5.2 Using coffee beans

BWarning:

Always keep the water reservoir lid closed when you fill the coffee bean container with coffee beans. Otherwise coffee beans can fall into the water reservoir and block up the water inlet.

1Remove the coffee bean container lid.  (Fig. 12)

2Fill the duo coffee bean container with coffee beans.You can fill the duo coffee bean container with two different types of coffee beans. Make sure there are enough coffee beans in the container for the amount of coffee you want to brew (Fig. 13).

D Note:

Always make sure the coffee bean container is at least half full.

BWarning:

To prevent the grinder from jamming, do not use unroasted or caramelised beans. We advise to use coffee beans instead of espresso beans as this may cause damage.

3To open the filter basket holder, pull at its tab on the right side of the coffeemaker (Fig. 14).

4Take a paper filter (type 1x4 or no. 4) and fold the sealed edges to prevent tearing and folding. Place the paper filter in the filter basket.  (Fig. 15)

ETip:

The coarseness knob allows you to choose between nine different settings. We preselected 3 optimal settings but you can also choose any setting in between the icons. We advise you to experiment with the different grind settings to find out which setting you prefer.

8Turn the container selector to choose between the two types of coffee beans (Fig. 17).

BWarning:

Whenever you switch between coffee bean containers or coffee beans, there will always be traces of coffee left of the previously ground type of coffee beans. Clean the coffee bean chute after you switch to a new type of coffee bean to prevent this.

D Note:

Depending on your taste, you can either select one of the two types of coffee beans or a mix of both types.

Make sure that the number of cups you select with the 2-10 cups button is consistent with the amount of water in the water reservoir. Please keep in mind that the coffeemaker uses all the water in the water reservoir. If you select a number of cups that is smaller than the amount of water, the coffee becomes weaker than you intended.
