BREWING A BETTER CUP

• This Bonavita coffee brewer is engineered to heat the brewing water to within the 195°- 205°F (91°-96°C) range. The heating elements in the Bonavita coffee brewers are designed to deliver the correct temperature water over the correct brewing time.

• For ideal extraction levels, brew your coffee in 3-5 cup batches, with a fresh, filtered, cold water.

• Brewing time is about 5 minutes for 5 cups of coffee. This will allow for a proper water flow and saturation time.

• The quality of the coffee has a great impact on brewed coffee’s flavor. Using freshly roasted beans and grinding the beans just before brewing are important consideration. We recommend using coffee within a couple of weeks of its roast date. Air tight storage will help extend your coffee’s lifespan.

• Grinding coffee is another key point on the timeline of flavor and perishability. Once coffee is ground the air begin to attack essential oils and other volatile flavor component. It’s only a matter of hours before most of the ground coffee’s aroma has evaporated. Sometimes pre-grinding can’t be avoided, but if it can, delay until shortly before brewing.

• For the most consistent results, Bonavita recommends measuring coffee by weight, using 10 grams of coffee per cup.

• Measuring coffee by volume is less consistent. For example, two tablespoons of drip grind coffee can weigh between 6 grams of dark roast coffee to 11 grams of light roast coffee. Bonavita recommends beginning with two level tablespoons of drip grind coffee as a starting point with your preferred roast and adjust according to your taste.

• Keep the filter basket, water tank, and carafe clean.

• For maximum heat retention we recommend rinsing the carafe with hot water shortly before the brew begins.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Proper care will ensure years of service from this coffee brewer. Aside from keeping the brewer clean and descaling when necessary, there is no user maintenance required. This brewer contains no internal user serviceable parts. Leave servicing and repairs to qualified personnel.

Cleaning the coffee Brewer

Use a soft, damp cloth and a mild dish cleaning liquid for cleaning the housing.

The filter basket may be cleaned in the top rack of a dishwasher.

Cleaning the STAINLESS-STEEL Thermal Carafe

The carafe is manufactured to the highest standards and will last for many years if handled properly. If coffee is left in the carafe for too long, the stainless lining will become discolored. For cleaning, we recommend using Full Circle coffee machine cleaning powder.

CAUTION

Always unplug the coffee brewer before cleaning.

DESCALING

In hard-water areas, scaling from limestone content in the water may build up in your brewer. Scaling can lead to extended preparation time and possible damage to your Bonavita coffee brewer.

We recommend that you descale your brewer after every 100 brew cycles, or once every three months. However, if the brewer makes an unusually loud noise, extends brew time, or fails to achieve the recommended water temperature of 195°-205°F (91°-96°C), you may need to descale more often.

We recommend using Full Circle descaling powder, which is designed to break down mineral build-up inside your brewer to ensure great coffee and consistent functionality. Do not use vinegar, which may not effectively descale your brewer, and may leave behind an odor that can impact the flavor of your coffee.
