The operating elements on the screen pages are explained in chapter ‘Design of the
Screen-Based Control’. You should get familiar with this features first.
Selecting Your Drink
1. On the home page touch the icon of the desired drink type and thereafter the
icon of the drink.
For making plain, black espresso or coffee, select “Coffee Beverages” and “Espres-
so”, “Coffee Crema”, or “Americano” (Long Black). On this page, you will find the
function for using espresso pods as well. “Espresso Macchiato” is the only drink on
this page that is prepared with milk. All other drinks that require milk will be found
on the page “Milk-Based Beverages”.
NOTE
We recommend to use the command “Coffee Beverages / Espresso Pod”, whene-
ver you wish to use espresso pods, because this function is perfectly adapted to
this utilization. If you wish to add milk, use the command “Milk-Based Beverages
/ Hot Milk” for heating and/or texturing milk.
2. In most cases, a page is shown for selecting the number of cups (“1 cup” or “2
cup”). Touch one fo the displayed icons for showing the drink page, where the
control areas (framed areas) of the machine functions (single steps for making
your drink) are given: the bean icon for using the grinder, the cup icon for the
extraction, and if required, the jug icon for texturing (frothing) milk (see: ‘Design
of the Screen-Based Control’).
NOTE
When using espresso pods, you can use only 1 espresso pod for 1 cup of espres-
so. Therefore, the appliance skips over the page for selecting the number of cups.
Additionally, you will find only the cup icon on the page “Espresso Pod”, because
the grinder is not used. If you wish to add milk to your espresso, please use the
command “Milk-Based Beverages / Hot Milk” (see: ‘Frothing Milk’).
3. You can change the essential values for making your drink. For this, touch the
gear icon in the control area of the assigned machine function (see: ‘Entering
Your Own Settings’).
4. Prepare the extraction according to the following sections.
Preparing the Filter Holder
The quality of your espresso depends on the correct selection of the espresso filter. If
required, touch the info icon
for displaying a picture of the best suited espresso
filter for the selected drink. You get back to the selected drink page via the arrow
in the navigation bar.
IMPORTANT -
There may be only one separate espresso filter in the filter holder.
On the page “Guide and Settings / Guide and Info / Tips / Removing Filter” an
instruction for removing the espresso filter from the filter holder is given.
NOTE
You can tell the single wall espresso filters from the double wall espresso filters by
holding them up to the light. The light will shine through the pores of the sieve in
the bottom of the single wall espresso filter only.
You find a picture of the Pod filter via the command “Guide and Setting / Guide
and Info / Grinding Guide / Filter”. Via the “Next” buttons, switch to the page
“E.S.E Pod Filter” and touch the “Info” button.
1. Select the suited espresso filter. If required, remove the currently installed espres-
so filter. Then press the selected espresso filter into the filter holder until it clicks
stably into place.
You can grind the coffee beans directly into the espresso filter (see: ‘Using the Grin-
der’). Alternatively, you may fill the espresso filter manually with pre-ground coffee
powder (see: ‘Filling the Espresso Filter manually’) or use an espresso pod (see:
‘Using Espresso Pods’).
IMPORTANT -
Do not fill any coffee powder into the Pod filter, because this one
is designed for espresso pods only. Additionally, select the drink “Espresso Pod”
for this.
2. We recommend to warm up the filter holder and espresso filter by letting hot
water run into the filter holder via the group head. Simply touch the cup icon for
starting the brewing function. This is useful for purging and pre-heating the group
head, too.
3. After purging, thoroughly wipe dry the filter holder and espresso filter. Other-
wise, during extraction, the water may miss the coffee powder and flow at the
rim of the espresso filter.
Using Espresso Pods
IMPORTANT -
For using espresso pods, you need the Pod filter.
Only use 1
espresso pod for each extraction.
In general, usual coffee pods are too large and
therefore unsuitable. Do not fill coffee powder into the Pod filter.
1. In any case, select the command “Coffee Beverages / Espresso Pod” for using
espresso pods (see: ‘Selecting Your Drink’).
