If the machine features a tamper, this can be used to press the coffee more uniformly (fig. 8), which
gives a even better cup of espresso. Remove any excess of coffee from the filter rim.
-
Attach the filter-holder as described previously (fig. 6), remembering to rotate it towards the right
as
far as it will go.
-
Place the pre-warmed cup or cups on the drip tray under the filter-holder spouts (fig. 9). When the
“OK” pilot lamp lights, press the delivery switch. When the desired quantity of coffee is obtained
(generally 20 - 30 seconds), turn the delivery switch (
U
) off.
-
Wait a few seconds before detaching the filter-holder by turning the handle from right to left.
-
To remove the used coffee grounds, retain the filter in position using the special lever fitted to the
handle; turn the filter-holder upside down and knock the coffee grounds out (fig. 10).
-
If the machine is not used for a long period of time, switch it off and drain the water tank.
When starting the machine again, carry out a pre-wash as described previously.
HOW TO MAKE AN AUTHENTIC ITALIAN CAPPUCCINO
-
Use a deep metal container, preferably of small diameter. Do not fill to more than 1/3rd, otherwise
the milk may overflow when it boils.
-
Switch the machine on by pressing the “ON/OFF” switch.
-
Press the steam switch (
T
). After about 3 minutes, the OK pilot lamp (fig. 11) lights to indicate that the
machine has reached the correct temperature for the generation of steam. Immerse the steam nozzle
in the milk and turn the steam control knob counterclockwise. Adjust the position of the knob to regu-
late the quantity of steam delivered by the nozzle.
When using the steam function, a few drops of water may escape from the nozzle: this is completely
normal. However, care should be taken to avoid scalding.
-
Immerse the steam outlet nozzle deeply into the milk in order to heat it (fig. 12).
-
Lower the container until the nozzle skims the surface of milk (fig. 13), immersing the nozzle slightly
from time to time for a few seconds.
Note: For a few moments, the steam will come out mixed together with a little water. In order to
obtain drier steam, hold the steam knob open for a few seconds.
-
If your coffee machine is equipped with a cappuccino nozzle, immerse the nozzle into the milk down
to the mark on the “cappuccino” nozzle (fig. 14).
Note: Immediately after use, unscrew and rinse the “cappuccino” nozzle to remove any milk deposit
(fig. 15). From time to time, use a pin to clean the holes in the cappuccino nozzle.
PRODUCING STEAM
Steam is useful for heating liquids such as tea, soup, etc.
Operating instructions
-
Press the ON/OFF switch (
S
) and the steam switch (
T
).
- After a few minutes, the “OK” pilot lamp lights to indicate that the machine has reached the correct
temperature for the selected function (in this case, the making of steam).
-
Immerse the steam nozzle in the liquid to be heated and turn the steam control knob counterclockwi-
se. Adjust the position of the knob to regulate the quantity of steam delivered by the nozzle.
-
When the liquid is hot, completely close the steam knob and turn the ON/OFF switch (
S
) and the-
steam switch (
T
) off.
-
Clean the steam nozzle immediately after use.
-
For a few moments, the steam will come out mixed together with a little water. In order to obtain drier
steam, hold the steam knob open for a few seconds.
If you have not used the machine to make coffee for a long period of time, you may have difficulty pro-
ducing steam.
