CLEANING AFTER A BREW
CAUTION: Make sure that the brewer is unplugged
from the power source before cleaning.
CAUTION: Be sure to allow the brewer to cool before
cleaning.
NOTE: Do not leave coffee in the thermal carafe for an
extended period of time after a brew.
NOTE: Do not leave water in the reservoir unused for
multiple days. Rinse and replace with fresh water.
1
Before cleaning, close the Drip Stop.

After each brew is complete and the coffee grounds have
cooled, carefully remove the permanent filter and wash. If
using the paper filter, simply discard. Remove brew basket
from the brewer, rinse and wash with soap and warm water.
NOTE: The brew basket and thermal carafe are not
dishwasher safe.
NOTE: If coffee grounds spilled over into the brew basket or
in the overflow channels, remove and rinse under water until
grounds are removed.

Wash the thermal carafe and brew-through lid with soap and
warm water. Use a bottle brush or a cloth to wash the inside
of the carafe.
NOTE: The brew-through lid, permanent filter and water
reservoir are top shelf dishwasher safe.
4
Wipe machine down with a warm cloth with soap and water
to clean the base plate and outer parts. Do not immerse
the base in water.
NOTE: For best results, use a bottle brush. This will allow you
to scrub all of the inside with soap and hot water.
CLEANING YOUR CARAFE
We recommend rinsing your carafe
with warm soapy water.
If you want to clean the carafe more
thoroughly, we recommend using a soft
foam brush such as the one shown.
