1. Product Overview
The WACACO Pipamoka Baskets Set is an accessory designed to enhance the functionality of your WACACO Pipamoka portable coffee maker. This set includes two additional filter baskets and a protective carrying case. These baskets allow you to pre-fill with ground coffee, making it convenient to prepare multiple servings or to have extra coffee ready for travel.
Important Note: The WACACO Pipamoka coffee maker itself is not included in this set. This product provides only the additional filter baskets and their protective case.

2. Setup and Preparation
Before first use, it is recommended to wash the filter baskets and the protective case with warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Ensure all components are completely dry before storing or using.
2.1 Preparing the Filter Baskets
- Open a filter basket.
- Fill the basket with your desired amount of ground coffee. Ensure the coffee grounds are suitable for your Pipamoka device (typically medium to fine grind).
- Close the filter basket securely.
2.2 Storing the Baskets
The protective case is designed to hold both filter baskets, even when pre-filled with ground coffee. This keeps your coffee fresh and prevents spills during transport.
- Place the filled or empty filter baskets inside the designated compartments within the protective case.
- Zip the case closed to secure the baskets.

3. Operating the Baskets with Pipamoka
These filter baskets are designed to be used interchangeably with the original basket provided with your WACACO Pipamoka. Follow the instructions provided with your Pipamoka device for brewing coffee.
3.1 General Usage Steps (Refer to Pipamoka Manual for Details)
- Ensure your chosen filter basket is filled with ground coffee and securely closed.
- Insert the filled filter basket into your WACACO Pipamoka device as per its specific instructions.
- Proceed with adding hot water and operating the Pipamoka to brew your coffee.
- After brewing, carefully remove the used filter basket from the Pipamoka.
4. Maintenance and Care
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Pipamoka Baskets Set.
4.1 Cleaning
- Filter Baskets: After each use, empty the used coffee grounds from the basket. Rinse the basket thoroughly under running water. For a more thorough clean, use warm, soapy water and a soft brush to remove any coffee residue. Rinse well to ensure no soap remains.
- Protective Case: Wipe the interior and exterior of the case with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains, a mild soap solution can be used. Ensure the case is completely dry before zipping it closed, especially if storing baskets inside.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on any part of the set, as this may damage the surfaces.
4.2 Storage
Store the filter baskets and protective case in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. The protective case is ideal for keeping the baskets organized and protected when not in use or during travel.
5. Troubleshooting
This accessory set is straightforward in its function. Most issues related to coffee brewing will likely stem from the Pipamoka device itself or the coffee grounds used.
5.1 Common Considerations
- Clogged Basket: If the basket appears clogged, ensure it is thoroughly cleaned after each use. Fine coffee grounds can sometimes accumulate in the mesh. A small brush or strong rinse can help.
- Difficulty Closing Basket: Ensure no coffee grounds are caught in the sealing mechanism of the basket. Clean the edges before attempting to close.
- Damage to Basket: If a basket is physically damaged (e.g., bent mesh, cracked plastic), it may affect brewing performance and should be replaced.
- Case Zipper Issues: If the zipper on the protective case becomes stiff, try applying a small amount of zipper lubricant or wax. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth.
