Used ground coffee and the paper filter can be disposed in the trash or compost. The filter basket holder should be cleaned regularly with soap and water. The glass carafe should be rinsed after every cycle and regularly washed with soap and water. Your coffee machine should be descaled periodically or whenever the brew cycle has slowed noticeably. It is recommended to descale at least every 3 months using a descaling solution designed for use in coffee machines. Before descaling remove the permanent filter (if applicable) from the brew basket. Press ON and let 1/2 the water run through and into the carafe, then turn the machine off. Discard the water and run another cycle with clean water to rinse the system. The warranty excludes coffee machines which have stopped working or do not work properly due to lack of descaling.

Arabica beans provide the best flavors and have less caffeine and while Robusta beans are easier to grow and less expensive, they have less flavor and higher caffeine content. Robusta beans are sometimes used in blends to add a particular bitterness to the brew. Beans can be roasted very lightly to provide a smooth aromatic taste or roasted dark to provide stronger flavors, and anywhere in between. A good roaster will be able to describe the flavors that the beans will impart to your brewed coffee. Note: Experiment with different beans and different roasts to identify one or several that suit your tastes. The amount of ground coffee must be carefully measured against the volume of water for each brew cycle. A small amount of coffee would be overwhelmed by a large volume of hot water. Maximum capacity is slightly more than 50 oz total water volume before brewing. The volume of brewed coffee will be slightly less because the ground coffee will absorb a certain amount. Krups recommends using 7 grams of ground coffee per 5 oz cup of water.
