There’s sediment in my coee.

•

If using a permanent ﬁlter, the sediment at the bottom of the brewed coee may be

due to using ﬁnely ground coee.

•

To reduce the amount of sediment in the brewed coee, use a slightly coarser grind or

use a paper ﬁlter.

NOTE: We DO NOT recommended using a paper ﬁlter in conjunction with the

permanent ﬁlter, as clogging and backing up of water and/or coee in the ﬁlter

basket can occur.

OVER ICE Brew and COLD BREW are not cold.

• Ensure your cup, travel mug, or carafe is ﬁlled all the way to the top with ice

cubes before brewing. Your Ninja Hot & Cold Brewed System™ will brew at

elevated temperatures to lock in the best ﬂavor, then the ice will cool the

brewed coee or tea to the perfect temperature.

Coee or tea is too weak.

• COFFEE: For stronger coee, use the RICH brew setting, try darker roast beans,

or use the permanent ﬁlter rather than a paper ﬁlter. If you want an even bolder

ﬂavor, you can add more coee grinds to the brew basket. Additional grinds do

absorb liquid, so you will have a more concentrated, smaller cup of coee.

• TEA: For stronger tea, use the RICH brew setting, or add more tea to the

brew basket.

Coee or tea is too strong.

• COFFEE: For milder coee, use the CLASSIC brew setting, use lighter roast

beans, or use a paper ﬁlter rather than the permanent ﬁlter. If you want an

even milder ﬂavor, you can put fewer coee grinds in the brew basket.

• TEA: For milder tea, use the CLASSIC brew setting, or use less tea in

the brew basket.

Brew cycle is too slow.

• Depending on your settings, your brew time will vary from around 4 minutes

to 18 minutes. The progress bar on the control panel will indicate brew status.

Cup or travel mug overﬂowed.

• Ensure you are using at least a 12 oz. cup for the Cup size, 14 oz. cup for the

XL Cup size, 16 oz. travel mug for the Travel Mug size, and 20 oz. travel mug

for the XL Multi-Serve size.

Brew basket overﬂowed.

• The bottom of the ﬁlter holder may be clogged. This can happen with ﬁnely

ground coee or too many coee grinds in the brew basket. Medium-ground

coee is recommended.

NOTE: When using a paper ﬁlter, do not use the permanent ﬁlter.

CLEANING & DESCALING

YOUR BREWING SYSTEM

The CLEAN button will illuminate when

a cleaning cycle is recommended for

your unit, as calcium scale buildup

could be aecting the ﬂavor of your

coee or tea.

To clean and descale your

Ninja

Hot & Cold Brewed System™:

1 Select the Full Carafe size and

set the empty carafe beneath

the brew basket.

2 Use a descaling solution speciﬁcally

formulated for coeemaker cleaning

and follow the directions on the

package. Fill the water reservoir up

to, but not exceeding, the Max Fill

line (50 oz.).

Fill the water reservoir to the Travel

Mug line (16 oz.) with white vinegar,

then ﬁll the rest of the reservoir with

water up to, but not exceeding, the

Max Fill line.

IMPORTANT:

Use only white vinegar.

3 Once the water reservoir is ﬁlled

with your cleaning solution and

water mixture, press the CLEAN

button (Fig. 22).

IMPORTANT: If you cancel the

clean cycle, your machine will

not be properly descaled.

4 The clock will display and count

down the remaining clean cycle

time, which takes approximately

60 minutes to complete. Your

unit will deliver a small amount of

cleaning solution to distribute it

through the system. It will then pause,

deliver additional cleaning solution,

and continue for 60 minutes. The

extended pauses allow for maximum

cleaning and descaling.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT remove the

carafe at any time throughout the

clean cycle.

5 Upon completion, the brewer will

beep, the clock will display End,

and the CLEAN light will turn o.

6 Empty and thoroughly clean the

carafe and water reservoir with warm,

soapy water to remove any cleaning

solution that could aect the ﬂavor

of your coee or tea.

7 Fill the reservoir with fresh water

up to, but not exceeding, the Max

Fill line and set the empty carafe

beneath the brew basket.

8 Flush the system by running a Full

Carafe, Classic Brew cycle with water

only. After the cycle is complete,

discard the water and thoroughly

clean the carafe.

NOTE: The clean cycle takes

approximately 60 minutes.

NOTE: To cancel the clean cycle, press

the Power button or CLEAN button

once. The unit will beep and stop

brewing through the cleaning mixture.

Continue to follow the instructions

starting at Step 6.

NOTE: If the CLEAN light illuminates

again, then calcium buildup is still

present. Repeat the cleaning cycle

instructions from the beginning, and

the CLEAN light will automatically turn

o when your brewer is clean.
