5.3 Selecting Brew Mode
Place a cup under the machine's nozzle. The H4C Classic offers two brewing modes:
- Hot Brew (Self-Heating): For brewing with cold or room temperature water. Double-click the Hot Brew button (indicated by three wavy lines). The machine will heat the water to 95℃ (adjustable between 85-95℃) and then automatically brew. This process takes approximately 3-5 minutes.
- Direct Brew: For brewing with preheated hot water. Double-click the Direct Brew button (indicated by a snowflake icon). The machine will brew instantly without heating the water.
