5 Preparing coffee (using coffee beans)

1.The appliance is preset to make coffee with a standard strength. ‘You can also choose coffee with

different strengths. To choose the required strength, press the button (fig.5): and the selected coffee strength will be displayed.

2.Place 1 cup under the spouts to make 1 coffee (fig. 6) or 2 cups for 2 coffees (fig. 7). For a creamier coffee, lower the spouts to bring them as close to the cups as possible (fig. 8).

3.Press the button to make a short coffee, the button for a standard coffee and the button for a long coffee (fig. 9).

To make 2 coffees, press the button twice (within 2 seconds).

To change the quantity of coffee delivered automatically into the cup, follow the instructions in chapter 6.

(The appliance now grinds the beans and starts running off the coffee into the cup. Once the desired quantity has been reached, the appliance automatically stops delivering the coffee and ejects the grounds into the special container).

4.After a few seconds, the ready message is displayed again and you can make another coffee.

5.To turn the appliance off, turn the main knob to the OFF position.

Before switching off, the appliance performs an automatic rinse cycle (a little hot water runs out from the spouts and is collected in the drip tray beneath). Take care to avoid scalds.

Once switched off, the lights will not shut off immediately and the cooling span motor operates to avoid condensation in the housing. After about 30 minutes, the appliance switches completely off.

NOTE 1: If the coffee is delivered a drop at a time or not at all, turn the grinding coarseness regulator (fig. 10) one click clockwise (see chapter 7).

Turn one click at a time until the coffee is delivered satisfactorily.

NOTE 2: If the coffee is delivered too fast and is not creamy enough, turn the grinding coarseness regulator (fig. 10) one click anticlockwise (see chapter 7).

Avoid turning the grinding coarseness regulator excessively otherwise when you select 2 cups, the coffee may run out in drips.

NOTE 3: Tips to make hotter coffee:

When you turn the appliance on, if you want to make a short coffee (less than 60 cc), use the hot rinse-through water to preheat the cups.

If 2/3 minutes have passed, since you last made coffee, before making coffee again you must preheat

the infuser by pressing the button (fig. 11).

Run off the water into the underlying drip tray or alternatively use this water to fill (and then empty) the cup to be used for the coffee, so as to preheat it.

Unless preheated, do not use cups that are too thick, as they will absorb too much heat.

Use cups that have been preheated by rinsing them with hot water or by leaving them for at least 20 minutes on the cup warmer tray on top of the appliance with the appliance on.

NOTE 4: while the appliance is making the coffee, delivery can be stopped at any time by pressing the

, or button as previously selected.

NOTE 5: as soon as delivery is complete, to increase the quantity of coffee, simply press and hold the

, or button as previously selected, until the desired quantity is reached (this operation must be performed within 3 seconds from when coffee delivery from the spouts ceases).
