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
There is sediment in my coee.
• If using a permanent filter (not included on
all models), the sediment at the bottom of
the brewed coee may be due to using finely
ground coee.
NOTE: DO NOT use paper filter in conjunction
with the permanent filter, as this could cause
water and/or coee to clog or back up in the
filter basket.
• To reduce the amount of sediment in the
brewed coee, use a slightly coarser grind
or use a paper filter.
There are grounds in my coee.
• Either the permanent filter (not included on all
models) or a paper filter must be inserted into
filter holder when brewing.
• Using too many grounds can cause the filter
holder to overflow. Once cooled, clean out the
filter holder and refill using the appropriate
amount of coee (1 scoop=2 cups).
• Finely ground coee can clog the filter holder.
For best brewing results, use
a medium-grind coee.
Paper filter is folding over.
• The unit is designed to take a #4 cone filter. Be
sure you are using this size and shape, as larger
sizes may fold over. Allow the filter holder to
cool before handling. Be sure the paper filter is
folded along its two seams and is pressed firmly
into the filter holder. Alternatively, you can wet
the sides of the paper filter to temporarily adhere
it to the filter holder.
Coee is too weak.
• For stronger coee, use the Rich Brew setting.
If you want an even bolder flavor, you can add
more coee grounds to the filter.
Coee is too strong.
• For milder coee, try the Classic Brew setting. If
you want an even milder flavor, use fewer grounds
in the filter.
Coee is leaking.
• After removing the water reservoir, there may be
a small amount of water in the reservoir valve. This
can be easily removed with a dry cloth.
• If the leak is coming from the bottom of the brew
basket, the removable filter holder valve may be
clogged. Rinse the filter holder with water and
press the valve repeatedly until the clog is cleared.
• For best results, ensure the filter holder is properly
installed.
• If the leak is coming from the bottom of the coee
maker, call Customer Service at 1-877-646-5288.
Brew will not start.
NOTE: We recommend using medium-grind
coee.
NOTE: The brew will begin, pause, and then
continue. This process is used to evenly
saturate the coee grounds.
• Ensure the unit is powered on and the display
is illuminated. If there are no lights, the machine
is not getting power. Try a dierent outlet and
press the Power button.
• Check to make sure there is water in the water
reservoir.
• Make sure the carafe is in place. The brewer
will not dispense coee if the carafe is not
under the brew basket. If it is not in place, the
brew will remain in the brew basket, which
could lead to overflow.
• If the brew still does not start, it may be time to
run a clean cycle. Please refer to the Cleaning &
Descaling Your Brew System section.
Brew cycle is too slow.
• If full carafe classic brews are taking longer
than 25 minutes, or full carafe rich brews
are taking longer than 30 minutes, you may
need to run a clean cycle. Please refer to
the Cleaning & Descaling Your Brew System
section.
Carafe overflowed.
• The carafe may not have been empty prior to
brewing, or the water level exceeded the
14-Cup line on the water reservoir prior to
brewing. Reminder, DO NOT add additional
water to the reservoir after a brew or cleaning
cycle has already started.
• The carafe holds 70 fl. oz.To avoid overflows,
make sure carafe is empty prior to brewing
and the water reservoir is not filled past the
14-Cup line.
Brew basket overflowed.
• Check that the carafe is in place with the lid
secured. If the carafe is in place, the bottom
of the filter holder may be clogged. This can
happen with finely ground coee or too many
coee grounds in the filter holder. Rinse the
filter holder with water and press the valve
repeatedly until the clog is cleared.
• Decaf coee grounds will absorb water
dierently. Use fewer scoops when using decaf
grounds.

CARE & MAINTENANCE
CLEANING AFTER A BREW
1 After the unit has cooled, remove the filter
holder from the brew basket. If using a paper
filter, empty the used grounds and discard it. If
using the permanent filter, wash it thoroughly
with soap and warm water or place on the top
rack of the dishwasher.
2 Empty the water reservoir and hand-wash or
place in the dishwasher with opening facing
downwards. We recommend thoroughly
washing the water reservoir weekly.
