Cleaning

Regular cleaning ensures long life. For dirt or smudges on the brewer’s exterior, a damp cloth will suffice. If necessary, a non-corrosive, non-abrasive detergent or cleaner may be used. Be sure to unplug the appliance before cleaning. Check and clean the sprayhead ensuring the holes remain open to provide optimal brewing.

Directions for Cleaning Glass Decanters

Use daily for best results

1. Shake bottle. Apply 3-4 squirts (approx. 1/4 oz. Per 1 gal. of liquid) of Klearly Koffee into the decanters
   (not included). Add very hot water (not boiling).
2. Use a carafe brush for best results on tough stains.
3. Empty solution and rinse vessel thoroughly with clean, warm water. Air dry or wipe clean before next use.

The Importance of Deliming

To prolong your coffee brewer’s life and maintain a consistent, quality product, regular deliming is recommended. When hard water is heated, minerals are left behind which can inhibit optimum performance. You should perform the following deliming process at least every 6 months. If your water is extremely hard, monthly deliming is recommended.

Deliming Procedure 

• Mix 10 oz. of fresh or condensed lemon juice with 32 oz. of water and pour it into the water reservoir.
• Make sure an empty decanter is underneath the funnel, and turn the unit “ON” as if you are brewing a pot of coffee.
• If the brewer has stopped working, the use of a deliming spring (sold separately) may be necessary to loosen lime deposits in the spray head.
• After the brewer has completed its cycle, turn it “OFF” and empty the decanter.
• Run two or three brewing cycles of plain water through the machine to rinse out all traces of the lemon water solution before brewing more coffee.

If the brewer suddenly stops working during a normal brewing cycle, deliming may be necessary.

20” Deliming SpringThis deliming spring fits into the sprayhead opening of pour-over coffee makers to loosen lime deposits. Made of stainless steel. Sold Separately.
