YOUR APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED TO MAKE COFFEE FROM COFFEE BEANS ONLY
When you first make coffee with the appliance or after a long period of absence or a
cleaning or scale removal procedure, a little steam and hot water will come out of the
steam nozzle (priming).
Splashing or scalding may occur if the coffee outlets are set too high in relation to the
size of the cups.
Note:
The amount of water needed to make an espresso is between 30 and 70 ml.
The amount of water needed to make a coffee is between 80 and 220 ml.

To stop coffee owing into the cup, you can either again press one of the or , keys or
turn the knob to the min. position.
The ground coffee is moistened with a little hot water after the grinding stage. A few
moments later, percolation as such starts. Beyond a certain amount of coffee in the
cup, we recommend - in order to obtain a stronger coffee - to divide your preparation
into two separate cycles. Example 2 x 70 ml cycles for a cup of 140 ml.

PREPARING STEAM
Steam froths up the milk to make a cappuccino or a caffe latte, for example, and also heats
