MAKING COFFEE See drawing N° 5 to 13.
1- Open the top lid by pressing the open button (b) and fill the water tank with cold water taking careful note of the number of cups. Use filtered water if possible. The water level indicator displays the number of cups by turning from light to dark as the water level rises. 2- Insert the jug or thermal pot (f) after prewarming by rinsing it out with hot water (prewarming the jug will help keeping coffee hotter) securely in place (e). Be sure the jug sits straight and level on the heating plate/base (e) before starting the brew cycle. 3- Add paper or permanent filter to the filter holder. Krups original accessories (according to model): 16
#4 paper filters 100-pack. Item #983 • #4 size gold tone filter. Item #049 4- Add ground coffee to the into the filter holder or to the permanent filter • Measure one rounded coffee scoop per (140 ml) cup of water. Note : Pay attention to max level indicated on the permanent filter. • This simple step is critical to the taste of your brewed coffee. • See your brewing guide on page 20 for more detail. 5- Close the lid. The machine is ready to brew. 6- For immediate brewing, press the ON/OFF button and the brew cycle will begin. • The ON/OFF button will glow red while the machine is brewing and stay lit for 2 hours while the coffee is kept warm on the heating plate. • You can turn the machine off at any time by pressing the ON/OFF button again. DURING THE BREW CYCLE STEAM RISES FROM THE TOP OF THE MACHINE. BE CAREFUL TO KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM THIS AREA UNTIL AFTER THE BREW CYCLE IS COMPLETED !
The heating plate will maintain the temperature in the jug for 2 hours after which the machine shuts off automatically. This is for safety and convenience. The auto-off time can be adjusted to 1, 2 or 3 hours. See page 17 – Programming the unit. For best results brew only as much coffee as you will drink within 30-60 minutes.
Pause and Serve feature:
You can remove the jug during the brew cycles to pour an early cup. Keep in mind that this will change the taste you would normally get from a full pot in a complete cycle. Be sure to replace the jug quickly (less than 20 seconds) to avoid overflow during the brew cycle. For models with thermal pot : to ensure maximum heat retention, rinse the thermal pot with hot water before use, and close the lid by turning clockwise. Warning :
Hot water continues to drip in the filter holder (h) when the jug (f) is removed. The overflow of coffee and hot water could cause burns.
• Do not exceed the maximum capacity of the water tank as shown by the water level indicator (g). • Place the ground coffee into the paper filter or directly into a permanent filter. Note : Pay attention to max level indicated on permanent filter. After use, discard the grounds, and rinse the filter holder under running water.
When the machine is first plugged in, the clock blinks and ask you for setting the clock.
Press the H and Min buttons to set the time. This will ensure the Auto-On function activates at the proper time of day. If you prefer a 24 hour clock or military time you can switch from AM/PM mode by pressing the H and min buttons simultaneously. The AM/PM symbol will disappear when the clock is running in 24 hour mode. You can press and hold the buttons to move quickly through the hours or minutes.
PROGRAMMING THE UNIT Use the PROG button to access 3 programmable functions. The LCD will display a different function for each
time the PROG is pressed. The blinking display and the icon alerts you that the unit is in a programming mode. After pressing the PROG button the screen should default back to the stand-by mode after 5 seconds of inactivity, accepting the last programmed settings for auto-on and auto-off.
Press PROG (r) once, the AUTO program #1 is indicated with a red light (o).
Press the H and Min buttons (p) to set a time for the machine to brew automatically. You can press and hold the buttons to move quickly through the hours or minutes. The display will show digits with the current time. Regular Strong Press PROG (r) when done.
2- Auto-On setting #2:
Press PROG (r) twice, the AUTO program #2 is indicated with a red light (o).
This second preset start time can be used for days with later start times, ie weekends. After programming the automatic start time as described above, be sure to prepare the machine for a brew cycle with water in the tank, coffee in the brew filter holder, lid closed and jug securely in place. Press the Auto-On button (n) to choose preset number 1 or number 2. You can check the preset times by pressing PROG (r). The machine will brew automatically at the designated time. The program will need to be activated when needed again.
3- Auto-Off setting (only for model with glass jug):
Press PROG (r) 3 times, the number of hours will blink and the 2 red lights (o) on the control panel will blink.
Use the H button (p) to change between 1, 2 or 3 hours. Press PROG when done. This function controls how long the heating plate will continue before automatically turning off. For best results we recommend brewing only as much coffee as you will consume in 30-60 minutes. Taste is affected the longer the coffee is allowed to sit on the heating plate.
AROMA FUNCTION This function is designed specifically for small batches, normally less than 6 cups, where brew cycles become too short to properly extract the coffee taste from the coffee ground.
