Danger of burning and scalding
at the dispensers.
The liquids and steam dispensed are
very hot and can cause scalding.
Keep away from the area underneath
the dispensers when hot liquids and
steam are being dispensed.
Do not touch hot components.
Making coffee with and
without milk
The following drinks can be made:
- Ristretto is a concentrated, stronger
espresso. It is prepared with the
same amount of coffee as for an
espresso but with a lot less water.
- Espresso is a strong aromatic coffee
with a thick hazelnut-brown colored
froth – known as the crema – on top.
We recommend using espresso-
roasted coffee beans to make an
espresso.
- Coffee differs from espresso by the
increased amount of water and the
roast of the beans.
We recommend using coffee beans
of the correct roast to make the
coffee.
- Lungo is a coffee with significantly
more water.
- Capuccino consists of approx.
2 thirds milk froth and 1 third
espresso.
- Latte macchiato consists of 1 third
each of hot milk, milk froth, and
espresso.
- Caffè latte consists of espresso and
hot milk.
Hot milk and milk froth can also be
made.
Milk preparation
Milk or milk alternatives (e.g., soy
milk) containing added sugar can
clog up the milk pipe and the rest of
the milk pipework. Residues from
unsuitable liquids can interfere with
milk preparation.
The milk used must not contain any
additives.
Only use pasteurized cow's milk.
If you have not made any milk drinks
for a while, rinse the milk pipework
thoroughly before making the first
drink.
Tip: Using cold cow's milk
(< 50°F/10°C) with a protein content of
at least 3% will produce the perfect
milk froth.
You can select milk with a fat content
according to your personal preference.
With whole milk (at least 3.5% fat), the
milk froth will be slightly creamier than
with low-fat milk.
