Features of the Ninja Coffee Bar®
• Thermal Flavor Extraction®Technology - Blends Precision Water Delivery with automated controls for Calibrated
Temperature, Pre-infusion, Coffee Saturation, and Flavor Richness. Ninja’s Thermal Flavor Extraction technology can
truly unlock the full flavor potential of your coffee.
•Custom Brews – Ability to brew directly into your favorite cup or travel mug.
• Brew Types – control the strength and style of your coffee:
a. Classic Brew for smooth, balanced flavor from your favorite coffee.
b. Rich Brew for a richer, never-bitter coffee flavor that stands up to milk, cream, or flavoring.
c. Over Ice Brew for a smooth, rich, freshly brewed iced coffee that’s not watered down.
d. Specialty Brew to create a super-rich concentrate to use as a key ingredient in all kinds of hot milk-based,
iced, and frozen coffeehouse-style drinks.
e. Cafe Forte for deep, full-bodied, and complex flavor that is so rich and drinkable, it tastes great
black—no milk or sweeteners needed.
• Multi-Serve Cup Platform – Pull it down, place your favorite cup on it and brew directly into it.
• Removable Water Reservoir with Easy Access Flip-Top Lid – For quick and easy filling.
•Auto-iQ™– The Ninja Coffee Bar knows how much water to use for each size and brew type.
•Clean Function – It illuminates when your Ninja Coffee Bar senses that there is hard water calcium buildup in your
brewer which can affect the flavor of your coffee. When it illuminates, follow the cleaning instructions in the Care &
Maintenance section or printed on the back of your brewer.
• Audible Ready Signal – Alerts you that your coffee is ready.
• Premium Permanent Filter - A reusable filter that preserves the natural coffee oils and small coffee particles to
provide a robust flavor, similar to what you would experience when using a French press.
• Pre-Heat - After plugging in or turning your brewer on from Power Save mode, allow 3 minutes for your brewer to pre-
heat. When plugged in, your Ninja Coffee Bar will stay ready in pre-warmed mode unless you put the brewer into power
save mode.
• Integrated Frother- Housed conveniently on the side of our newest Ninja Coffee Bar brewer, the Integrated Frother
transforms milk into a velvety-smooth foam topping for your favorite indulgent coffee drinks with just the touch of a button.
• Drip Stop - Stops the flow of coffee from the brew basket, allowing you to pour a cup mid-brew; switch toggle to the
closed position to prevent dripping once the brew cycle is finished.

the brewer.
2Wash the water reservoir, Premium permanent filter,
frother whisk, and brew basket in warm, soapy water
with a soft cloth.

SAFEGUARDS IN MIND WHEN USING THE
APPLIANCE:
CAUTION: APPLIANCE CREATES HOT LIQUID.
HANDLE WITH CARE.

at least a 12 oz. cup for the cup size, 14 oz.
cup for the XL Cup size, 16 oz. travel mug for
the travel mug size and 20 oz. travel mug for
the XL Multi-Serve size to prevent overflow
and a scalding injury.

the appliance is running without the Drip
Stop in the closed position. Return the
vessel quickly and open the Drip Stop to
continue the brew.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT run the appliance

1Place the brewer on a dry, clean and level surface.
2To easily fill the water reservoir, use the hand grips
to lift the reservoir to the right and up off the brewer.
. (Fig. 1) The water reservoir lid flips open, and the
entire lid is easily removable for quick cleaning. Add
fresh, filtered water at or above the minimum fill line
for your desired beverage size (Fig. 2), then return the
water reservoir to the brewer by angling the reservoir
into the holder and pushing in towards the brewer to
lock into place. (Fig. 3) Do not fill water reservoir with
any other liquids such as brewed coffee, carbonated
beverages, etc. as other liquids may damage your
brewer.
3 Slide brew basket out (Fig. 4) and lift both the Premium
permanent filter and the removable filter holder from
the brew basket. (Fig. 5) To reinsert, set the Premium
permanent filter and removable filter holder back into
the brew basket. (Fig. 6)
Assembly
4Once the filter is in place, slide the brew basket all the
way in until you hear a slight click.
5Place your travel mug on the base of the brewer
underneath the brew basket.
NOTE: Do not use any coffee for the first two brew
cycles in order to clean the brewer.
6Plug the brewer into an electrical outlet.
7Once all parts are securely in place, press the Power
Save button then press the CLEAN button to thoroughly
clean the machine before first use.
8 Discard the water in the travel mug and repeat,
beginning from step 2, with one more Clean Cycle of
water before first use.
CAUTION: Only fill water reservoir up to, but not exceeding the Max Fill line with water; we recommend fresh,
cool, filtered water. Do not fill water reservoir with any other liquids such as brewed coffee, carbonated
beverages, etc. as other liquids may damage your brewer.

HOW MUCH COFFEE DO YOU GET IN YOUR CUP?
CAUTION: Please ensure that you are using at least a 12 oz. cup for the cup size, 14 oz. cup for the XL Cup
size, 16 oz. travel mug for the travel mug size and 20 oz. travel mug for the XL Multi-Serve size to prevent
overflow and a scalding injury.
Each size and brew type produces a different amount of coffee to optimize strength, taste, and size.
NOTE: The coffee grounds will absorb some of the water that is brewed, resulting in slightly less brewed coffee than water used.

Why is there a
difference?
A cold ceramic
mug will steal heat
from the coffee as
it warms itself up.
If the mug is
already warm, it
will not steal as
much heat from
the coffee.
Just like your
cold mug, cold
milk lowers the
temperature of
your coffee.
The Ninja
double wall cup is
designed to retain
initial coffee temp
better than a
ceramic cup.
Unlike a ceramic
mug, a thinner
paper cup
does not steal
substantial heat
from the coffee.
WOULD YOU LIKE A HOTTER COFFEE?
Have you ever wondered why coffee is served in paper cups when you order it to go? The type of cup you brew into can
drastically influence the drinking temperature.

Our Specialty Brew is always 4 oz. and Cafe Forte is always 8 oz., so you don’t need to adjust the dial for our Signature brews.

You will see your pre-heat LED turn on.
2Allow 3 minutes for your brewer to pre-heat.

Power Save Button.
