How To Clean
1.
After each use, unplug cord from outlet then remove cord
from the coffee urn. Let cool before cleaning.
2.
Remove cover, coffee basket and stem. Wash these in hot
soapy water. Rinse and dry. These parts can also be placed
in dishwasher. Do not put urn in dishwasher.
3.
Fill the coffee urn half full with hot water. Add a drop of
liquid dishwashing detergent and wash the inside of the
coffee urn. Use a scouring pad and clean the inside of the
heating unit well. This part must be properly cleaned to
maintain the proper operation of the coffeemaker.
To Remove Mineral Deposits and Build-Up
If the coffee urn is used daily follow these instructions every
other week. Fill the coffee urn with 1 quart cold water and
1 quart white vinegar. Assemble with stem, coffee basket and
cover.
Plug in and let go through the perk cycle. When perking has
stopped let sit another 15 minutes. Unplug and drain the
coffee urn. Let cool then clean according to “How To Clean.”
NOTE:
We recommend using coffee that has been ground
specifically for use in a
percolator-type
coffee maker. Although,
coffee marked “For All Coffee Makers” is acceptable. If using a
coffee grinder and whole beans, percolator coffee should be a
coarse grind. A finely ground coffee may cause the coffee
basket to overflow.
To Remove Discoloration
To lighten discolored metal inside the coffee urn, fill the urn
to the 42 cup level. Assemble with stem and coffee basket.
Place 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon cream of tartar into basket
(found in the spice section of supermarket). Place cover onto
coffee urn.
Plug in and let go through the perk cycle. When perking has
stopped let sit another 15 minutes. Unplug and drain the
coffee urn. Let cool then clean according to “How To Clean.”
