2. Set Up Brew Basket
For brewing into the carafe use the carafe brew basket (with stopper). For brewing into a mug use the single cup brew
basket (cone style). Select the appropriate filter and place into brew basket. Add desired amount of coffee
for taste preference (typically 1 tbsp per cup). Slide the brew basket into the brewer.
CAUTION – Ensure brew basket is completely inserted, otherwise problems may occur such as excessive steam
or overfilling.
Coffee Filter Selection – The carafe brew basket uses a 2-4 cup filter. Filters vary in height. It is important to
select a filter that extends to the top of the brew basket, otherwise coffee grounds may overfill the filter. The
single cup brew basket uses a #2 cone type filter.
3. Position Carafe or Mug
Position an EMPTY carafe or mug in the BREW EXPRESS under the brew basket. The detection sensor
will not allow the brewer to operate unless the carafe or mug is positioned under the brew basket. The brew light
will blink if nothing is detected. When using a cup or mug, place it back far enough to trip sensor.
WARNING: ALWAYS EMPTY CARAFE OR MUG PRIOR TO STARTING THE UNIT OR OVERFILLING WILL OCCUR.
4. Select Water Volume
Select the amount of water by pressing the “2 Cup/ 4 Cup” button. The icons on the button will illuminate to
indicate selection. The volume of water for each setting is 7 to 9 oz (207 to 266 ml) for 2 cup and 17 to 19 oz
(503 to 562 ml) for 4 cup. The volume of water for each setting can be increased if desired. This is done by
increasing the brew time.
To increase brew time:
Select volume to change using the “2 Cup/4 Cup” button.
Press and hold the “2 Cup/4 Cup” button for 5 seconds.
The display now shows the current time duration (default: 2 cup = 70 sec, 4 cup = 140 sec).
Press the “2 Cup/4 Cup” button to increase time. Note, 8 seconds = ~ 1 oz (30 ml).
When the maximum time is reached the display will return to the default duration.
Press “Light” button to finish changing the brew duration.
