THE QUEST
FOR THE PERFECT
CUP OF COFFEE
Element 1: Water
Coffee is 98% water. The quality of that
water is as important as the quality of
your coffee. If water doesn’t taste good
from the tap, it won’t taste good in your
coffee. Cuisinart includes a charcoal
water lter to remove chlorine, bad
tastes and odors, for the purest coffee
avor, every time you brew.
Element 2: Coffee
While coffee is 98% water, all of the
avor comes from the beans. To achieve
the same great taste you enjoy at a
coffee bar, buy only a two-week supply
of fresh coffee beans at a time. Once
the bean is broken, its avor degrades
quickly. That’s why Cuisinart grinds your
beans just prior to brewing.
Element 3: Grind
The grind is critical for proper avor
extraction. If the grind is too ne,
overextraction and bitterness will result.
Too ne a grind may also clog the lter.
If grind is too coarse, the water will pass
through too quickly and the maximum
avor will not be extracted. Your
coffeemaker is preset for medium, the
optimal grind for this type of brewing
process.
Element 4: Proportion
Coffee that is too strong or too weak
is always a disappointment. Follow the
recommended portions of whole beans
or ground coffee in the instructions
under MAKING COFFEE, and later
adjust the amount to your taste.
DO NOT OVERFILL OR THE GRINDER
COULD MALFUNCTION AND/OR
OVERFLOW.
