PROPERTIES OF YOUR ESPRESSO MACHINE

Your new » Design Espresso Barista Pro « is designed for brewing fresh, hot espresso

with only some short steps of preparation. For this purpose, the appliance is equip-

ped with the following properties and features.

• On a glance the display on the control panel provides information on the cur-

rent mode of operation and the available functions (see below: ‘Display and

Operating Elements’).

• Via the integrated grinder you can grind whole, fresh coffee beans just before

extraction. The correct dose is given off automatically (see below: ‘Adjustable,

Automatically Controlled Grinder’). The amount can be programmed according

to your likings (see: ‘Entering Your Own Settings’).

• Almost immediately after switching on the espresso machine you can start the

grinder. Within approx. 1 minute, the water system is heated to operating tem-

perature and you can start the extraction.

• The automatically controlled espresso funktions for 1 cup (SINGLE) or 2 cups

(DOUBLE) perform a pre-injection cycle, before starting the extraction process:

When pressing an espresso button, the water system gives off a little amount

of water first for moistening the coffee powder and letting it swell. After a short

break, the extraction starts, building up the required high pressure (max. 15 bar).

This improves the way of extracting flavours and oils from the coffee powder.

• You can adjust the espresso functions according to your likings (see: ‘Entering

Your Own Settings’). Via the steam wand the appliance can give off hot water

and steam. Use this functions for diluting drinks and/or texturing (frothing up) milk

for lattté or cappuccino. You control these functions conveniently via the control

dial in the centre of the control panel (see below: ‘Steam Wand for Hot Water

and Steam’). After approx. 15 litres of water ran through the water system the

appliance issues a descaling warning and starts the descaling function automa-

tically. This function ensures that the descaling process successfully removes the

scale deposits within the water system (see: ‘Descaling the Water System’). For

saving energy, the automatic shut-off switches off the espresso machine, when

the espresso machine is idle for more than approx. 20 minutes (display gets

dark). If you wish to re-assume operation, simply press the ON/OFF button.

IMPORTANT - Even though the appliance features an automatic shut-off, you

should not leave the appliance switched on uselessly. Switch off the appliance via

the ON/OFF button and unplug the appliance for saving energy and ensuring a

long lifetime of the heating system.

NOTE

The various functions, (espresso, steam, and hot water) cannot be operated simultaneously.
