• Place the appliance on a flat surface. Plug the power cord into the socket.
• Fill the water tank with fresh water to the desired amount. Place a filter paper (1x4) in the filter holder. Place the recommended amount of coffee into the filter.
• We recommend that you use filter ground coffee, 60 g per litre of water. Experiment with the coffee quantities for the first few brewing’s to find the amount which you think is optimal.
• We also recommend that you use a Wilfa scale for best results.
• Attach the filter holder to the bracket and turn it clockwise for locked position.
• We recommend the following ratios of water and coffee (please note that different grinds and coffee types will influence these ratios somewhat):
1,25 l - 75g
1 l - 60g
0,75 l - 45g
0,5 l - 30g
• Press the start button to start the brewing process.
• When the brewing process is complete, the unit will switch over to the keep warm state. The start button will remain lit up. After 40 minutes the coffee maker will automatically be switched off. If you want to switch off the coffee maker before 40 minutes (with light in start button) just press the start button once and the coffee maker will be switched off.
TIPS
• Rinse the coffee filter in water to remove any unwanted taste prior to brewing.
• Always use fresh coffee. You will obtain the best results if the coffee you use is freshly ground. Grounded coffee loose many of its aromas just after a few minutes and by grinding the coffee yourself just before you brew, you keep all the good aromas for the best coffee taste.
• You can use one of Wilfa’s coffee grinders suitable for grinding filter coffee. Using different degrees of grinding will affect the coffee’s strength and taste.
• If even hotter coffee is desired, the glass jug should be rinsed with hot water prior to brewing. This is especially recommended if you are making 0.5 litres of coffee or less.
• If the coffee maker has not been used for a while it is recommended to run clean water through the unit prior to use.
• Coffee residue will always stay on parts in contact with the coffee. For optimal coffee taste, you should clean the filter holder, jug and jug lid regularly.
• Do not use the coffee jug to fill the water tank with fresh water as coffee residues will influence on the quality of the brewed coffee.
