9.3 Adjusting the coffee mill
The coffee mill is set by default to prepare coffee correctly and
should not require regulating initially.
However, if after making the first few coffees you find that the
coffee is either too weak and not creamy enough or delivery is
too slow (a drop at a time), this can be corrected by adjusting
the grinding adjustment dial (A5 - fig. 10).
Please note!
The grinding adjustment dial must only be turned when the
coffee mill is in operation.
If the coffee is delivered too slowly or
not at all, turn one click clockwise to-
wards “7”.
For fuller bodied creamier coffee, turn
one click anticlockwise towards “1” (do
not turn more than one click at a time
otherwise the coffee could be delivered a drop at a time).
These adjustments will only be evident after at least 2 cups of
coffee have been delivered. If this adjustment does not obtain
the desired result, turn the dial another click.
9.4 Tips for a hotter coffee
For hotter coffee, you should:
•
perform a rinse cycle by selecting the “Rinse” function in
the settings menu (see section “8.1 Rinsing
”);
•
warm the cups with hot water (using the hot water func-
tion, see section “12. Delivering hot water”);
•
increase the coffee temperature in the settings menu (see
section “8.10 Coffee temperature ”).
9.5 Making coffee using coffee beans
Important!
Do not use caramelised or candied coffee beans as they could
stick to the coffee mill and make it unusable.
1. Fill the container (A3) (fig. 11) with coffee beans;
2. Place a cup under the coffee spouts (A8);
3. Lower the spouts as near as possible to the cup (fig. 12).
This makes a creamier coffee;
4. Press <(B10) or > (B8) until the required coffee is
displayed;
5. Then select your required coffee:
•
ESPRESSO
•
•
COFFEE
•
LONG
• 2 ESPRESSO
6. Preparation begins. An image of the selected drink appears
on the display (B) together with a progress bar which grad-
ually fills as preparation progresses.
Please note:
•
You can prepare 2 cups of ESPRESSO coffee at the same
time by pressing “2X
“ during preparation of 1
ESPRESSO (the image is displayed for a few seconds at the
start of preparation).
•
While the machine is making coffee, delivery can be inter-
rupted at any moment by pressing “
STOP”.
•
As soon as delivery has ended, to increase the quantity of
coffee in the cup, just press “
EXTRA”. When the required
quantity is reached, press “
STOP”.
Once the coffee has been made, the appliance is ready to make
the next drink.
Please note!
• Various alarm messages could be displayed while using
the appliance (FILL TANK, EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER,
etc.). Their meaning is explained in section “23. Displayed
messages”.
•
For hotter coffee, see section “9.4 Tips for a hotter coffee”.
•
If the coffee is delivered a drop at a time, too weak and not
creamy enough or too cold, read the tips in section “9.3 Ad-
justing the coffee mill” and section “24. Troubleshooting”.
•
Preparation of each coffee can be customised (see sections
“14. Customising the drinks” and “15. Memorising your
personal profile”).
9.6 Making coffee using pre-ground coffee
Important!
•
Never add pre-ground coffee when the machine is off or it
could spread through the inside of the machine and dirty
it. This could damage the appliance.
•
Never use more than 1 level measure (C2) or it could dirty
the inside of the coffee machine or block the funnel (A4).
Please note!
If you use pre-ground coffee, you can only make one cup of cof-
fee at a time.
1. Press
“ AROMA” (B6) repeatedly until “
” (pre-
ground) appears on the display (B);
2. Open the pre-ground coffee funnel lid (A2);
3. Make sure the funnel (A4) is not blocked, then add one
level measure of pre-ground coffee (fig. 13);
4. Place a cup under the coffee spouts (A8) (fig. 12);
5. Press the image corresponding to the required coffee (ES-
PRESSO, COFFEE, LONG);
