Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips! To fully benefit from the support that Philips offers, register your product at www.philips.com/welcome. With SENSEO®, you can enjoy a perfect cup of coffee with a delicious crema layer whenever you feel like it. Each cup is freshly brewed, so you’re always sure of a pure and round taste. SENSEO® combines a unique brewing method from Philips with convenient coffee pods from Douwe Egberts, available in different blends of fine roast and ground coffee.Together they make sure you only get the very best in flavour and aroma from the coffee.
The Douwe Egberts coffee in convenient SENSEO® coffee pods and Philips’ unique new SENSEO® brewing system are perfectly matched to ensure that the best taste and aroma are extracted from the coffee.
To optimise the taste of the coffee, keep the following aspects in mind:
Fresh water
Use fresh water every day. If you have not used the coffee machine for three days, you have to flush it with fresh water before you use it again (see section ‘Flushing’ in chapter ‘Cleaning’).
Fresh coffee pods
Use the SENSEO® coffee pods that have been specially developed by Douwe Egberts for your SENSEO® coffee machine for a full, round taste. Douwe Egberts SENSEO® coffee pods stay fresh longer when you close the package with the keep- fresh seal after use or when you store them in a storage container.
A clean machine
Clean and descale the Philips SENSEO® coffee machine regularly (see chapters ‘Cleaning’ and ‘Descaling’). Remove used coffee pods after brewing. If a used pod has been left in the coffee machine and you have not used the machine for some time, flush the machine before you use it again (see section ‘Flushing’ in chapter ‘Cleaning’).
