CLEANING THE GLASS JUG

1. After each use, empty the glass jug. Do
not allow brewed tea to stand overnight.
2. Wipe the interior of the glass jug with
a soft damp sponge or rinse with warm
water. Tea deposits will enhance the
flavour of the brewed tea, so if only
using as a Tea Maker™ do not wash
with soapy water.
3. Wipe the exterior of the glass jug with
a soft damp cloth to clean.
WARNING
Never immerse or wash exterior of
glass jug under running water.
NOTE
Do not use chemicals, steel wool, or
abrasive cleaners to clean the inside
or outside of the Glass Jug as these
may scratch the surface.
4. To remove the build-up of tannin,
the astringent chemical constituent
of tea, fill the glass jug with water up
to the water maximum mark (1500mL
WATER MAX) and either:
a) Bring water to boil and allow water to
cool for one minute. Add contents of
tea cleaner packet and allow to stand for
5 minutes. Empty tea maker, refill with
fresh water and boil. Once again, empty
the tea maker, refill with fresh water
and boil. Empty tea maker and rinse
thoroughly.
b) Add the juice of one lemon, as well
as the lemon and boil. Leave to soak
overnight then discard the solution. Fill
the glass jug with clean water, boil, then
discard the water. Repeat if necessary.
or,
c) Add 6 tablespoons of white vinegar
and boil. Leave to soak overnight then
discard the solution. Fill the glass jug
with clean water, boil, then discard the
water. Repeat if necessary.
4. Dry thoroughly with a soft, lint-free cloth
before using.
NOTE
Through regular use over time, scale
build-up can affect the performance
and the life of the Tea Maker . Lime
™
and phosphate are common forms
of scale that can damage your Tea
Maker . Lime scale, a harmless
™
mineral, comes in the appearance of
white-coloured or rusty looking build
up on the inner walls and inner base
of the glass jug. Phosphate scale can't
be seen, however, it can cause the
water to appear cloudy when heated.
To prevent scale from damaging your
Tea Maker , ensure to de-scale the
™
glass jug regularly. Use a commercial
de-scaling agent and follow the
instructions that come with the agent.
