DeLonghi ECAM23450 SL manual Making Drinks with Milk, Making coffee using pre-ground coffee

Making coffee using pre-ground coffee

Important!

•Never add pre-ground coffee when the machine is off or it could spread through the inside of the machine and dirty it. This could damage the appliance.

•Never use more than 1

level measure or it could dirty the inside of the coffee maker or block the funnel.

Please note!

If you use pre-ground coffee, you can only make one cup of coffee at a time.

1.Press the button (fig. 6) until “Pre- ground” is displayed.

2.Make sure the funnel is not blocked, then add one level measure of pre-ground coffee (fig. 13).

3.Place a cup under the coffee spouts.

4.Press the 1 cup coffee button (fig. 8).

5.Preparation begins. The amount of coffee selected is displayed together with a progress bar which gradually fills as preparation progresses.

MAKING DRINKS WITH MILK

Please note!

To avoid milk with poor froth or large bubbles, always clean the milk lid and hot water nozzle as described in the section “Cleaning the milk container” on pages 15 and 17.

Filling and attaching the milk container

1.Remove the lid (fig. 14);

2.Fill the milk container with a sufficient quantity of milk, not exceeding the MAX level marked on the container (fig. 15). Each mark on the side of the container corresponds to 3.4 oz / 100 ml of milk.

Please note!

•For a denser more even froth, we recommend using skim or 2% milk at refrigerator temperature (about 41°F/5°C).

•To avoid producing milk with poor froth or large bubbles, always clean the milk

lid and hot water nozzle as described in the sections “Cleaning the milk frother with the CLEAN button” on page 15 and “Cleaning the milk container” on page 17.

3.Make sure the milk intake tube is correctly inserted in the bottom of the milk container lid (fig. 16).

4.Place the lid back on the milk container.

5.Remove the hot water spout from the nozzle (fig. 17).

6.Attach the milk container to the nozzle and push as far as it will go (fig. 18). The machine emits a beep.

7.Place a sufficiently large cup under the coffee and frothed milk spouts. Adjust the length of the milk spout. To move it nearer the cup, simply pull it downwards (fig. 19).

8.Follow the instructions below for each function.

Making cappuccino or macchiato

1.After attaching the milk container, turn the froth adjustment knob on the milk container

lid between position 2 and 3 (fig. 20).

2.Press the CAPPUCCINO button on the control panel. “CAPPUCCINO” is displayed, together with a progress bar which fills gradually as preparation proceeds. If the froth is not satisfactory, turn the froth adjustment knob

towards 2 (= less froth) or towards 3

(= more froth) (fig. 20).

3.After delivering the frothed milk, the machine automatically makes the coffee.

Please note!

•If during delivery you want to stop making milk or coffee, press the CAPPUCCINO button twice.

•At the end of delivery, to increase the quantity of coffee in the cup, just press (within 3 seconds) the CAPPUCCINO button.

•Do not leave the milk container out of the refrigerator for longer than strictly necessary. The warmer the milk (41°F/5°C ideal), the poorer the froth will be.
