INTRODUCTION
• Coffee beans are seeds. We call them beans because of their
resemblance to legumes, but they come from cherry-like coffee
plants.
• Decaf coffee is not 100% caffeine free. An 8 oz cup of decaf coffee
typically contains 2 to 12 mg of caffeine as compared to a standard
cup that has at least 95 mg.
• Johann Sebastian Bach wrote a mini opera about coffee called
"Be Still, Stop Chattering.”
• Caffeine was identified as coffee’s active ingredient in the 1830s
after it got the attention of European politicians who feared the
“wild potion’s” abilities.
• Receptors in our noses shut down after being continually exposed
to the same smell over time. That's why we become "nose blind." A
proven way to stop “nose blindness,” or olfactory habituation, is to
reset our sense of smell by sniffing coffee beans. That's why small
cups of coffee beans are often found in perfume shops.
• In 1964, a Long Island national convenience store chain was the
first to offer fresh coffee in to-go cups.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
WARNING: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). This plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If
the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any
way or force it into the outlet. This could result in injury or electric shock.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards of
entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable
power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used
if care is exercised in their use.
If a longer detachable power-supply extension cord is used:
1. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least
as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
2. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or
tripped over unintentionally.

come out and cause burns.
• Only water should be used in the water tank. Never put milk or any other
liquid into the water tank. Only use water in water tank.
• For best results, we recommend using filtered water.
TROUBLESHOOTING AND FAQS

• Only the included glass frothing mug can be used to froth with the
Froth + Brew™.
• Cold Froth and Brew cannot be used in the same cycle because the
resulting drink is lukewarm.
• Any kind of milk can be used with the Froth + Brew™, but different types of
milk will create different kinds of froth.
• Use froth immediately after frothing to prevent separation.
• Whole bean coffee will stay fresh longer than grounds. For best results,
grind your own beans at home.
