Compatibility:
This cafetiere is designed for use with standard coffee grounds. It is not compatible with fine espresso grounds, which may clog the filter. Suitable for use with hot water.
Care:
- The glass carafe and removable base are dishwasher safe.
- The lid and plunger assembly should be hand-washed to maintain their integrity and ensure proper function.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the glass or damage the stainless steel filter.
- Periodically check the stainless steel filter for wear and tear. Replacement filters are available.
