1.) Put in the paper filter 2.) Pour in coffee grounds (but how much?) 3.) Fill the pot up with water to the level equivalent to how much coffee to make 4.) Pour wanter into the back of the machine 5.) Flip the "on" switch
Pouring/Drinking Coffee:
1.) Mid-Brewing: the machine stops brewing of you remove the pot, but there are still a few drops of coffee that make it on to the heat plate 2.) Making the coffee is a rather loud process and my roommates sometimes get annoyed by it early in the morning 3.)Post-brewing: grab the pot and pour into coffee cup (ouch the steam!) 4.)Flip the off switch to turn off the heat or leave it on to keep extra coffee warm
Cleaning the machine:
1.) Do not clean while hot (ouch!) 2.) Take out the paper filter and throw it away 3.) Rinse and wash the filter cup and pot 4.) Wipe the heat plate every once in a while (while cool!) 5.) Run the machine without coffee to clean the drip mechanism
