The current settings for the amount of
coffee, brewing temperature and
pre-brewing will be displayed for this
drink.
Amount of coffee
The coffee machine can grind and
brew 6-14 g of coffee per cup. The
greater the quantity, the stronger the
coffee or espresso.
There are various ways to tell whether
the amount of coffee is set correctly.
The amount of coffee is
too low
if:
– Espresso or coffee flows into the cup
too quickly.
– The crema is very pale and uneven.
– The espresso or coffee lacks body.
Increase the amount of coffee so that
more ground coffee is brewed.
The amount of coffee is
too high
if:
– Espresso or coffee only trickles into
the cup.
– The crema is dark brown.
– The espresso or coffee tastes bitter.
Decrease the amount of coffee so that
less ground coffee is brewed.

Select "Amount of coffee" and touch
OK.

Use the arrow sensors to change the
amount.
Then touch OK.

Brew temperature
The ideal brewing temperature will
depend on
– the type of coffee being used,
– whether an espresso or a coffee is
being made, and
– the altitude of the region.
If the coffee machine is located at more
than 2000 metres above sea level, the
brewing temperature needs to be set
lower due to the change in pressure.
This is because the boiling point for
water at a high altitude above sea level
is lower than the boiling point for water
at sea level.
The coffee machine has five brewing
temperatures.
Tip:
Not all types of coffee can
withstand high temperatures. Certain
types are too delicate - the crema on
top would not be as good and the taste
would be impaired.

OK.
