Curtis GEM-12D User manual

Wilbur Curtis Gemini Coffee Brewing
Systems. They established the bench-
mark by which others are measured.
Now Gemini is available with Curtis’
exclusive ADS — Advanced Digital
System technology.
Gemini with ADS lets you turn up the
power of high-speed brewing with
greater ease, reliability and even more
consistent quality. Engineered with
innovative solid-state digital technol-
ogy, the GEM-12D has more features,
more speed and greater brewing accu-
racy than ever before.
How does digital differ?
Advanced controls and digital compo-
nents eliminate old-style switches,
thermostats, relays, wiring and much
more. This results in a truly simpler
brewing operation. With GEMINI digital
you can use the system with all brew-
ing functions factory pre-set for you,
and later make precise adjustments to
suit your specific coffee serving require-
ments.
Features!
• Dual Brewing Heads - Simultaneously
brew up to 72 cups (36 per head)... as
many as 400 cups per hour!
•
ADS Technology - Controls are centralized
on the front TouchKey Panel for easy pro-
gramming and operation. Digital compo-
nents means fewer, longer lasting parts

inventory (branch and truck level), and
easier service.

optimum coffee quality.
•
Digital Brew Counter - Senses and
tracks each brew cycle. Ideal for account
qualification, preventative maintenance
programs, profitability reports and more.
• Self Diagnostic - Expedites service.
• Brew Cycle Water Bypass - Prevents
over extraction of grounds for better tast-
ing coffee.

Medium and High heat. Software control
maintains coffee temperature gently.
