CAUTION: Body of percolator will get very hot during brewing. Always use
the handle (Fig. 1, I) when touching the percolator after brewing. Always
wait until the percolator has cooled down sufficiently before attempting to
empty the grounds from the coffee basket.
9. The percolator will remain at serving temperature until it is unplugged.
10. Remove plug from percolator for serving.
11. When finished serving coffee, the plug can be replaced to keep coffee hot.
Always keep the appliance unplugged when not in use.
CAUTION: Do not touch the stainless steel or glass parts of the percolator
until the machine has completely cooled down. The stainless steel and
glass parts will be extremely hot after brewing, always use caution when
handling the hot percolator. Only use the handle (Fig. 1, I) when touching
the hot percolator.
NOTE: We recommend using coffee that has been ground
specifically for use in a percolator-type coffee maker. If grinding
whole beans, set the coffee grinder to a coarse grind. A finely
ground coffee may leave sediment in your cup or cause the
coffee basket to overflow.
Heating Water
The Capresso Perk can be used to make hot water for tea, hot cocoa or instant
coffee.
1. Plug cord into the percolator base (Fig. 4).
2. Remove lid (Fig. 6), coffee basket, coffee basket lid and tube.
3. Fill the body of the Capresso Perk with cold water to the desired cup level
as indicated on the inside of the percolator (Fig. 2).
4. Place coffee basket on tube. Hold the top of the tube and place tube and
coffee basket into the heating well (Fig. 5). (Using the tube and basket will
speed heating time.) Place coffee basket lid on coffee basket.
5. Place lid onto percolator body using the markings to help lock in place.
(Fig. 6). Scalding may occur if the lid is removed during the brewing
cycle! Ensure the cord is plugged into the percolator; then plug the cord
into an electrical outlet. The unit automatically turns on. Water is hot when
indicator light illuminates.
6. Unplug after use.
