How to Make Coffee at iFixit Onion Bottom

はじめに

This guide shows how to make coffee with the Avantco CMAPADJ Automatic Airpot Coffee Maker at the iFixit Onion Bottom office.

Note that our coffee maker is plumbed, so you don't need to add water.

If you take the last cup of coffee before noon, consider making a new pot (if you think there'll be demand). At minimum, disassemble the pot, rinse it, and set it up to dry!

手順1 Find the airpot

The stainless steel coffee pot with a pump is called an "airpot."
Locate the airpot.
It's usually on the counter between the water taps. If not, check the top of the drying rack in the kitchen.

手順3 Rinse the airpot

Pinch the buttons on either side of the spout to release the lid.

Pour out any leftover coffee, rinse the inside of the airpot with hot water, and let it drain over the sink for a few seconds.

Remove one large 12-cup filter from the drawer under the coffee maker and place it in the brew basket.
Use the 1/4-cup measuring cup to add the correct amount of coffee to the brew basket. This measuring cup is also in the draw under the coffee maker.
Coffee should be on the counter by the coffee maker or under the microwave beside the coffee maker.
For a full 2.5 L pot, about 1 cup (4 scoops) works well. Adjust to taste or use less for the smaller size.
But this is coffee. Follow your heart <3

手順6 Start the coffee maker

Slide the brew basket into place above the airpot.
Place the airpot (with the stem removed and the lid open) under the brew basket.
Set the brew size switch to 2.5 L. (Unless you want to make less coffee, then set it to 2.2 L.)
Set the power switch to ON. It should light up.
Press the PUSH TO BREW button. The "Filling" light should illuminate and you should hear water filling the tank.

手順7 Finish brewing

When brewing finishes, turn the coffee maker off.
Shake the brew basket to knock condensation off of the brew head. Let all coffee finish dripping out of the brew basket.
In one quick motion, slide the brew basket out of the coffee maker and hold it at a downward angle to prevent coffee from dripping on the floor.
Dispose of the grounds in the compost bin.
Rinse the brew basket and return it to the coffee maker.

手順8 Assemble the airpot

Insert the stem into the airpot, making sure the spout aligns with the spout hole in the airpot.
Close the lid and press it firmly to lock it.
Raise the lever until it locks into place.
