Preparing and Using the Ninja Coffee Bar ®

HOW MUCH COFFEE DO YOU GET IN YOUR CUP?

CAUTION: Please ensure that you are using at least a 12 oz. cup for the cup size, 14 oz. cup for the XL Cup size, 16 oz. travel mug for the travel mug size and 20 oz. travel mug for the XL Multi-Serve size to prevent overflow and a scalding injury.

Each size and brew type produces a different amount of coffee to optimize strength, taste, and size.

NOTE: The coffee grounds will absorb some of the water that is brewed, resulting in slightly less brewed coffee than water used.

APPROXIMATE BREW VOLUME

WOULD YOU LIKE A HOTTER COFFEE?

Have you ever wondered why coffee is served in paper cups when you order it to go? The type of cup you brew into can drastically influence the drinking temperature.

PRE-HEATING
  1. After plugging in or turning your brewer on from Power Save mode, press the Power Save button to initiate Pre-heating. You will see your pre-heat LED turn on.
  2. Allow 3 minutes for your brewer to pre-heat.
  3. After 3 minutes, the light will turn off. Your brewer has now pre-heated.
  4. Your Ninja Coffee Bar will in stay pre-warmed mode unless you put the brewer into power save mode by pressing the Power Save Button.

FILLING THE BREW BASKET WITH COFFEE

For best results, use the below measurements of ground coffee for each size brew–the amount of ground coffee for each size will remain the same for any brew type that you select. For example, if you select Cup and Classic Brew, you will use the same amount of coffee grounds as if you select Cup and Over Ice Brew.

CAUTION: The maximum capacity for ground coffee is 12 rounded tablespoons or 6 Ninja Big Scoops. Exceeding this amount or using fine ground coffee may cause overflow.

  1. Open the brew basket by sliding it out of the brewer. (Fig. 14)NOTE: Check for any loose grounds that may be left in the brew basket. Remove and rinse the brew basket if needed.
  2. Place the permanent filter or a #4 paper cone filter in the brew basket. If using a paper filter, first ensure the permanent filter is removed from the brew basket. Then fold a #4 paper cone filter along the seams and insert firmly into the brew basket. (Fig. 15)
  3. Use the Ninja Scoop and follow the measurements in the chart to fill the filter. These measurements are based on level scoops—adjust to your preferred taste. (Fig. 16) We suggest using a medium grind size if grinding whole beans.  NOTE: Exceeding the recommended medium grind size for whole beans may cause the brew basket to overflow.
  4. Slide the brew basket back into the brewer and click in place.

CAUTION: HOT WATER Do not remove the brew basket or vessel while brewing.

CAUTION: STEAM Do not touch steam vents or the top of the brewer while brewing.

CAUTION: The brew basket is hot after brewing. Always allow the brewer to cool down before cleaning.

DRIP STOP

NOTE: If the Drip Stop is closed before you begin a brew, the brewer will notify you with 5 beeps and the Drip Stop light will be illuminated. Set the Drip Stop to the open position and select your brew concentration level.

CAN’T WAIT FOR THAT FIRST CUP TO BE READY?

When brewing a carafe, close the Drip Stop to pause the brew cycle and pour a cup. Remember to reopen the Drip Stop to complete the brew. (Fig. 17)

NOTE: If you forget to open the Drip Stop, the Ninja Coffee Bar will pause the brew, and after 20 seconds it will give you a friendly audible reminder. After 6 minutes the brew will be canceled.

CAN’T WAIT FOR THE LAST FEW DROPS?

When the brew cycle is complete, set the Drip Stop to the closed position to stop dripping from the brew basket.

NOTE: While the Drip Stop is closed the Drip Stop indicator will light up in the bottom right hand corner of the control panel.

NOTE: Remember to open the Drip Stop when you’re ready to brew again. If you forget, your Ninja Coffee Bar will give you a friendly audible reminder.

INTELLIGENT WARMING PLATE

The Intelligent Warming Plate will automatically turn on after a full or half carafe size of Classic or Rich brew. The Intelligent Warming Plate will adjust the heat it produces in order to avoid burning the coffee over time.

CAUTION: The HOT SURFACE light will illuminate when the warming plate is hot. Do not touch the surface when this light is illuminated.

STAY WARM BUTTON

Press the Stay Warm Button after the brew to turn the Intelligent Warming Plate off. You can turn the Intelligent Warming Plate back on within 2 hours of the brew by pressing the stay warm button again if desired. (Fig.18)

BREWING COFFEE

NOTE: Each brew has a pre-infusion cycle with varying times. The brew will begin, stop, and be quiet for a short period of time before it begins again. This process is used to evenly saturate your coffee grounds.

NOTE: For a hotter coffee, rinse the coffee cup, mug or glass carafe with hot water prior to brewing.

CAUTION: Ensure the coffee cup, mug or glass carafe is completely empty before starting a brewing cycle. Starting a brewing cycle with coffee in the vessel will cause an overflow.

CUSTOM BREWS: CLASSIC, RICH OR OVER ICE BREW
