A Note About Water

• Your Coffee Maker uses all of the water in the tank every time you brew. Add only as much water as you need for your pot of coffee.
• When brewing coffee, select the correct cup range (2–4 or 5–9). This automatically adjusts brewing time for optimal extraction.
• For best results, always use filtered water. Using distilled water is not recommended.

Water/Coffee Ratio

Note: OXO recommends using approximately 8 grams of medium-ground coffee per cup (5 oz). Coffee dosage recommendations are based on the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) Golden Cup Standard designed for optimal extraction and strength. 1 OXO scoop = approximately 8 grams of medium-ground coffee.

Brewing

1. Add Water to Water Tank
   Only fill to number of cups desired; your Coffee Maker will use all of the water you put in the tank for every brew cycle. Always fill between the 2 cup and MAX fill lines. 

2. Snap in Brew Basket 
   Use #4 cone-shaped paper filter and medium-ground coffee. Do not open the brew basket lid during brew cycle. 
   Note: A small, harmless amount of steam may collect in the water tank after brewing. Leave the water tank lid open after brewing to help reduce the collection of steam.

The cycle automatically pauses for upto 60 seconds when you remove the carafe during the brew cycle. Just replace the carafe to continue brewing. The brew cycle is automatically canceled if the carafe is not replaced within 60 seconds.
  Note: You may see residual drops of coffee on the base when you remove the carafe.
• Silicone Mixing Tube
  The silicone mixing tube blends the coffee while it brews so each sip is equally delicious.

  Note: For the best taste, OXO recommends drinking coffee within one hour of brewing.
• For a Better Cup
  Adjust the grind size to your preference. If the grounds are too coarse, they may produce weak coffee. If grounds are too fine, they may produce bitter coffee. Store coffee beans in tinted, airtight containers.
