the coffee by rinsing them with a little hot water or placing
them to warm on the cup shelf on top of the appliance for
at least 15-20 minutes (fig. 13).
6. Make sure the OK light (fig. 8) is on (if off, wait until it
comes on), then press the coffee button (fig. 9). Once the
required amount of coffee has been delivered, interrupt
delivery by pressing the same button.
7. To remove the filter holder, turn the handle from right to
left.
Danger of burns!
To avoid splashes, never remove the filter holder while
the appliance is delivering coffee.
8. To dispose of the used coffee, block the filter in place
using the lever incorporated in the handle, then empty
the grounds by turning the filter holder upside down and
tapping it firmly (fig. 14).
9. To turn the appliance off, press the ON/OFF button.
HOW TO PREPARE ESPRESSO COFFEE USING PODS
1. Preheat the appliance as described in the section “Tips for
a hotter coffee”, making sure the filter holder is attached.
This obtains a hotter coffee.
Please note:
use pods conforming to the ESE standard, indicated on the
pack by the following symbol.
The ESE standard is a system accepted by leading pod producers and enables espresso
coffee to be prepared simply and cleanly.
2. Insert the small filter in the filter holder.
3. Insert the pod, centring it as far as possible on the filter
(fig. 15). Always follow the instructions on the pod pack to
position the pod on the filter correctly.
4. Attach the filter holder to the appliance. Always rotate as
far as it will go (fig. 6).
5. Proceed as in points 5, 6 and 7 in the previous section.
HOW TO MAKE CAPPUCCINO
1. Prepare the espresso coffees as described in the previous
paragraphs, using sufficiently large cups.
2. Press the
button (fig. 16) and wait for the light on the
button to come on (fig. 17).
3. In the meantime, fill a recipient with about 100 grams of
milk for each cappuccino to be prepared. The milk must be
at refrigerator temperature (not hot!). In choosing the size
of the recipient, bear in mind that the milk doubles or tri-
ples in volume (fig. 18).
4. Place the recipient containing the milk under the cappucci-
no maker.
5. Wait until the OK light comes on. This indicates that
the boiler has reached the ideal temperature for steam
production.
6. Deliver steam by turning the steam dial to the
position for a few seconds to eliminate all water from the
circuit. Stop steam delivery.
7. Immerse the cappuccino maker in the milk a few millime-
tres (fig. 19). Take care not to immerse the raised line on
the cappuccino maker (shown by the arrow in fig. 19). Turn
the dial anticlockwise (fig. 20). Steam is delivered from the
cappuccino maker, giving the milk a creamy frothy appear-
ance. To obtain a creamier froth, immerse the cappuccino
maker in the milk and rotate the container with slow up-
ward movements.
8. When the required temperature is reached (60°C is ideal),
interrupt steam delivery by turning the steam dial to the O
position and pressing the steam button
again.
9. Pour the frothed milk into the cups containing the espresso
coffee prepared previously. The cappuccino is ready. Sweet-
en to taste and if desired, sprinkle the froth with a little
cocoa powder.
Please note:
•
to prepare more than one cappuccino, first make all the coffees then at the end
prepare the frothed milk for all the cappuccinos.
•
to make coffee again after the milk has been frothed, cool the boiler first or the
coffee will be burnt. To cool, place a container under the filter holder spouts,
press the coffee button and deliver the water until the OK light goes off. Re-
lease the coffee button and then proceed to make coffee.
You are recommended to deliver steam for a
maximum of 60 seconds and never to froth
milk more than three times consecutively.
Important!
For hygiene reasons, the cappuccino maker
should always be cleaned after use.
Proceed as follows:
1. Turn the steam dial to deliver a little steam for a few sec-
onds (points 2, 5 and 6 of the previous section). This causes
the cappuccino maker to deliver any milk left in its circuits.
Press the ON/OFF button to turn the appliance off.
2. With one hand, hold the cappuccino maker tube firmly,
with the other, release the cappuccino maker by turning it
clockwise, then pull off downwards (fig. 21).
3. Remove the steam connection nozzle from the spout by
pulling it downwards (fig. 22).
4. Wash the cappuccino maker and steam connection nozzle
thoroughly with warm water.
5. Make sure the two holes shown by the arrows in fig. 23 are
not blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin.
6. Put the steam connection nozzle back, pressing forcefully
upwards to insert it onto the steam tube.
