was brewed 1 hour and 9 minutes ago.
Now that you have set the Delay Brew setting for your coffeemaker,
you must turn this feature on. Press the AUTO ON button and a green
indicator light will illuminate. Your coffeemaker will now begin to brew
automatically at the time set in PROGRAM mode. (Remember to fill your
Water Reservoir and add coffee grinds to your filter basket, and ensure
that your Thermal Carafe is securely placed with the reservoir and is
empty). When the programmed time arrives the red indicator light will
illuminate indicating that the brewing cycle has begun.
Figure 4
WARNING!
WARNING: Your coffeemaker will continue to automatically brew daily
at the set time while the AUTO ON indicator is illuminated. Remember to
turn the AUTO ON function off should you be away. To turn the AUTO
ON function off press the AUTO ON button once and the green indicator
light will go off. If you forget to turn this function off the coffeemaker

Pause & Serve
Warning: To avoid a potential burn injury,
ensure that the Thermal carafe is placed all
the way into the coffeemaker reservoir
(See figure 6).
Your coffee maker features an automatic pause feature when the carafe
is removed during the brewing cycle. This allows you to enjoy a cup of
coffee before the brewing cycle has completed. Simply remove the
carafe to stop the flow of coffee. Please note that the coffee taste will
be stronger when drinking before the brew cycle is complete.
Figure 6
Do not attempt to clean your coffeemaker
or remove coffee grounds immediately after
brewing. Allow unit to completely cool first.
WARNING!
To avoid a possible scalding injury, please adhere to the following
safety precautions:
•
Do not keep the carafe out of the coffee maker for longer than
30 seconds otherwise the brew basket will overflow.
•
•
Ensure that the brew basket remains closed securely.
Ensure that the carafe lid is in the CLOSED position during
brewing and pouring. An improperly placed lid could cause the
lid to fall off during pouring.
•
Do not place any cloth either on top of or below the
coffeemaker as this will restrict airflow and could cause your
coffeemaker to overheat.

Care and Cleaning
Daily Maintenance
Unplug coffeemaker and allow to completely cool before cleaning.
•
•
•
•
Wash the Carafe, Lid, Ground Coffee Filter and Filter Basket in warm,
soapy water. Do not place any of these parts in the dishwasher
Do not use abrasive cleaners, harsh detergents, or steel wool to
clean any part of your coffeemaker.
Never immerse the coffeemaker housing or plug in water or other
liquid. Wipe with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Recipes
To prevent blockage of the water tank, do not use any wash cloths
or attempt to dry out the removable water tank. Simply rinse and
place back into the coffeemaker.
Monthly Maintenance
Water contains minerals and dissolved particles that can build up
over time in your coffeemaker reducing its performance. To increase
the longevity and maintain the quality of your brewed coffee it is
recommended that you decalcify your coffeemaker once a month.
The decalcification process will remove the buildup and deposits within
your coffeemaker.
Never pour any other liquid other than cold water or a water/vinegar
mixture into the water tank.
Complete the following steps to decalcify your coffeemaker:
1
Remove Water Tank from the Coffeemaker Housing. Add white
vinegar up to the 3 cup mark on the tank. Fill the balance of the Tank
with cold water up to the 12 cup mark.
2

Black Pepper Scones
Strawberry Marzipan Tart
I love the flavor of fresh black pepper in scones. But, if you prefer,
1 cup of dried blueberries, sour cherries or raisins can be used
instead of the pepper to make a fruitier, sweeter scone.
One of the advantages of serving a tart is that you do all the work
in advance. This is a simple tart, easy to make, even the kids can get
involved! It’s a creamy, fruity, delicious dessert with a great almond
flavor. I like to serve a tart like this with coffee and a liqueur.
Amaretto di Saronno or Frangelica are both perfect. Of course
there’s nothing to stop you getting out one of your precious old
Sauternes or a Vintage Port.
Makes 18 scones
INGREDIENTS
4 cups plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
Makes one 10-inch tart
INGREDIENTS
1/2 teaspoon salt
13 tablespoons (6 1/2 ounces) unsalted butter,
cut into small pieces and chilled
1 1/2 tablespoons medium grind black pepper
2 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped lemon peel
1 1/2 cups heavy cream, plus 2 tablespoons for brushing
1/3 recipe sugar dough (see separate recipe, page 17)
1/2 pound unsalted butter, slightly softened
1/2 cup sugar
3 eggs
2 tablespoons orange liqueur
Zest of 2 oranges, finely grated
1 teaspoon almond extract
METHOD
2 cups ground almonds
1/4 cup currant jelly, melted
2 baskets strawberries, sliced 1/4-inch thick
1
Into a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder and
salt. Using two knives or a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the
mixture resembles coarse meal. Gently stir in the pepper and lemon
peel. Add the 1 1/2 cups cream all at once and mix until the dough
just comes together.
METHOD
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
2
3
Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead the dough into a
ball. For a flakier consistency, do not knead the dough into a smooth
ball. If smooth, the scone will be more cakelike. Wrap in plastic wrap
and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to overnight.
2
On a floured surface, roll the pastry 3/8-inch thick and line a 10-inch
flan ring with it. Place the ring on a parchment paper lined baking
sheet and chill it until needed.
Cut the dough into three equal pieces. Working with one piece at a
time, keeping the other two pieces covered, roll out to a circle, 6
inches in diameter and ?-inch thick (see note below). Cut the circle
into 6 wedges and arrange the wedges on one or two baking trays
lined with parchment paper. Repeat with the remaining dough.
3
4
5
Cream the butter and sugar lightly in an electric mixer; don’t let the
butter get too soft. Add the eggs and mix lightly.
Stir in the liqueur, zest and almond extract, then mix in the ground
almonds.
Pour into the chilled pastry shell and bake for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15
minutes, or until the pastry and marzipan are a deep golden brown.
4
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly brush the scones with the
remaining 2 tablespoons of cream and bake until golden, about 10-12
minutes.
6
7
Remove the tart from the oven and let cool to room temperature.
Brush the top of the tart with the currant jelly. Cover the top of the
tart with sliced strawberries arranged in concentric circles or in a
flower petal design, making certain the whole top of the tart is
covered.
Note: The scones can be cut out with a 2 1/2-inch cookie cutter if
desired. Roll out the dough, cut, and place on a baking tray. Reroll
the dough and continue cutting out circles. Proceed as in step 4.
5
Serve warm with butter, and jam if you like.
8
Remove the flan ring and transfer the tart to a flat serving platter.
Cut into wedges.

