BREWER SET-UP BEFORE FIRST USE

1. Remove packaging materials, labels, and stickers from the coffee brewer.

2. Clean the appliance by filling the water tank with clear, cold water to the maximum level mark. Fully insert filter basket until it snaps into place and the indicator on the filter basket handle is fully covered. Place the carafe with the lid removed under the filter basket. Turn the coffee brewer on to allow the water to run through.

3. Let the appliance cool down for 5 minutes before repeating the process. Brew only water through the coffee brewer at least 2 times before brewing any coffee.

BREWING INSTRUCTIONS

Remove the glass carafe and slide the filter basket out of the brewer.

2. Raise the lid of the water tank and pour 4-8 cups of fresh cold water into the tank (Fig. 1). Do not fill above the MAX fill line.

3. Place a basket style filter in filter basket. We recommend a basket filter with a 3 1/4” base dimension. Scoop ground coffee into the filter. We recommend two level tbsp. of drip grind coffee per cup, varying the amount according to your taste (Fig. 2). This equates to approximately 7 to 9 grams of coffee per cup.

4. Slide the filter basket back into the holder until it snaps into place and the indicator on the filter basket handle is fully covered.

5. Remove carafe lid, place the carafe under the filter basket and onto the warming plate. Switch the appliance on. The on/off switch will light up to show that the machine is operating.

6. After the brewing process ends, a beep will be heard once the cycle is complete, remove the coffee-filled carafe from the appliance. To dispose of the used filter and coffee grounds, we recommend dumping it from the filter basket. Rinse the filter basket out, and set aside to dry.

7. To pour and for maximum heat retention, place the lid on the carafe shortly after the brew cycle is complete.

8. The light on the power button will remain on until the hot plate automatically shuts off after 40 minutes.

9. The appliance is equipped with an automatic shut off function which triggers when the brew cycle is complete. The appliance can be switched off manually at any time by using the on/ off switch.

OPTIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR PRE-INFUSION MODE

Freshly roasted coffee has more CO2 trapped in the bean. If you are brewing with freshly roasted coffee, or you would like to pre-infuse the coffee, press and hold the power switch for 5 seconds. At that point the power switch light will flash and 2 beeps will be heard indicating that you’ve enabled the pre-infusion mode. Press and release the power switch a second time to begin brewing. You can disable the pre-infusion mode by pressing the power switch until the light blinks (5 sec.) and a single beep is heard. The brewer will remain in this mode until the mode is turned off or the brewer is unplugged.

BREWING A BETTER CUP

Bonavita brewers are expertly engineered to take the guesswork out of brewing the perfect cup of coffee and produce exceptional, consistent results with every use. Our easy-to-use brewers keep things simple, with great coffee at the push of a single button. Following are a few tips to help you brew an amazing cup of coffee with your new Bonavita brewer:

COFFEE QUALITY, FRESHNESS AND GRIND

The quality of the coffee has a great impact on brewed coffee’s flavor. Using freshly roasted coffee and grinding the beans just before brewing are important considerations. We recommend using coffee that was roasted in the last 30 days for the best flavor. In addition, we encourage use of an air tight container or sealed bag stored in a dark cabinet to help extend your coffee’s lifespan. Grinding coffee significantly speeds up the time in which coffee starts to lose its’ flavor. Once coffee is ground the air begins to attack essential oils and other volatile flavor components. It’s only a matter of hours before most of the ground coffee’s aroma has evaporated. While we encourage grinding your coffee immediately before brewing whenever possible, we know that there are times when pre-grinding can’t be avoided. Whether you are purchasing pre-ground coffee or grinding it just before you brew, we recommend using coffee that is ground to a medium / course setting, similar to course ground salt.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

This manual includes some helpful guidance for maintaining your brewer over time to ensure consistent performance and flavorful beverages. The brewer contains no internal user serviceable parts, and it’s best to leave servicing and repairs to the experts at Support@ Bonavita.life 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 appliance contains no internal user serviceable parts. Leave servicing and repairs to qualified personnel. Use a soft, damp cloth and a mild dish cleaning liquid for cleaning the carafe and the housing. Make sure to rinse thoroughly. The filter basket, brewer lid and glass carafe and carafe lid may be cleaned on the top rack of the dishwasher. We recommend periodically using a coffee machine cleaning product to clean your filter basket and carafe. A coffee machine cleaning product helps remove residual coffee oils, but should not be confused with descaler which removes mineral build up inside your brewer. See our descaling section on the following page for detailed information on this important maintenance process. Please follow the instructions included with your product purchase

CLEANING THE BREWER LID AND SHOWER HEAD:

Always unplug the coffee brewer before cleaning. The brewer lid with built in shower head is removable and can be cleaned on the top rack of the dishwasher.

1. Carefully pull the front edge of the brewer lid to remove.

2. Clean.

3. Re-install lid.

DESCALING

In hard water, scale from limestone content in the water may build up in your machine. Scaling can lead to extended preparation time and possible damage to your coffee brewer. The Metropolitan will produce 3 audible beeps at power on every 60 brewing cycles when it is necessary to descale. However, if the appliance makes an unusually loud noise, delays brew time, or fails to achieve the proper water temperature of 198-205 degrees F (92-96 degrees C), you may need to descale more often. We recommend using a good quality biodegradable and phosphate-free coffee machine descaler. Vinegar may not effectively descale your brewer, and can be difficult to rinse thoroughly. Vinegar can also leave behind an order that may impact the flavor of your coffee.
