Using Pre-ground Coffee, Using Hot Water | Capresso 156 instruction

Important: As long as the C1300 grinds, brews or discards coffee, do NOT attempt to pull out the drawer. This can seriously damage your machine. See chapter 13.

8.1 Using Pre-ground Coffee

You can also use pre-ground coffee, bypassing the grinder. This comes in handy if someone requests decaf, sugar coated or flavored coffee.

a. Turn the Coffee Dial until the display shows 1 PREGROUND or 2 PREGROUND. b. Open the lid for the ground coffee funnel (fig. 1,8) and fill the funnel with one or two scoops of ground coffee (fig. 11). Important: Do not fill this funnel

with instant coffee and do not use more than two level scoops of coffee. c. Select the cup size by turning the cup size dial (fig. 12). Place a cup under-

neath the coffee spouts.

d. Press the BUTTON. The machine will tamp, pre-brew, brew, stop, and discard the used coffee grounds. During this process the second line will show BREWING and the selected cup size.

Please note: If you do not fill enough coffee into the funnel or forget to fill ground coffee into the funnel and press the BUTTON, the C1300 will start the brewing process. It will show in the first line FILL POWDER and will discontinue the process.

Please note: After use of sugar coated or flavored coffee through the pre- ground coffee funnel you may experience some flavor transfer when going back to your regular coffee. You can use the "extra rinse cycle" to remove the flavor transfer (see chapter 12a).

8.2 Using Hot Water

With the hot water function you can produce a cup of tea, a quick soup or add hot water to your coffee, making it less strong.

a. Place a cup underneath the Dual Frother.

b. Turn the SW Dial to the water symbol (fig. 2c). The C1300 will immediately disburse a stream of hot water into the cup. The display shows HOT WATER.

c. To stop the hot water flow, turn the SW Dial back to the 0-position (fig. 2a). Caution: Always make sure that the Dual Frother aims inside the cup when using the hot water function. Otherwise hot water might splatter, which can cause severe injuries.

8.3 Frothing and Steaming

The steam function can be used to heat any liquid and to steam and froth milk.

Steaming Position:

The Frother's metal cylinder is in the UP position (fig. 3a). In the steaming posi- tion hot steam is injected into the milk (or any other liquid) without creating a frothy layer on top. Typically a Latte has steamed milk with no froth.

Frothing Position:

The Frother's metal cylinder is in the DOWN position (fig. 3a). In the frothing position hot steam and air is injected into the milk creating warm milk and a firm layer of tiny froth bubbles.
