How To Clean
1. After each use and before washing, unplug power cord from
wall outlet and allow the unit to cool.
2. Carefully remove lid and all internal parts. Parts, coffee
grounds, and remaining coffee may still be hot.
3. Wash the inside of the coffee urn and the parts with warm,
soapy water. Do NOT immerse the base of the coffee urn in
water. The pump tube (with spring), basket, spreader, and lid
can be washed in a dishwasher. When washing the pump
tube, make sure the washer on the bottom remains loose.
If coffee grounds are trapped in this area, hold the pump tube
under running water or use a wooden toothpick to remove
them.
4. Wipe the outside of the coffee urn with a damp cloth and dry
with a towel. Store the coffee urn with the lid off.
5. After repeated use, there may be some coffee stains and
accumulation of oils that can cause a bitter taste. Periodically
use a coffee-stain remover or special cleanser and follow
package directions for cleaning. Rinse well after cleaning.
DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or pads on any part of the
coffee urn.
*1 cup = 5.3 ounces
NOTE: We recommend using coffee that has been ground
specifically for use in a percolator-type coffeemaker. However,
coffee marked “For All Coffeemakers” is acceptable. If using a
coffee grinder and whole beans, percolator coffee should be a
coarse grind. A finely ground coffee may cause the coffee basket
to overflow and result in grounds in coffee.