To activate press the Aroma button (q), then press On. Note : this function cannot be changed once the brew cycle has started. The function can also be used for full pots but will cause more of the bitter flavours to be extracted in that case. Krups recommends only using Aroma Control for small batches less than 6 cups.
DuoFilter Water Filtration: active vegetable based double acting anti-chlorine and anti-scale filter. The anti-chlorine action of the filter brings out the most delicate flavours of the coffee. The anti-scale action allows for longer periods between descaling.
Note: there is a rotary indicator on the top of the water filter holder. This indicates when the DuoFilter should be changed. Place the index mark next to the month the filter should be changed, referring to the chart below. Water type Uses Replace Duo Filter every : Soft water
Example: if you replace the DuoFilter in January (1) you should set the indicator to March (3) or May (5), depending on the hardness of your local water supply: position the number 3 or 5 opposite the index mark.
• The DuoFilter must only be used with water. • The coffee machine still functions if the water filter is not in place. • If the coffee machine has not been used for more than one month, rinse the DuoFilter under running water. • It is recommended not to leave the DuoFilter in place for more than 5 months. • Your appliance is designed for use with the jug type (glass or thermal) it was purchased with. Do not use thermal pots on coffeemakers purchased with a glass jug and vice versa.
CLEANING Turn off the coffee machine and remove the plug from the mains. Do not clean the coffee machine when it is hot. Never immerse the coffee machine in water or put it under running water.
Clean the body of the coffee machine with a damp cloth or sponge.
Open the top lid (a), remove the paper or permanent filter. The filter holder (j) can be washed in warm soapy water and rinsed thoroughly, or cleaned in the upper rack of a dishwasher. We recommend washing carafes by hand with a mild detergent. Do not use scouring agents or harsh cleansers on any part of the coffee machine.
DESCALING Descaling is necessary to keep your coffee machine running efficiently. The frequency of descaling depends on the hardness of your water and how often you use the coffee machine.
If you notice the brew cycle has slowed it is generally time to descale the machine. See the chart below:
Without Duo Filter Water
With Duo Filter Water
Before descaling, remove the filter holder (j).
• You may use either the Krups descaling solution diluted in 1/2 litre of water or 1/4 litre of white vinegar. • Pour the solution or vinegar into the water tank and start the coffee machine (without coffee). • Allow half the liquid to run into the jug, then switch off and let stand for 1 hour. • Restart the coffee machine to complete the cycle. • Rinse the coffee machine by running it through 2 full cycles with water only.
Choose your filter coffee grounds wisely. It is best to use grounds made from premium whole beans from a trusted brand or roaster. Arabica beans provide the best flavours and have less caffeine, while Robusta beans are easier to grow and less expensive, they have less flavour and higher caffeine content. Robusta beans are sometimes used in blends to add a particular bitterness to the brew.
Beans can be roasted very lightly to provide a smooth aromatic taste or roasted dark to provide stronger flavours, and anywhere in between. A good roaster will be able to describe the flavours that the beans will impart to your brewed coffee. Note: experiment with coffee grounds made from different beans and different roasts to identify one or several that suit your tastes.
THE RATIO The amount of ground coffee must be carefully measured against the volume of water for each brew cycle. It is important to use enough coffee to avoid over extraction. A small amount of coffee would be overwhelmed by a large volume of hot water. The jug measures “cups” as 140 ml each. Maximum capacity is slightly more than 1,68 l total water volume before brewing. The volume of brewed coffee will be slightly less because the ground coffee will absorb a certain amount.
Krups recommends using 7 grams of ground coffee per 140 ml cup of water. 7 grams can be measured in one rounded tablespoon. If the resulting brew seems too strong you can adjust by using slightly less ground coffee. If you prefer a much lighter taste it is best to brew at the recommended ratio and dilute the resulting brew with a measure of hot water. This allows the best flavour to be extracted from the beans while avoiding over extraction of too small an amount of ground coffee.
The water is a critical factor in the taste of your brewed coffee. Filtered water is normally the best choice to help avoid the minerals and chlorine that can be found in municipal water systems. However if your water tastes good then it should be good for your coffee. Never pour milk, prepared coffee, tea, etc. into a water tank.
THE GRIND The method of grinding and the level of fineness of the grind have a significant impact on the resulting taste of the brewed coffee. Ideally you should grind fresh roasted whole beans just before brewing. Be aware that this machine is set to brew the most common grinds found on store shelves. Typically pre-ground coffees are of a similar size, medium-coarse. A very fine grind will produce much stronger flavours but risks becoming extracted during the brew cycle producing a more bitter taste. You can learn more about coffee grinding and about Krups range of grinders at our website www.krups.com.
