Frequently Asked Questions - Bianca CM-108S Izzy

How do I descale my Izzy Bianca CM-108S coffee maker?

Mix equal parts water and white vinegar, fill the tank, run a brew cycle, then run two cycles with fresh water. Repeat every 2-3 months for optimal performance.

Can I use paper filters with this coffee maker?

Yes, the machine is compatible with #4 cone paper filters. Alternatively, the permanent mesh filter can be reused.

What should I do if the coffee maker stops brewing mid-cycle?

First, check that the water tank is properly seated and the filter basket is closed. If the keep-warm plate is still on, the machine may have overheated; allow it to cool for 15 minutes before restarting.

How do I clean the carafe and filter basket?

The glass carafe and removable filter basket are dishwasher safe (top rack). Hand wash with mild soap is also fine. Dry thoroughly before next use.

Why is my coffee weak or watery?

Weak coffee often results from using too coarse a grind or too little coffee. Use a medium grind and 1 tablespoon (7g) of coffee per 180ml of water. You may also need to descale if there is mineral buildup.

Does the Izzy Bianca CM-108S have an automatic shut-off?

Yes, the coffee maker automatically turns off after 2 hours of being idle on the keep-warm plate. It also has boil-dry protection to prevent damage.

Can I brew less than a full pot?

Yes, you can brew as little as 2 cups. Ensure the water level covers the minimum mark in the tank and adjust coffee amount accordingly.

The indicator light is flashing. What does it mean?

A flashing light typically indicates the machine needs descaling. Follow the descaling procedure; after completion, the light should become steady.

How do I prevent the coffee from dripping after brewing?

The anti-drip valve stops flow when the carafe is removed. Always wait 30 seconds after the brewing stops before removing the carafe to avoid residual drips.

Where can I find replacement parts for the Bianca CM-108S?

Contact Izzy customer service or check online retailers for official replacement carafes, filter baskets, and permanent filters. Use only genuine parts for safety.

Before the First Use

• Wash the parts of the appliance. See "care and cleaning".
• Run two full tanks of water (without coffee) through the coffee maker to clean it out. See “Use of the coffee maker”.

Using your Coffee Maker

1. Lift the lid (1) using the tab (2) at the front of the coffee maker.

2. Fill the water tank (4) with the desired amount of water. Do not fill above the MAX level.

3. Use cold water. We recommend using filtered water as it reduces limescale and prolongs the life of your coffee maker. Never use ware or frizzy water.

4. Ensure the filter holder (9) is positioned correctly.
5. Fit either the permanent filter (10) supplied or a paper filter into the filter holder (9).
6. Add the coffee using the spoon supplied (approximately 1 tablespoon (7gr.) per cup depending on your taste).
7. Close the lid (1) and put the glass carafe (7) on the hotplate.
8. Plug in.
9. Turn on the coffee maker by pressing the power button ON/OFF (6). The power indicator light will turn on.

Note: You can take out the carafe, pour and serve at any time. The coffee maker will stop dripping automatically for 30 seconds.

1. Remove the carafe from the heating plate at least one minute after the preparation of coffee is completed. When the carafe is empty, turn off and unplug the appliance.

Notes:

The amount of brewed coffee after the brewing process will always be slightly less than the amount of water placed into the coffee maker, since some water is absorbed by the coffee ground or evaporates. Add a little extra water at the beginning so that you end up with the exact number of cups desired.

If you have not used the appliance for a while, run one full tank of water (without coffee) through to clean it out.

The coffee maker will turn off automatically, after 40 minutes of the completion of brewing.

Tips for Great-Tasting Coffee

• A clean coffee maker is essential for making great-tasting coffee. Regularly clean the coffee maker as specified in the “Cleaning and Maintenance” paragraph.
  • Always use fresh, cold water in the coffee maker.
• Fine-cut coffee ensures better filtration, intense aroma and rich flavor. If the coffee is not grounded well enough, slightly put more required amount of coffee per cup to ensure the same taste performance.
• Keep coffee in a cool and dry place. When you open the package of coffee, keep it tightly closed in the refrigerator so as to maintain its freshness.

• For optimal effect, buy whole coffee beans and grind them just before the filtering process.

• Do not use the same coffee for the second time, as this would destroy its aroma.

• Not recommended reheating coffee. Coffee has the maximum aroma, immediately after preparation.
• Small oil stains on the surface of the filtered coffee are due to the extraction of oil from the coffee beans. The oil may also be due to heavy roast coffee.

To Descale

1. Buy a suitable descaler.
2. Descale the machine following the instructions on the package.
   3 After descaling, run at least three full tanks of water (without coffee) through the coffee maker to clean it out.
3. Wash the parts. See "Care and cleaning" section.

Care and Cleaning

• Always switch off, unplug and allow the appliance to cool before cleaning.
• Don't wash parts of the appliance in the dishwasher
• Clean all removable parts of the device after each use with warm soapy water.
• Clean the outer parts of the device with a soft, damp cloth.

CAUTION: Do not immerse the coffee maker in water or any other liquid.

• Do not clean the inside of the water tank with a cloth while as possible remnants of the fabric fibers may clog the coffee maker.
• For stubborn stains, use a synthetic sponge with a light detergent. Do not use wire and abrasive cleaners.
