Important:
• The “Duo Filter“must only be used with water.
• The coffee machine still functions if the water filter is not in place.
• If the coffee machine has not been used for more than one month, rinse the “Duo filter“
under running water.
• It is recommended not to leave the “Duo Filter“ in place for more than 5 months.
• Your appliance is designed for use with the carafe type (glass or thermal) it was purchased
with. Do not use thermal carafes on coffeemakers purchased with a glass carafe and vice versa.
Before First Use
• Run the coffee machine through one cycle with water only. Do not run with coffee or the
“Duo Filter”(j).
• Remove the“Duo Filter” from its plastic covering. Rinse it under tap water for 1 minute.
• Lift the water reservoir lid (a) and remove the water filtration holder (k).
• Rotate the lower part of the holder and insert the “Duo Filter” into its housing.
• Replace the water filtration holder. The coffee machine is ready to use.
Making the Perfect Cup of Coffee
Making the perfect cup of coffee is something different for everyone. It is an art and a science,
that is not only effected by the coffee that is used, but also the equipment. The water, the
water temperature, the time the water is in contact with the coffee, the grind, the type of filter,
all play an important role in determining the flavor. Fine tuning these aspects is the art of
making the ultimate cup of coffee.
The four main principles :
1. The Water
It is important to use fresh water that you like. Since coffee is 98% water the taste of the water
will come through in the coffee. The Duo Filter system removes chlorine taste, but the better the
water you start with the better the flavor of the coffee.
2. The Coffee
Chose premium fresh whole beans suited to your taste. There are two principale species of
coffee: Arabica and Robusta. Arabica beans are the choice beans with more flavor and less
caffeine. Robusta beans have more caffeine and are more « robust » and are usually used in
blends. The origin of the beans and the roast will determine the flavor. Roasts vary from light to
very dark. Light roasts have a smooth, delicate aromatic taste, medium to medium dark roasts
are slightly stronger, with a full-bodied balanced taste, and dark roasts are bold with smoky
undertones.
3. The Grind
Use the proper grind finesse and grind just prior to brewing. The variation in the grind depends
on the type of filter you use. We prefer paper filters because they allow you to use a finer grind,
thus allowing a full extraction and more contact time with the water. Permanent filters require a
slightly coarser grind therefore the extraction rate is reduced. A general rule of thumb for
grinding is the longer the brew process the coarser the grind.
