7. If you wish to serve a cup of coffee before brew cycle is completed, simply remove
carafe from warming plate. Dripping will automatically cease. Return carafe to position
on warming plate within 30 seconds; dripping will resume.
8. Upon completion of the brew cycle, wait about one minute until the brew drip from the
filter basket into the carafe has stopped. Carafe lid should be kept in place to facilitate
safe serving and help keep coffee at proper serving temperature.
9. To keep coffee hot, return carafe to the warming plate after serving. The warming plate
will automatically cycle to maintain ideal serving temperature as long as the
coffeemaker is on.
10. Switch to “Off” when carafe is empty or when unit is not in use.

It is recommended that the coffeemaker should be in “Off” position for 10 minutes
between cycles, in order to allow unit to cool. While unit is in “Off” position dispose of
used coffee and rinse carafe, filter and filter basket in water. Place filter back into basket.

• A clean coffeemaker is essential for making great tasting coffee. Regular cleaning,
as specified in “Care and Cleaning of your Coffeemaker” is highly recommended.
• Always use fresh, cold water in your coffeemaker.
• Fine ground coffee promotes fuller extraction and provides rich, full-bodied coffee.
Regular grind will require slightly more coffee per cup to provide the strength of
a finer grind.
• Store coffee in a cool, dry place. Once coffee has been opened, keep it tightly sealed
in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
• For optimum coffee, buy whole beans and grind them finely in your Sunbeam Blender
just before brewing.
• Do not re-use coffee grounds since this will greatly impair coffee flavor.
• Reheating coffee is not recommended. Coffee is at its peak flavor immediately
after brewing.
• Small oil droplets on the surface of brewed black coffee are due to the extraction of oil
from the coffee grounds. Oiliness may occur more frequently if heavily roasted coffees
are used. Over extraction may also cause oiliness indicating a need to clean
your coffeemaker.
