-
Open the lid on the top of the coffee maker. Set a #4 cone-shaped coffee filter into the filter basket. Add 1 tbsp. of ground coffee to the filter for every desired cup.
-
Fill the coffee pot with cold water. Pour the water into the water tank, using the water level indicator on the right side of the unit to keep track of the water level as you fill the tank. Continue until the cup level of the water matches the number of coffee ground tablespoons you added earlier.
-
Discard any excess water from the coffee pot and place the pot on the warming plate. Close the lid on the top of the coffee maker.
-
Press the "ON/OFF" button to turn the coffee maker on and begin brewing the coffee. Remove the coffee pot from the warming plate to use the ME12DPB's "Drip Stop Feature," which continues brewing the coffee but pauses the drip function while you pour yourself a cup. Turn the coffee maker off and allow it to cool down for 10 minutes before brewing another pot.
