Frequently Asked Questions - Gourmet d'Expert EP-RAC50 Zojirushi
How do I set the timer on my Zojirushi EP-RAC50?
Press the Timer button once. The clock will flash. Use the Hour and Minute buttons to set the desired brew time. Press Timer again to confirm. The timer indicator will light up.
Why is my coffee weak even on the strong setting?
Check that you are using the correct coffee-to-water ratio (1-2 tablespoons per cup). Ensure the Brew Strength is set to Strong. Also, clean the permanent filter or use a paper filter. If the problem persists, descale the machine.
How do I clean and descale my coffee maker?
Mix 1 part white vinegar to 2 parts water and fill the water tank. Run a brew cycle without coffee. Let it sit for 30 minutes, then run two cycles of fresh water. For descaling, use a commercial descaling solution or citric acid. The Descale indicator will flash when needed.
What does the "Clean" indicator mean?
The Clean light illuminates after approximately 60 brew cycles to remind you to descale. Follow the descaling procedure above. After descaling, press and hold the Descale button for 3 seconds to reset the indicator.
Can I use paper filters in the EP-RAC50?
Yes, although a permanent gold-tone filter is included. Use standard #4 cone paper filters. Place the paper filter inside the permanent filter basket before adding coffee grounds.
Why does the coffee maker stop brewing mid-cycle?
This is normal when using the Brew Pause function. If you haven't removed the carafe, check that the carafe is properly seated. Also, ensure the water tank is filled to at least the 2-cup line. If the issue persists, the machine may need descaling.
How long does the keep warm function last?
The keep warm feature automatically shuts off after 4 hours. You can also manually turn it off by pressing the Keep Warm button. The carafe is vacuum-insulated to keep coffee hot without power.
What if my thermal carafe stops keeping coffee hot?
Ensure the carafe lid is tightly closed and the inner glass is intact. Vacuum insulation is durable but can be compromised if dropped. Replacement carafes are available as spare parts.
How do I replace the water tank?
The water tank is removable for easy filling and cleaning. Lift it straight up from the machine. To replace, align the tabs and push down until it clicks. Ensure the rubber seal is clean and properly seated.
Can I use reusable K-Cups or other pods?
No, this is a drip coffee maker designed for ground coffee only. Do not use pods or capsules. Use the included permanent filter or paper filters for ground coffee.
