Tips for Better Coffee, Troubleshooting

21.TIPS FOR BETTER COFFEE

Height adjustable coffee-spout

Adjust the height of the coffee-spout to the size of your cups.

Grinding

Please refer to chapters 6 and 7.

Hotter Coffee / Pre-warm cups

You should warm cups in advance with hot water or steam. The smaller the quantity of coffee, the more important it is to warm your cups (see chapter 9a).

Hotter Cream and Milk

Adding milk or cream from the refrigerator considerably lowers the temperature of the coffee. Preheat milk and cream with the steam function then brew your coffee (see chapter 11).

22.TROUBLESHOOTING

A. NO COFFEE COMES OUT OF THE COFFEE SPOUT Concern: Beans in bean container are not properly feeding into the grinder because they are stuck together.

Solution: Stir beans before grinding and while grinding turn the grinding selector to the coarsest setting. See chapter 7.

Concern: You used ground coffee in the ground coffee funnel. The ground coffee was too fine.

Solution: Use ground coffee which is ground somewhat coarser.

Concern: No water is transported through the system.

Solution: Remove water container and make sure that the con-necting valve is free of any particles (like a coffee bean etc).

Concern: The ground coffee funnel or the internal brewing chamber is clogged.

Solution: Place a cup underneath the coffee spout. Turn the DIAL to highlight the RINSE symbol. Push the DIAL to rinse the coffee spouts. Repeat the process if necessary until the blocked coffee is pushed into the used coffee container.

B. INSUFFICIENT FROTHED MILK PRODUCTION Concern: Milk is initially not cold enough or your milk is not suited for thick frothing.

Solution: Make sure milk is cold. Use a different type of milk. Skim milk will produce the thickest and longest lasting froth. Whole milk will produce less thick froth.

Concern: The components of the frother are not assembled properly, or the components are clogged with hardened milk, or one or more of the components is missing, or the steam nozzle is clogged.

Solution: (See chapter 13)

a. Remove frother. Check that steam comes out of the

steam	nozzle. If not, use a needle and clear blockage from
inside	steam nozzle.

b. Clean all other frother parts and assemble properly.

c. If any parts are missing either call Customer Service at: 1-800-220-5701 or use the enclosed mail order form to order the missing part.

C. GRINDER MAKES AN EXTREMELY LOUD NOISE; NO BEANS ARE GROUND

Concern: A stone is blocking the burr grinder.

Solution: Call customer service at: 1-800-220-5701.
