Selecting and Measuring Ground Coffee
For best results, use a level tablespoon for ground coffee measurement. Make
sure you use medium grind coffee for a perfect brew.
Suggested Coffee Measurement Chart
To Brew
12 Cups
10 Cups
8 Cups
6 Cups
4 Cups
1 level tablespoon (tbps) = 5 gr./0.17 oz.
1 cup = 148ml (5 fl. oz.) of brewed coffee
Use more or less coffee to suit your taste.
Adding Water and Ground Coffee
1 Lift and open the coffeemaker lid. For your convenience, you can lift out the
removable filter basket.
2 Place a #4 cone style paper or a permanent filter into
the removable filter basket (Figure 5).
NOTE: If using paper filters, it is important that the
sides of the filter fit flush against the side of the filter
basket. If filter collapse occurs, dampen the filter
before placing in the filter basket and adding ground
coffee.
3 Add the desired amount of coffee and gently shake
to level the coffee. See the Suggested Coffee
Measurement Chart.
4 Be sure the filter is properly centered and all the way
down in the outer filter basket. Close the lid.
5 Fill the decanter with cold, fresh water to the desired capacity (1 cup equals
148 ml/5 ounces). For easy and accurate filling, the water markings on the
glass decanter and on the water level indicator inside the water reservoir
show the amount of water needed to make the corresponding desired number
of cups. Do not fill past the "12 cup MAX line" or water will flow out of the
overfill hole in the back of the water reservoir.
The amount of coffee brewed will always be slightly less than the amount of
water poured in the water reservoir. This is due to the minimum absorption of
water by the coffee grounds.
6 Lift the coffemaker lid and pour the water into the water reservoir. Close the
lid and place the empty decanter onto the warming plate.
