Troubleshooting
Coffee tastes weak or watery
Ensure you are using the correct grind size (coarse) and sufficient coffee grounds. Check that the coffee steeped for the recommended time (around 4 minutes).
Plunger is difficult to press down
This usually indicates the coffee grounds are too fine, or too many grounds were used. Disassemble the plunger and clean the filter thoroughly. Try using a coarser grind next time.
Sediment in the coffee cup
Ensure the stainless-steel filter is clean and properly assembled. Use a coarser grind of coffee. Avoid plunging too quickly.
Ceramic carafe has a small chip
While durable, ceramic can chip. Inspect the chip for sharpness. If it is minor and does not compromise structural integrity, it may still be usable with care. For significant chips, replacement might be advised.

Compatibility:

Care:
While the product states it is dishwasher safe, handwashing is recommended to maintain the pristine condition of the ceramic and the stainless-steel filter. Use warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge to clean. Ensure all parts are thoroughly dried before reassembling or storing. The filter components can be dismantled for a more thorough clean.
