THE QUEST FOR THE PERFECT CUP OF COFFEE Element 1: Water Coffee is 98% water. The quality of that water is as important as the quality of your coffee. If water doesn’t taste good from the tap, it won’t taste good in your coffee. Cuisinart includes a charcoal water filter to remove chlorine, bad tastes and odors, for the purest coffee flavor, every time you brew. Element 2: Coffee While coffee is 98% water, all of the flavor comes from the beans.

BEFORE BREWING YOUR FIRST POT OF COFFEE During the manufacturing process, dust can get trapped in your coffeemaker. We recommend flushing out the system before brewing your first pot of coffee. Simply follow “Making Coffee with PreGround Beans,” page 9.

Brew Pause™ Feature Our Brew Pause™ feature interrupts the flow of coffee from the basket to let you pour that first cup mid-brew. Be aware that using this feature will weaken the flavor strength of the finished pot, because the flavor profile of coffee brewed at the beginning of the cycle differs from coffee made at the end. NOTE: Removing carafe for more than 20 seconds may cause filter basket to overflow.
