SINGLE-SERVE
COFFEEMAKER
CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE

CLEANING EXTERNAL PARTS

We recommend regular cleaning of the
coffeemaker's external components.
1. Never immerse the coffeemaker in water
or other liquids. The housing and other
external components may be cleaned with
a soapy, damp, nonabrasive cloth.
2. To remove the drip tray, simply lift it
toward you, keeping it level at all times in
order to prevent spills. The drip tray and
drip-tray plate are dishwasher safe. Do not
clean the drip-tray with cleansers, steel
wool pads, or other abrasive materials.

CLEANING THE CAPSULE HOLDER

CAUTION: There are sharp needles that
puncture the capsule above and below.
To avoid risk of injury, do not put your
fingers in the capsule brewing chamber.
1. The capsule holder is top-shelf
dishwasher safe (use a low-temperature
cycle). To remove, lift the handle to open
the brewing chamber. Grasp the top of the
capsule holder and pull up.
2. Cleaning the funnel
To remove the funnel from the capsule
holder, hold the funnel in your left hand,
twist the bottom away from you slightly, and
pull away from the capsule holder to remove.
The funnel is top-rack dishwasher safe.
NOTE: The funnel may be tight the first
few times you remove it; this is normal
and will loosen with continued use.
3. Cleaning the exit needle
The exit needle is located on the inside
bottom of the capsule holder assembly.
Should a clog arise because of coffee
grounds, it can be cleaned using a paper
clip or similar tool. Remove the capsule
holder from the unit, then remove the
funnel from the capsule holder and insert
the paper clip into the exit needle to
loosen the clog and push it out.
Replace the funnel onto the capsule
holder by lining up the tabs in the funnel
with the notches on the capsule holder,
and then twist toward you until the funnel
locks into place. After cleaning, replace
the capsule holder, being sure to align the
arrow on the capsule holder rim with the
arrow on the brewing chamber.
4. Cleaning the piercing needle
The piercing needle is located on the
inside of the brewing chamber. Should a
clog arise because of coffee grounds,
it can be cleaned using a paper clip or
similar tool. Insert the paper clip to loosen
the clog and push it out.
CLEANING THE HOMEBARISTA
REUSABLE FILTER CUP
Simply dispose of coffee grounds, then
hand-wash both the filter cup and filter, or
clean on the top rack of a dishwasher.
