HOW TO OPERATE
BEFORE FIRST USE
To remove any manufacturing residues in the appliance, we recommend running at least
one brew cycle, with water only, through the appliance. Follow the directions in the HOW
TO BREW section of this manual, but do not use any tea, coee, fruit or other ingredients.
WARNING: If the unit is dry without water at rst use, it may generate
smoke. Please run one brewing cycle with water only rst.
HOW TO BREW
1. Place the appliance on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface, away from any edge.
2. Fill the pitcher with fresh, cold water to the WATER line marking. Lift the Top Cover and pour
water into the Water Reservoir.
NOTE: DO NOT exceed MAX water line on inside of Water Reservoir. If
too much water is poured into the Water Reservoir, it will overow into
the Filter Basket and down the back of the body of the unit.
3. Set the Flavor Extraction Chamber in place.
4. Place your coee grounds, tea bags or loose tea in the Flavor Extraction Chamber
according to the Coee & Tea Measurement Guide below. You may tweak the
measurement suggestions to t your personal taste and strength preference.
Coee & Tea Measurement Guide (Makes 2 Quarts)
Tea Bags (regular size) 6 to 9 bags (2g)
Tea Bags (family size) 2 to 3 bags (6-7g)
Loose Tea 1 to 3 tablespoons, depending on type
Green Tea Bags (regular size) 6 to 9 bags
Herbal Tea Bags (regular size) 6 to 9 bags
Ground Coee 8 to 12 tablespoons
• GROUND COFFEE: Fill the Filter Basket with coee grounds
and place into the Flavor Extraction Chamber.
• LOOSE TEA: Fill the Filter Basket with loose tea and
place into the Flavor Extraction Chamber.
• TEA BAGS: Fill the Filter Basket with tea bags and
place into the Flavor Extraction Chamber.
• SWEETENED TEA: Place a basket-style coee lter into the Flavor Extraction
Chamber, then add tea bags or loose tea, and up to 1 cup of sugar into the
coee lter. Some sugar may remain in the Flavor Extraction Chamber after
the brew cycle has completed, this is normal. Sugar dissolves better with loose
tea than bag tea. The Filter Basket is not used when making sweet tea.
5. Close the Top Cover.
6. Adjust the Brew Strength Selector Dial to your desired strength (1 = mild to 8 = strong).
7. Fill the Pitcher with ice cubes to the ICE line marking.
