Tips
- The quality of the water strongly influences the quality of the aromas. Limescale and chlorine can alter the
taste of coffee. We recommend that you use the Claris Aqua Filter System cartridge, or water with low mineral
content, in order to preserve all the aromas of your coffee.
- When preparing drinks we recommend using preheated cups (by passing them under hot water) whose size
is adapted to your desired quantity.
- The roasted coffee beans can lose their aroma if they are not protected. We advise you to use the amount of
beans equivalent to your consumption over the coming 2-3 days and to choose 250g bags.
- The quality of the coffee beans is variable and tastes are subjective. Arabica will give you fine, floral aromas
unlike Robusta which is higher in caffeine, more bitter and full-bodied. It is common to mix the two types of
coffee to get a more balanced coffee. Please do not hesitate to seek advice from your roaster.
- We do not recommend the use of oily and caramelised beans as these can damage the machine.
- The fineness of the ground beans influences the strength of the aromas and the quality of the crema. The
more finely ground the beans, the smoother the crema. Grinding can also be adapted for the desired drink.
- Use pasteurised, UHT, skimmed, semi-skimmed or whole milk from the fridge (3-5°C) for best results.
- The use of special milks: micro filtered, raw, fermented, enriched or plant milks such as rice, oat or almond
milk can give results that are less satisfactory in terms of quality and quantity of froth.
