how to pour the coffee

That is the awkward part, you have to loosen the top, and pour. There is no designated spout, (at least on ours) .it is not a good design at all, it seems to spill coffee every time. I wrote to the company about it, but heard nothing back form them.

Awkward?? This is the easy part and it is the best coffee carafe that has been made. Since there is no designated spot to pour, you just loosen the cap (top) about 3/4 to one turn and pour. You can pour from anyplace on the pot with the design of the top. You can take the top all the way off and pour if you want to also. It is very easy to use but you do have to loosen the top each time.

I've been pouring coffee out of this carafe for over 6 yrs and have never spilled a drop! Half turn to open and pour away...be sure to close to keep your brew warm. Enjoy.

Slightly unscrew the lid and pour through the spout. Tighten the lid when you are finished (to keep the coffee warm).If you loosen the top the coffee doesn't spill. It may seem to be work to loosen the top each time you pour, but that ensures a tight fit and keeps the coffee hot much longer.

Coarsely ground coffee, add to canister. Add hot water-i use a kettle but stovetop is fine. See instructions for suggested exact temp if youre picky. Slowly push down press, moving ground coffee to bottom of canister. Pour into cup directly from canister, it also has a strainer on spout just in case.

Super easy, you push the button on the left to turn the machine on. The button on the right will then start blinking, once it stops blinking it is heated and ready to use. You pop in a capsule (lift lever, there is only one way it fits, very intuitive), lower the lever and press the right (yellow) button. Manual just means that you have to press the button again to stop it. With automatic there is a fixed amount that comes out, with manual you can decide how strong/big you want your coffee to be. Make sure there is water in the reservoir before you use. Once finished, just push the left button again to switch off the machine. Super easy, you push the button on the left to turn the machine on.

Just one small hole, you place the filter in and pour a small amount to dampen the coffee grounds and then slowly fill to your desired cup level. Easy and pure coffee the natural way.

When you put in the paper filter, wet it with water and gently push it down into the cone so it is stuck to the bottom and edges. Then put in your coffee. Wet the grounds with hot water and proceed to half fill with water. Continue slowly adding water until your cup is full. the wet filter sticks to the cone and creates a vacuum so it drains much more slowly. I was tempted to plug one hole before even trying this for the first time but followed the directions in the email that I received after purchasing the cone first and it does work. Too coarse a grind will speed up the drip, too. Mine is just a little finer than traditional drip grind.

Of the two units we have, neither has a special setting to pause the brewing so you can serve the coffee. You simply remove the carafe, pour the coffee, return the carafe and the brewing will continue.

I actually use a standard coffee scoop and lightly tamp it down, then close the top over. You don't want to overfill it.

Put desired ground coffee into bottom of glass canister with press apparatus out. Pour desired amount of very hot water into canister. Then insert press apparatus and gently press it down until it gets to the bottom trapping the ground below and the filtered beverage above.I hate this device and no longer use it. There are no markings to guide how much water to add.

You have to unscrew the carafe lid to pour coffee. Not hard at all. Once poured, tighten lid and coffee stays hot for hours! So far, I'm real happy with the purchase. Real user friendly and nice looking. It is a little larger than the Mr. Coffee we used to own, but looks so much classier.

Add water to a regular coffee cup, place in microwave for 2 minutes, then open the packet of coffee and pour it into the hot cup of water, and stir....enjoy!

It depends on how fine you grind your coffee beans and of course the roast and amount.It's at your discretion. Also, just off the boil water to initially of soak the coffee. Then finish by pouring slowly in a circular motion the amount of water proportionally to the beans. There should be no problem, but it does take some patience.

You heat the water separately. We use a tea kettle (needs to hold at least 35 ounces). Pour in the hot water, stir, wait four minutes, plunge the coffee press, and voila :)

Not sure what you mean???? Are you asking to put the coffee in a carafe???? I'd just lift up the unit (the bucket like thing) and pour it in.

Fill the basket with ground coffee, insert into big piece, cover with cap and turn to secure. Remove the k'cup holder from the Keurig that has the arrow pointing up. Jiggle and pull. Insert the filled basket holder into that opening and brew coffee. Make sure to test the grinds on the coffee you're using if grinding your own. If using already ground coffee, just fill the little basket up to top. Also, it holds more than 2 tbs. Don't pack the coffee too tightly or the water stream will not work properly.

I think some are designed for you to pour the water on top of the coffee in the holder/filter, while others are designed for you to pour the water over the coffee in a pitcher, let it sit 2 minutes, and then pour it through the holder/filter to remove the grounds (similar to using a coffee press). In the former you would want it to drain slowly, in the latter faster.

Put the coffee in the pot with the water. Let it come to a boil and the bubbles rise to the top but NOT boil over. Gently remove it from the heat so that it goes back "down," bring back to boil like that two more times and let it sit for 1 1/2 minutes to let grounds settle. Pour out in equal amounts into cups a little at a time. If you had three cups, for example, filee eacj half way and then portion the rest out so each cup has equal foam. there a fantastic videos on YOUTUBE. Just do a search on youtube for making perfect turkish coffee. the first three choices sow every good variation. If this is not enough, just write back. Enjoy your coffee!
