Using the Twist Shut-off Lever

- Rotate the orange lever handle 60° to the left or right to close the drip-through valve. ❌
- Turn the orange handle to the vertical position to open the drip-through valve. ✔️
Brewing Pour-over Coffee
- Place the Smart Brew™ Steeping Filter onto a server or mug into which the preheat water will be drained (ensure to use a vessel larger than 350 ml). Ensure that the orange lever is properly inserted and turned upright to open the drip-through valve. Place a basket-style filter into the Smart Brew™ Steeping Filter. Rinse the paper filter with hot water. Allow preheat water to drain completely and dispose of it.
- Place the Smart Brew™ Steeping Filter on a level surface. Ensure that the orange lever is properly inserted and turned left or right (not upright) far enough to close the drip-through valve. Add 20 grams of coffee grounds. Pour 40 ml of hot water over the coffee grounds.
- Begin timer. Allow coffee to bloom for 20 seconds. Add an additional 300 ml of water. After 1 minute 15 seconds, gently stir the coffee grounds.
