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. To achieve
the same great taste you enjoy at a coffee
bar, buy only a two-week supply of fresh
coffee beans at a time. Once the bean
is broken, its flavor degrades quickly.
That's why Cuisinart grinds your beans
just prior to brewing.
ELEMENT 3: GRIND
The grind is critical for proper
flavor extraction. If the grind is too fine,
overextraction and bitterness will result.
Too fine a grind may also clog the filter.
If grind is too coarse, the water will
pass through too quickly and the
maximum flavor will not be extracted.
Your coffeemaker is preset for medium,
the optimal grind for this type of
brewing process.
ELEMENT 4: PROPORTION
Coffee that is too strong or too weak is
always a disappointment. Follow the
recommended portions of ground coffee in
the instructions under Brewing Coffee, and
later adjust the amount to suit your taste.
NOTE: DO NOT OVERFILL OR THE
GRINDER COULD MALFUNCTION
AND/OR OVERFLOW.
