2 Preparation
Latte macchiato and Cappuccino
Your IMPRESSA can prepare a latte macchiato or
cappuccino at the touch of a button. There is no
need to move the glass or cup.
Example:
Proceed as follows to prepare one latte
macchiato.
Precondition:
The start screen is displayed. Milk is
connected to the dual spout.
T
Place a glass under the dual spout.
T
Touch
‘Latte macchiato’
.
‘Latte macchiato’
, the milk foam is prepared.
Preparation stops automatically when the
preset amount of milk is reached.
E
There is a short interval while the hot milk
separates from the milk foam. This allows
the typical layers of a latte macchiato to
form.
Coffee preparation starts. The preset
amount of water flows into the glass.
Preparation stops automatically. Your
IMPRESSA is once more ready for use.
To make sure the dual spout always works
properly, you must rinse and clean it regularly
(see Chapter 5 ‘Maintenance – Cleaning the milk
system’).
Latte macchiato doppio and Cappuccino
doppio
‘Doppio’ is Italian for ‘double’. When you prepare
a latte macchiato doppio or a cappuccino doppio,
two espressi
are dispensed one after the other
directly into the hot milk foam. The result is an
extra full-bodied and aromatic specialty coffee.
The amount of water and milk foam used for a
latte macchiato doppio and cappuccino doppio
cannot be changed. The amount of milk foam
is the same as for a ‘standard’ latte macchiato or
cappuccino. The two espressi are prepared with
half the amount of water programmed for latte
macchiato and cappuccino.
Permanently setting the amount of water
for the cup size
It is easy to permanently adjust the amount of
water for all single products and hot water
according to the cup size. Adjust the amount once
as shown in the following example. Every time you
prepare a drink in the future, this amount will be
dispensed.
The permanent settings for adapting the amount
of water to the cup size for all specialty coffees and
hot water follow this model.
Example:
Proceed as follows to
permanently
set
the amount of water for one coffee.
Precondition:
The start screen is displayed.
T
Place a cup under the coffee spout.
T
Touch the
‘Coffee’
box for
about 2 seconds
until
‘Enough coffee?’
appears.
Preparation starts and the coffee flows into
the cup.
T
Touch
‘Save’
as soon as there is sufficient
coffee in the cup.
Preparation stops.
‘Saved’
appears briefly on
the display. The set amount of water for one
coffee is permanently stored. Your IMPRESSA
is once more ready for use.
E
You can alter this setting at any time by
repeating the above procedure.
E
The amount can be permanently adjusted to
the cup size for the products shown in the
product selector view
too. Move your finger
across the display until the desired product
is displayed. Then touch
‘Prepare’
for
about
2 seconds
until

example decaffeinated coffee, with the filter funnel
for ground coffee.

Never add more than one level measuring
spoon of ground coffee.