1 Set the empty carafe beneath the brew basket.
2 Use a descaling solution specifically formulated
for coeemaker cleaning
and follow the directions on the package. Fill
the water reservoir up to, but not exceeding,
the 14-Cup Line (70 fl. oz.).
OR
Add 16 oz. of white vinegar to the water
reservoir, then fill the rest of the reservoir with
water up to, but not exceeding, the 14-Cup
Line (70fl. oz.).
NOTE: For best results, we recommend rinsing the
reservoir after brewing and refilling with fresh water
the next time you brew.
NOTE: The clean cycle takes approximately
75 minutes. If you cancel the clean cycle, your
machine will not be properly descaled.
NOTE: The glass carafe, brew-through lid,
removable filter holder, permanent filter, water
reservoir, water reservoir lid, and scoop are
dishwasher safe.
NOTE: Hard water will cause scale buildup
faster than soft water and the brewer will
indicate it needs cleaning more often.
IMPORTANT: Use only white vinegar.
NOTE: Running a water-only clean cycle will
not descale the brewer properly.
3 We recommend cleaning your carafe with
warm, soapy water, or placing it on the top
rack of your dishwasher. If you want to clean
the carafe more thoroughly, we recommend
using a soft foam brush. DO NOT use a wire
brush.
4 After the coee maker has cooled, wipe
down the main unit, showerhead, and water
reservoir shelf with a cloth and warm water.
DO NOT immerse the coee maker in water.
CLEANING & DESCALING YOUR BREW SYSTEM
The clean function allows you to clean your
unit whenever you would like. As a guideline,
we suggest running a clean cycle if full carafe
classic brews are taking longer than 25
minutes, or full carafe rich brews are taking
longer than 30 minutes
NOTE: Make sure the SMALL BATCH button is
not selected/illuminated.
3 Once the water reservoir is filled with your
cleaning solution or vinegar mixture, press
the CLEAN button. The clean cycle takes
approximately 75 minutes. To cancel the
clean cycle, press the CLEAN button again
or press the Power button.
4 The unit will beep when the clean cycle
successfully completes.
5 Empty the contents of the carafe and place it
back under the brew basket. Clean the water
reservoir with warm, soapy water to remove
any cleaning solution that could aect the
flavor of your coee.
6 Refill the reservoir with fresh water up to, but
not exceeding, the 14-Cup Line and set the
empty carafe beneath the brew basket.
7 Flush the system by running a 14-Cup Classic
Brew cycle with water only. After the cycle is
complete, discard the water and thoroughly
clean the carafe.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
There is sediment in my coee.
• If using a permanent filter (not included on
all models), the sediment at the bottom of
the brewed coee may be due to using finely
ground coee.
NOTE: DO NOT use paper filter in conjunction
with the permanent filter, as this could cause
water and/or coee to clog or back up in the
filter basket.
• To reduce the amount of sediment in the
brewed coee, use a slightly coarser grind
or use a paper filter.
There are grounds in my coee.
• Either the permanent filter (not included on all
models) or a paper filter must be inserted into
filter holder when brewing.
• Using too many grounds can cause the filter
holder to overflow. Once cooled, clean out the
filter holder and refill using the appropriate
amount of coee (1 scoop=2 cups).
• Finely ground coee can clog the filter holder.
For best brewing results, use
a medium-grind coee.
Paper filter is folding over.
• The unit is designed to take a #4 cone filter. Be
sure you are using this size and shape, as larger
sizes may fold over. Allow the filter holder to
cool before handling. Be sure the paper filter is
folded along its two seams and is pressed firmly
into the filter holder. Alternatively, you can wet
the sides of the paper filter to temporarily adhere
it to the filter holder.
Coee is too weak.
• For stronger coee, use the Rich Brew setting.
If you want an even bolder flavor, you can add
more coee grounds to the filter.
Coee is too strong.
• For milder coee, try the Classic Brew setting. If
you want an even milder flavor, use fewer grounds
in the filter.
