Capresso Avantgarde Series warranty Daily Preparation, Brewing Coffee And Espresso

•The bigger the dots, the coarser the grinding. IMPORTANT: The grinding grade can only be adjusted while the grinder is actually grinding.

ATTENTION: Oily beans tend to stick together. Stir beans just before grinding to ensure a proper flow of beans into the burrs. Please note: If coffee does not flow in a constant stream, turn the grinder to a coarser setting.

8. DAILY PREPARATION

We recommend filling the water container every morning with fresh, cold water. This will enhance the taste of your coffee.

•Make sure the Main Power Switch is on (Fig. 1b). In this case the On/Off button is illuminated.

•Push the On/Off button. The display shows HEATING UP. After approx. 2 minutes the display shows PRESS RINSE.

•Push the Rinse Button (Fig. 2,E). Hot water will warm up all internal parts and pump through the coffee spouts MACHINE RINSING. The water will be caught in the drawer underneath. The rinse cycle stops by itself and the display reads: SELECT

PRODUCT. You are now ready to make coffee.

Please note: Under normal use the machine will automatically complete a rinse cycle when it is turned off (or when the machine turns off automatically). If you have not brewed any coffee at all the machine will not run a rinse cycle when turning off.

9. BREWING COFFEE AND ESPRESSO

The machine has four pre-set coffee buttons, 1 ESPRESSO, 2 ESPRESSI, 1 COFFEE, 2 COFFEES (Fig. 2).

All buttons are pre-set for coffee strength, coffee volume and temperature.

•Place one or two cups underneath the Dual Coffee Spouts and push the desired button. The machine will grind, tamp and then brew the coffee. It uses a 2-step brewing process (pre-brew phase), pauses for a few seconds, and then starts the brewing process. The display will show the name of the

button you pushed, e.g. 1 ESPRESSO and the selected coffee strength, e.g. STRONG.

Please note: when pushing any of the two-cup buttons, the cof- fee strength is not displayed.

Important: After the brewing stops the machine will discard the used coffee grounds. Please do not try to pull out the drawer (Fig.1,18) during this operation. It can seriously damage the machine.There is no need to pull out the drawer until the display shows the message EMPTY TRAY or EMPTY GROUNDS. Please note: You can always stop the brewing process by pressing any of the coffee buttons.

9a. OVERRIDING CUP SIZE

During brewing you can override the cup size for any of the four coffee buttons as follows.

•When the coffee starts brewing, open the Cover for the Rotary Dial (Fig. 1.19 ) and turn the Rotary Dial (Fig. 3A,P). The display will show the cup size in oz. You can change the coffee volume from 1 to 8 oz.

•When you push one of the double cup buttons, the display shows the coffee volume per cup, e.g. if it shows 6 oz., the

machine will brew a total of 12 oz. of coffee.

Please note: Overriding the cup size will not change the pre-set cup size. The next time you push one of the four buttons, it will automatically brew the pre-set volume. See chapter 16 how to change the pre-set values permanently.
