There are three presets in the machine.
Program 1 - ECBC standard brew:
Press the button once. The button will turn white to indicate that program 1 has been selected. Designed according to ECBC (European Coffee Brewing Centre) standards to ensure optimal brewing temperature, time, and extraction quality.
Use when: Brewing multiple cups or a full jug.
Program 2 - One-cup brew:
Press the button twice to select the „one cup“ function. The light will turn yellow to indicate that program 2 has been selected. Optimises water flow and contact time to maintain flavour when preparing a single cup.
Use when: You only need one cup and want fresh coffee without brewing a full jug.
Program 3 - Blooming:
Press the button three times to select the blooming function. The light will turn green to indicate that program 3 has been selected. The coffee grounds are prewetted briefly before full brewing, improving aroma and taste. This results in a more balanced and flavourful cup.
Use when: You want a richer, more aromatic coffee, especially with freshly ground beans.

To connect via Bluetooth, press and hold the button until the indicator light turns blue. This indicates that the coffee brewer is able to connect.
• Place the appliance on a flat surface. Plug the power cord into the socket.
• Turn the on/off power switch on. Start button will blink twice and one beep will be heard.
• Fill the water tank with fresh water to the desired amount. Place a paper filter (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. Set the flow control in relation to your desired brew preference.
• 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 | 75 g |
| 1 L | 60 g |
| 0,75 L | 45 g |
| 0,50 L | 30 g |
• Press the start button to start the brewing process.
• By setting the flow control to the right, it will act as a drip stop.
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.
• The enclosed filter holder has a manual drip stop. Wilfa does not recommend serving coffee before the filter process is completed, since this will diminish the final coffee result.
• 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.
• When making cold brew with the cold brew program in the app, fill the water container with water, then ice cubes. Use ice cubes in the cup as well.