Pecan Pie
Sugar Dough
This is an American classic, but one that requires special attention to
avoid cloying sweetness or a soggy crust. I like to toast the pecans
before combining them with the other ingredients. And a moderate
oven works better than a hot one.
Makes about 1 1/2 pounds or two 9-inch tart shells
INGREDIENTS
2 1/3 cups cake or pastry flour
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, chilled, cut into small pieces
2 egg yolks
Makes one 10-inch tart, to serve 6 - 8
INGREDIENTS
1 or 2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 1/2 cups light corn syrup
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup light brown sugar
4 eggs
METHOD
1
In a food processor fitted with the steel blade, combine the
flour and sugar. Add the butter and process until the texture
resembles fine meal.
2 egg yolks
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 recipe Sugar Dough (see separate recipe page 17)
1 1/2 cups pecan halves
2
In a small bowl, whisk together the yolks and 1 tablespoon of the
cream. Scrape into the machine and process until a ball begins to
form, using the additional tablespoon of cream, if necessary. Remove
the dough from the machine, and on a lightly floured surface, press
down into a circle. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least
1 hour.
METHOD
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
2
In a large skillet over medium heat, toast the pecans, shaking
frequently, for about 7 minutes or until golden and fragrant.
3
Use as needed.

Place the corn syrup, sugars, eggs, and egg yolks in a mixing bowl.
Beat well.
Recipe courtesy Wolfgang Puck
Heat the butter in a small skillet over medium heat until it turns
brown and has as nutty aroma. Stir it into the corn syrup mixture.
Line a 10-inch tart pan with the Sugar Dough. Arrange the pecan
halves in the bottom of the shell. Ladle the filling over the pecans.
Bake the tart for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a skewer inserted
near the center comes out clean. Remove and let cool at
room temperature.

Cut into wedges and serve with rum-flavored whipped cream or a
scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Macaroons
Kaiserschmarren
Spago Pastry Chef Sherry Yard and her team bake hundreds and
hundreds of these for the annual Passover Seder at Spago Beverly
Hills. Feel free to use different shades of food coloring, dividing the
mixture up into batches if you like before adding the color. You can
serve the macaroons as is or, if you like, sandwich them in pairs with
a dab of raspberry jam or another jam as the filling.
This is my version of an Austrian classic, which is normally prepared
as a pancake. But we make it as a soufflé, making it lighter, fluffier
and more refined. The key to success with this spectacular dish is
folding in the meringue perfectly – don’t overmix and don’t
undermix! As soon as the meringue is combined it’s ready to bake in
a hot oven.
Makes about 3 dozen
Serves 4 - 8
INGREDIENTS
INGREDIENTS
1/2 pound confectioner’s sugar, about 1 7/8 cups
1/4 pound almond meal, about 1 cup
1/2 cup egg whites, about 4 large egg whites
Pinch cream of tartar
4 egg yolks
4 1/2 ounces sugar
1/4 cup crème fraiche
1 ounce dark rum
1 1/2 ounces granulated sugar, about 1/4 cup
5 drops red food coloring
4 teaspoons flour
2 tablespoons plumped
golden raisins
2 tablespoons unsalted butter,
melted, for brushing
2 tablespoons sugar, for coating
3 egg whites
METHOD
1
Preheat the oven to 325°F.
2
Meanwhile, sift together the confectioner’s sugar and almond meal
directly into a medium mixing bowl. Set aside.
1 recipe strawberry sauce
1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled, cut in halves
3
4
5
In another bowl, beat the egg whites until foamy. Add the cream
of tartar and continue beating until they form soft peaks when
the beaters are lifted out. Continue beating while pouring in the
granulated sugar in a steady stream; then, add the food coloring
and continue beating until fully blended, about 30 seconds.
Strawberry Sauce
(Makes about 1 1/2 cups):
1/2 pound strawberries, hulled
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 whole star anise
1/2 tablespoon orange zest
Juice of 1/2 orange
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Spoon the mixture into a piping bag fitted with the round tip. Pipe
the mixture into 1-inch rounds on a parchment paper-lined baking
sheet. Put the sheet in the oven and bake for 5 minutes; rotate the
sheet 180 degrees and bake for 7 minutes more, until the macaroons
are firm.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the macaroons cool
before transferring to an airtight container.
