Mr. Coffee Mini Brew 5 Cup - How to Use Demo

Hello , everyone .

Welcome to the channel .

And in this video , I'm gonna show you how to use the Mr coffee five cut mini brew , programmable coffee maker , more specifically how to set the clock and the programmable time .

I have a bit of a cold today , so I might sound a little bit nasal and stuffed up .

So just please excuse that .

It's bad enough .

I have uh the reverb in this room for audio , something which I'm gonna work with .

Should this channel grow ?

Now , I purchased this unit for 20 bucks at Target , brought it home and I found out the instruction manual wasn't really that helpful as far as how to use the machine , how to set the clock , programmable timer .

It wasn't really a good how to guide if you will .

I know you can't read it , but that's one of the reasons why I'm making this video .

The cover of the unit swings over to the side .

You have the uh water spout that swings back and forth .

Let's push that to the side and you have the removable brew basket .

And this takes a , um , a four cup size uh basket style filter .

This is what we're gonna be using in a minute .

Pour the water in making a full five cup pot , put in the filter basket .

And I'm gonna use five tablespoons for the full pot of this regular strength Maxwell House ground coffee , three for and five .

Swing that over the pool basket and we'll close it .

I don't think it will close if the spout is over the water reservoir .

Yeah , it won't .

So you wanna just make sure that's all with the brew basket .

So at the base of the unit , very simple interface , hour a minute button now and later buttons .

So when you plug it in the time will flash 12 o'clock and you head over to the hour and minute a button .

You set the current time in this example , let's just set it for like 3:05 p.m. Notice you got the AM PM indicator .

I'm gonna go to 305 .

Once it stops flashing , the current time is set now to set the program with timer head over to the brew later button .

Press that once again time flashes and you set the time you want it to go off in the morning .

If it stops flashing , you just go over and you press it again , actually had to press it twice .

Ok .

We're gonna set it for 6:05 a.m. once it stops flashing .

Now the time is set at 6:05 a.m. to go off in the morning .

And you just wanna double check that , that brew later button , that orange indicator , that light is illuminated .

Now , if you don't want to deal with the clock of programmable timer , you just wanna put the water in , put the coffee grounds in and start the unit just uh treat that brew now button as an on off button .

So that's how you operate the unit pretty simple .

I just wish the instruction manual was a little bit more , a little bit more details .

The cool thing about this unit , you could flip the lid and watch it brew and that's your water level indicator .

It took about 8 to 9 minutes to complete .

It started at 6:05 a.m. at 6 14 .

So that's not so bad for the full pot .

Put a splash of milk in , get an idea of strength .

I do like the temperature 1 65 .

Usually I get 1 60 even 1 55 .

Ok .

The one that's gonna conclude this video .

I hope it was interesting .

I hope it was helpful for anyone who wanted to figure out the clock and programmable timer .

I thank you for watching and I'll catch you in my next video .
