Sanitation Requirements
Your IntelliFresh brewer is Factory Pre-Set and Ready to Go… Right from the Box.
Following are the Factory Settings for IntelliFresh brewer:
• Brew Temperature = 200°F • Water Bypass = On LARGE & MEDIUM brew only
• Brew Volume = Large-Medium-Small • Energy Save Mode = Off
• Quality Timer = 120 Minutes • Warmer Auto-Off = 10 Hours
System Requirements:
• Water Source 20 – 90 PSI (Minimum Flow Rate of 1 GPM)
• Electrical: See attached schematic for standard model or visit www.wilburcurtis.com for your model.
SETUP STEPS
The unit should be level (left to right and front to back) and located on a secure counter top. Connect a water
line from the water filter with a minimum flow rate of 1 gallon per minute to the brewer.
NOTE: A water filtration system may be used to maintain trouble-free operation. In areas with extremely hard
water, we suggest that a sedimentary and taste & odor filter (Curtis p/n CSC5AC00, CSC10AC00, & CS-
C15AC00) be installed. This will prolong the life of your brewing system and enhance coffee quality.
1. A 3/8”Flare x 3/8” Male pipe elbow is supplied with the brewer for water line connection. Use tubing sized
sufficiently to provide a minimum of 1.0 GPM.
2. Connect the unit to an appropriate electrical power circuit.
3. Turn on the toggle (STANDBY/ON) switch behind the unit. The heating tank will start to fill. When the water
level in the tank rises to the correct volume, the heating elements will energize automatically. With the
IntelliFresh brewer, there is no danger of element burnout caused by overheating an empty tank.
4. The heating tank typically requires 20 to 30 minutes to reach operating temperature (200°F), indicated
when READY is displayed on the LCD screen.
5. Prior to brewing, dispense 12 ounces of hot water through the hot water faucet.
6. Brew a cycle of at least 12 ounces, to purge the water lines of any air that may be trapped after filling.
