Brief description To ensure that the flavour can develop fully and be maintained for longer the machine has an additional function to automatically rinse and pre-warm the system when the machine is cold. The same function is used to flush coffee remains out of the system and the spouts after use.
Operating the coffee machine The following notes should help you get to know your coffee machine before starting to use it. Sensor controls This machine has sensor controls which react to touch. To operate the machine you only need to touch the relevant sensor.
Operating the coffee machine The welcome screen will be displayed each time the machine is switched on until the first 5 drinks (including steam) have been prepared: Míele Willkommen When you use the machine for the very first time you will be prompted to select a language.
Adding water, coffee beans or ground coffee Please clean the machine thoroughly before filling it (see "Cleaning and care"). Filling and emptying the water container The quality of the water plays an important part in the overall quality of the coffee. If the machine is plumbed into the mains drinking water supply, the water container will fill automatically.
Adding water, coffee beans or ground coffee ^ If filling the water container manually, take off the lid and fill the water container with cold, clean tap water up to the "Max." mark. A valve at the front of the water container will ensure that water cannot escape.
Adding water, coffee beans or ground coffee ^ Pull the lid forwards again, push the coffee bean container back into place and close the machine door. Adding ground coffee If you want to use ready ground coffee, you can add ground coffee to the specially designed coffee chute.
Making coffee Important: the water piping must be rinsed through every day and the machine cleaned thoroughly before the first drink of coffee is prepared. Rinsing will take place automatically if the Automatic rinsing programme option has been set to "On" and the machine is cold. Hot water will run out of both spouts into the drip tray once the machine has heated up.
Making coffee Pre-warming cups The cups should always be pre-warmed to allow the flavour to develop and be retained. The aroma of espresso does not react well to cold, The smaller the volume of coffee/espresso, the more important it is to pre-warm the cup. Use a plate warming drawer if you have one.
Making coffee Preparing espresso and coffee from freshly ground beans ^ Place a cup under the coffee spouts. The coffee is always dispensed simultaneously from both spouts. ^ Touch the sensor beside espresso or coffee. The machine will now grind the coffee beans, pre-brew the ground coffee (if the programme option "Pre-brewing"...
Making coffee To prepare two cups at the same time ^ Place a cup under each of the coffee spouts. ^ Touch the sensor beside espresso or coffee and then touch the sensor beside "2 portions". The machine will now prepare a second portion of espresso or coffee a few seconds after the first one.
Page 23
Making coffee If you have not added any ground coffee, you must select "No". Otherwise the machine will assume that there is ground coffee in the chute and so only water will be dispensed the next time coffee is made! ^ Place a cup under the coffee spouts.
Making coffee Cappuccino and milk froth Using for the first time Before the coffee machine leaves the factory, the pipework is completely pumped out. For this reason, water must be pumped into the pipework before using the machine to make a cappuccino or to froth milk for the first time: ^ Place an empty cup under the Cappuccinatore spout.
Making coffee Cappuccino To prepare a cappuccino you will need a large china or porcelain cup and a jug of milk. Froth is best made from cold, skimmed or semi-skimmed milk. Because the milk needs to be frothed, only one portion of Cappuccino can be prepared at one time.
Making coffee Frothing milk To froth milk separately, use a cold, stainless steel jug that narrows towards the top. Froth is best made from cold, semi-skimmed milk. ^ Fill the glass jug supplied with cold milk and place it under the Cappuccinatore suction tube.
Setting the coffee grinder A good espresso or coffee with a thick, even crema (froth) depends not only on the quality, pressure and temperature of the water and the quality of the coffee beans, but also on the quantity of beans and how finely they are ground. The crema should have an even colour with dark stripes running through it.
Page 28
Setting the coffee grinder To alter the grinder setting ^ push the slide control to the left (for finer grinding) or to the right (for coarser grinding). You should be able to feel the notches when moving the slide control. If the slide refuses to move, ^ close the machine and dispense a cup of espresso coffee.
