E
You can continue to prepare steam for the next 40 seconds or
so without the machine having to heat up again.
To ensure that the fine foam frother always works properly,
you must clean it
daily
when you have been preparing milk (see
Chapter 5 ‘Maintenance – Cleaning the fine foam frother’). Your
IMPRESSA will
not
prompt you to clean the fine foam frother.
You can choose to use a second coffee variety, for example decaf-
feinated coffee, with the filter funnel for ground coffee.
E
Never add more than two level measuring spoons of ground
coffee.
E
Use ground coffee which is not ground too finely. Very fine
coffee can block up the system so that the coffee only comes
out in drips.
E
If you did not fill the machine with a sufficient amount of
ground coffee,
LOW FILL GROUND C
is displayed and the
IMPRESSA stops the operation.
