Cleaning

filter holder, the carafe and carafe lid in a
solution of hot water and mild liquid soap.
These parts can also be placed in the upper
level of your dishwasher for safe effective
cleaning.
• Never use scouring agents.
• Never immerse the appliance itself in water
or any other liquid. To clean, simply wipe off
with a soft, damp cloth.

Hidden cord storage
• The power cord can be tailored to the length
required by utilizing the hidden cord storage

For best results........
.........always use fresh, cold water (warm
water might be stale and have mineral
deposits which would impair the flavor of
the coffee).
.........we recommend that you grind your
own beans. Freshly ground beans deliver
more aroma and flavor. Use one KRUPS
measuring scoop of beans per cup.
.........serve coffee immediately after
brewing.
.........never reheat coffee.
