7 Coff ee Brewing
Warning! During coff ee brewing it is forbidden
to remove the pressurized fi lter holder by manu-
ally turning it from right to left. Danger of burns!
• During this operation, the "
" light (14) is blinking; this
is to be considered as a standard and not a faulty operating
mode.
• Before using the machine, make sure that there is enough
water in the machine tank.
Note: if the steam knob is opened by mistake
during the warm-up phase, the "
" light (20)
starts blinking. Close the knob and wait until the ma-
chine is ready.
If coff ee is NOT brewed after pressing the brew
button "
" (13), press the brew button "
"
(13) again and check the "Troubleshooting" table before
removing the fi lter holder.
Ensure the machine is ready before brewing coff ee. The ma-
chine is ready when the "
" light (14) is steady on.
7.1 Filter Holder Warm-Up
If the "rinse" function is not activated and/or the fi lter holder is
to be warmed-up manually, do as follows:
•
13
Insert the pressurized fi lter holder into the brew unit
(4) from the bottom.
•
14
Turn the pressurized fi lter holder from left to right un-
til it locks into place. Release the pressurized fi lter holder
grip. The handle will turn slightly to the left. This move-
ment guarantees optimum fi lter holder performance.
•
17
Preheat the pressurized fi lter holder by pressing the
(13) button; some water will fl ow out of the pressurized
fi lter holder (this operation is necessary only for the fi rst
coff ee).
• After 50 cc of water have been dispensed, press the (13)
button again to stop the dispensing procedure.
•
19
Remove the pressurized fi lter holder by turning it from
right to left and then drain the remaining water.
Place a container under the dispensing spout.
Now you can go on with the coff ee brewing procedures de-
scribed in the following sections.
7.2 Using Ground Coff ee
•
7
Insert the fi lter (23) in the pressurized fi lter holder
(21); at fi rst use, the fi lter is already on. With the special
fi lter (23) provided there is no need to change the fi lter to
make one or two coff ee(s).
•
8
Add 1-1.5 measuring scoop(s) for a single coff ee and 2
measuring scoops for a double coff ee. Remove any coff ee
residues from the rim of the pressurized fi lter holder.
Note: do not press the coff ee, since the fi lter
holder is provided with an optimized system
for original espresso brewing.
•
13
Insert the fi lter holder (21) into the brew unit (4) from
the bottom.
•
14
Turn the fi lter holder from left to right until it locks
into place.

Take
1 or 2 preheated cups
and place them un-
der the pressurized fi lter holder. Make sure that they are
placed correctly under the coff ee brewing nozzles.
•

Press the "
" button (13).
•

When the desired quantity of coff ee has been brewed,
press the "
" button (13) again to stop the brewing pro-
cedure. Wait for a few seconds after brewing, then remove
the cups of coff ee.

After brewing, wait until the "
" coff ee light (14)
stops blinking, then remove the pressurized fi lter holder
by turning it from right to left and empty the remaining
coff ee grounds.
Note: a small quantity of water remains in the
pressurized fi lter holder. This has to be consid-
ered as absolutely normal and is due to the fi lter holder
characteristics.
Important note: the fi lter (23) should be kept
clean to guarantee perfect results. Clean daily
after use.
