Brewing coffee
Brewing coffee with beans
Caution: Only use espresso beans. Never put ground coffee, unroasted
coffee beans or caramelized coffee beans in the bean hopper, as this may
cause damage to the machine.
To brew coffee, follow the instructions on the separate quick start guide.
To brew two cups of espresso or espresso lungo, press the button of the
desired beverage twice. The machine automatically carries out two grinding
cycles in sequence.
Note: Using the cover of the bean hopper helps to keep the beans fresh.
Brewing coffee with pre-ground coffee
When you brew coffee with pre-ground coffee, use the measuring scoop
supplied to put the correct dose in the pre-ground coffee compartment. Do
not add too much pre-ground coffee to avoid the coffee grounds drawer
from getting clogged.
