2. Clean the carafe, carafe lid, filter basket, drip tray, drip tray shelf, frothing
device, espresso filter, nylon filter, measuring spoon and espresso handle
in either hot, sudsy water, or the top rack of a dishwasher. To remove
stains on the carafe, scrub with baking soda or a mild cleanser. For hard to
remove stains, fill the carafe with hot tap water and add 2 tablespoons of
dishwasher detergent. Let it sit overnight, then wash and rinse.
3. Clean the coffee maker’s exterior and “Keep Warm” plate with a soft, damp
cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, and never immerse
the coffee maker in water.
4. Make a cleaning solution consisting of one part vinegar and two parts
water, then fill water tank.
5. Turn the unit on to begin brewing but be sure no coffee was added to the
coffee filter. The unit should brew your solution only. DO NOT CONSUME
THIS LIQUID.
6. When finished brewing, turn the coffee maker off again and discard the
cleaning solution.
7. Put the empty carafe back on the “Keep Warm” plate and turn the maker
on for a complete drip coffee brew cycle to flush out the remaining cleaning
solution.

•
•
•
Do not allow liquid to evaporate from the carafe while on the “Keep Warm”
plate, or heat the carafe when it is empty.
Never use abrasive scouring pads or cleansers, they will scratch and
weaken the glass.
Do not place the carafe on or near a hot gas or electric burner, in a heated
over or in a microwave oven.
Avoid rough handling and sharp blows to the carafe.
MINERAL DEPOSITS AND CLOGGING (ESPRESSO MAKER)
Mineral deposits left by hard water can clog your maker. Excessive steaming
or a prolonged brewing cycle are signs that a cleaning is needed. The
frequency of flushing out deposits is affected by your usage and water
hardness. In areas of hard water, more frequent flushing of deposits is
necessary. During cleaning, more steaming occurs than when brewing coffee,
