BREWING TEA BOILING OR HEATING WATER
Selecting the ‘Basket Cycle’ Feature
This feature continuously auto lifts and
lowers the Basket during the tea brewing
cycle. This movement loosens the tea leaves
within the Basket, allowing the heated water
to circulate freely around the tea leaves for
maximum infusion.
NOTE
The ‘Basket Cycle’ can significantly
increase the rate of infusion and affect
the tea strength. You may consider
reducing the initial tea strength /
brew time (see Page 16 and 21) when
using the ‘Basket Cycle’ feature.
NOTE
It is recommended that this feature
is used only when making between
1000mL (approx. 4 cups/32oz.) to
1200mL (approx. 5 cups/40oz.).
USE AS A VARIABLE
TEMPERATURE KETTLE
The Tea Maker can be used for boiling
or heating water to a customizable
temperature.
NOTE
If you have used the Glass Jug for
making tea we recommend thoroughly
cleaning the interior of the Jug and
removing the Tea Basket before
boiling or heating water.
1. Fill the Glass Jug with the desired
amount of water. Do not fill over
the water maximum mark (1500mL
WATER MAX).
a) To boil water (212°F):
Press the left
ARROW UP button
to increase the temperature to 212°F.
The ‘Custom’ LED will automatically
illuminate.
b) To heat water to a customized
temperature:
Press the left
ARROW UP button
to increase the temperature, or the left
ARROW DOWN button to decrease
the temperature. The temperature can
be adjusted in 5°F increments from
120 to 205°F, then a maximum of 212°F
(or in the Celsius mode, 5°C increments
from 50°C to a maximum of 100°C).
The ‘Custom’ LED will automatically
illuminate.
NOTE
Once a customized temperature has
been selected and one tea making
or water heating cycle has been
activated, the customized temperature
setting will remain in the memory of
the Tea Maker until you change it. To
return to default settings, see Page 32.
2. Press the HOT WATER|Cancel button
to start the cycle. The button surround
will illuminate and the LCD screen will
display ‘ON’ and the real-time heating
progress in increments of 5°F.
3. The brew temperature cannot be
changed once the heating cycle
commences. To change the brew
temperature, press the HOT
WATER|Cancel button to cancel the
heating cycle. Re-select the brew
temperature (see Page 15).
4. Once the selected temperature is
reached, the tea alert will sound
three times. The LCD screen will
automatically display the ‘Time Since
Brew’ function. This function counts
up to a maximum of 60 minutes,
allowing you to monitor when the
water heating cycle was complete. It
does not activate the heating elements.
5. The Tea Maker has a ‘Keep Warm’
Feature that allows brewed tea or heated
water to remain warm for up to 60
minutes. This feature can be activated
before, during or after the water heating
cycle (see Page 17, To Activate the
‘Keep Warm’ Feature).
1. To activate the ‘Basket Cycle’ feature,
press the BASKET button once. The
button surround will illuminate and the
LCD screen will display BASKET CYCLE.
2. During the brewing cycle, the BASKET
button surround will flash while the
Basket slowly lifts and lowers within the
heated water.
3. The ‘Basket Cycle’ feature can be
canceled anytime during the tea brewing
cycle. Press the BASKET button once. The
button surround will cease to illuminate
and the LCD screen will no longer display
BASKET CYCLE. The Basket will return
to the bottom of the Glass Jug for the
remaining brewing time.
