3. Starting operation, Filtering
For the initial operation and after longer periods of inactivi-
ty, run the machine with water only before the first prepara-
tion of beverages.
The Melitta System and its principle of unpressurized filte-
ring guarantees a high rate of coffee extraction, i.e. full use
of the flavour and aroma substances in the ground coffee.
The optimum yield and quality can only be achieved, howe-
ver, if the quantity of water is in correct proportion to the gro-
und coffee dosage. This relationship is not always constant,
though. It depends, for example, on the coffee blend as well
as the quantity to be filtered.
If only 1 litre is to be prepared, 7 g/cup might be necessary,
whereas for large quantities 5 g/cup is often sufficient.
This means, therefore, that to maintain a constant coffee
quality a smaller coffee dosage must be chosen for increa-
sing filtering volumes.
A few trial filtering runs might be advisable to discover the
best dosage levels.
• Pre-heat the storage urn before use with hot water and
the heater switched on. The storage urn temperature
immediately rises to 80-85∞ C.
• Please only operate the machine with the condensate
lid (12) in place, in order to prevent any loss of heat or
quality.

• Insert filter paper (fold up embossed bottom) into filter
(11) and fill in ground coffee or tea.
Recommended volumes:
Coffee = approx. 5 - 7 g/cup or approx. 35 - 50 g/litre
Tea = approx. 1.5 g/cup or approx. 5 - 12 g/litre.
Use MELITTA PYRAMID filter papers
