9b. BREWING COFFEE AND ESPRESSO
The machine has two pre-set coffee buttons,
ESPRESSO
(Fig. 3.6) and
COFFEE
(Fig. 3.5). Both buttons are pre-set for
coffee strength, coffee volume and temperature (chapter 5).
Brewing one cup:
• Place one cup underneath the Dual Coffee Spouts and push
the desired button. The machine will grind, tamp and then
brew the coffee. It uses a 2-step brewing process (pre-brew
phase), pauses for a few seconds, and then starts the brewing
process. The display shows the name of the button you
pushed, e.g.
1 ESPRESSO
and the selected coffee strength,
e.g.
STRONG
. The C9 OT will stop automatically and discard
the used coffee grounds internally. When the display shows
READY
, you can brew the next cup of coffee.
Brewing two cups:
• Place two cups underneath the Dual Coffee Spouts and push
the desired button twice. The display shows e.g.
2 COFFEES
.
The C9 OT will brew twice the programmed amount of coffee
(e.g. 2 x 5 oz.) and then stop automatically and discard the
used coffee grounds internally.
READY
.
Please note:
When brewing two cups the C9 OT will always
grind the maximum amount of coffee (setting STRONG).
Important
: After the brewing stops, the machine will discard the
used coffee grounds. Please do not try to pull out the drawer
(Fig. 20) during this operation. It can seriously damage the
machine.There is no need to pull out the drawer until the display
shows the message
EMPTY TRAY
or
EMPTY GROUNDS
.
Please note:
You can always stop the brewing process by
pressing any of the coffee buttons.
9c. OVERRIDING STRENGTH AND CUP SIZE DURING
BREWING
The coffee strengths
for one-cup settings can be changed
before or during grinding.
The coffee volume
can be changed during brewing. This
feature will not change the factory setting.
Example:
Brew a 4 OZ cup of coffee,
STRONG
READY
• Open the cover for the Rotary Dial and turn the Rotary Dial
(Fig. 3.8) until the display shows
STRONG
.
• Push the Coffee Button (Fig. 3.5).
• When the coffee starts brewing, turn Rotary Dial until the
display shows,
4.0 OZ.
The C9 OT will brew 4.0 oz of coffee.
If you use the same coffee button again and do not use the
Rotary Dial, the C9 OT will brew a cup according to the
programmed settings for this button.
For re-programming see chapter 11 (cup sizes) and chapter
14.1 for cup sizes, temperature and strength.
9d. USING PRE-GROUND COFFEE
You can also use pre-ground coffee, bypassing the grinder.
This is convenient if someone requests decaf coffee, decaf
cappuccino or flavored coffee.
Please note:
Never fill the funnel with instant coffee. Do not fill
the funnel with more than two scoops. The funnel is not a storage
container. If coffee is ground too fine the brewing process may
be stopped.
