Maintenance Tips
- Clean lid, brew-thru inlet, faucet, and sight gauge daily to prevent coffee oil buildup and ensure smooth dispensing.
- Disassemble lid components regularly (inlet tube, vent, ball assembly) and sanitize all beverage-contact parts using approved food-safe sanitizer.
- Rinse immediately after emptying to prevent residue hardening inside the stainless steel liner and affecting flavor quality.
- Use the 3-step cleaning method (soap → rinse → sanitize) daily for hygiene and corrosion prevention; never submerge the server.
- Wipe exterior stainless steel with a soft cloth and mild detergent; avoid abrasive pads and pressure washing to protect finish and seals.
- Check faucet O-rings, seals, and sight gauge tubing regularly for leaks or wear and replace if needed to maintain heat retention and dispensing reliability.
- Keep brew-thru valve area clean and free of dried coffee to ensure proper sealing during brewer docking cycles.
- Avoid chlorinated cleaners or bleach products, as they can damage stainless steel and void warranty coverage.
- Store with lid slightly open after cleaning to allow full drying and prevent odor or moisture buildup.
- Inspect server body for dents or seal damage, as vacuum insulation performance depends on structural integrity.
