Process of Brewing Coffee in BLACK+DECKER Coffee Maker

We need to add water for brewing coffee. Fill the water reservoir with cold water up to the measurement mark which indicated the number of cups to brew. Do not fill the water past the measurement capacity of the reservoir, it will be a big mess.

Now we need to place the filter into the filter basket on the top of the maker. Use proper filters which are suitable for the machines, we can also go through the manual of the coffee maker if we aren't sure to use which filter. Some models of Black+Decker especially that grinds the coffee does not require a filter.

After placing the filter it's time to add the coffee of your choice into the filter. Black+Decker recommends using 1 heaping tablespoon of coffee to brew a 6-ounce cup. If you want a strong cup of coffee, add 2 tablespoons of coffee depending on your taste. Disperse the coffee evenly in the bottom of the filter for proper saturation.

Last but not the least, place the carafe with pour through the lid on it and press the ON/OFF button to start brewing. Some of the models of Black+Decker have the sneak-a-cup feature to remove the carafe and fill the coffee cup at any time. With this feature, the machine stops brewing for 20 seconds. After making the coffee and want to turn off the maker presses the ON/OFF button again.

Select the grind settings accordingly for the number of cups brewing. Fill the water reservoir and press the ON/OFF button, now the coffeemaker will grind the beans and brew the coffee.

Cleaning Black+Decker Coffee Maker

We need to clean the coffee maker after using it every time. Throw away the filter and grounds, wash the filter basket, and carafe with hands or dishwasher. Clean the coffeemaker with vinegar once in a month to prevent scale formed due to hard water.

Fill half of the reservoir with white vinegar and a half with water. Put a clean filter in the filter basket and press the ON/OFF button to start the brewing cycle. Let the carafe fill halfway and now turn off the coffee maker. Now make the coffee maker and carafe to soak for 15 minutes and again on the machine to complete the cycle.

Remove the vinegar solution and water from the reservoir and carafe. Pour fresh water and run the machine for brewing to clear out the vinegar from the coffeemaker. Still, if you feel a vinegar smell, repeat the same process until the smell is completely gone.
