CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

Section 4

Cleaning & Descaling

The iCoffee Brewer must be cleaned when you notice that the brewing

time has increased considerably. The condition is caused by build-up of

lime and mineral deposits

in the heater from hard

tap water. The frequency

of cleaning depends

on the hardness of tap

water used. The following

table gives a suggested

cleaning schedule.

Descaling Procedure

1. Fill the iCoffee Brewer water reservoir with household white vinegar to

the 4-cup level mark.

2. Turn on the Brewer to heat and circulate the vinegar into system.

3. Carefully watch the vinegar level in the reservoir until the vinegar level

disappears,

4. AND IMMEDIATELY TURN OFF THE Brewer.

5. Let the vinegar sit in the Brewer heater for 30 minutes to dissolve the

internal mineral scale.

6. After 30 minutes, empty the carafe then ll the reservoir with plain

water to the 12-cup mark, AND TURN BACK ON THE Brewer.

7. When the water level in the reservoir has emptied,

8. TURN OFF THE Brewer.

9. Discard the vinegar in the glass carafe.

10. Your iCoffee brewer is now Sanitized, Descaled and ready to Brew

Great Coffee.

Cleaning Brew Basket

1. Remove drip basket and brew basket together.

2. Rinse drip basket.

3. Discard used coffee grounds and fully rinse brew basket.

4. Place the brew basket, brew basket lid, and drip basket in the top

rack of the dish-washer if desired.

Cleaning Carafe

1. Fill carafe with a solution of equal parts of tap water and white

household vinegar. Let stand for one hour.

2. Discard the solution and wash and rinse carafe.

Cleaning & Descaling

Type of Water Cleaning Frequency

Soft Water Every 80 brew cycles

Hard Water Every 40 brew cycles

Puried Water Every 100 cycles

Do not use harsh abrasives that may scratch the carafe;

scratches may cause the carafe to break.

brewing instructions

You may notice a nely extracted coee essence (sediment) in your cup

and carafe after brewing. This is normal, and a result of our patented

SteamBrewTM Extraction Technology which eliminates any bitter and

acidic aftertaste, ensuring only rich and "Impossibly Smooth" tasting

coee. If you prefer less nely extracted coee essence, please use the

optional lter.

Before brewing, we suggest you adjust the amount of coee you

normally use. iCoee users have reported adjusting the amount they

use by adding more or using less coee in the SteamBrewTM basket to

achieve the strength and avor they prefer.

Please use medium to coarse ground coee in the SteamBrewTM

Premium Gold Tone Filter. Avoid using a ne or extra ne grind. The

SteamBrewTM Premium Gold Tone Filter forever eliminates disposable

paper lters.

PLEASE READ

If you prefer less nely

extracted coee essence

(sediment),

place the

optional

lter in

carafe as

shown.

To clean, remove and rinse

thoroughly with water.
