Thank you for having purchased this Krups Espresseria Automatic. We are sure you will enjoy both the quality of the coffee
it makes and how easy it is to use.
Whether you want a short, strong shot of a ristretto, a good espresso, a bigger and milder lungo, or a creamy cappuccino,
your automatic coffee / espresso machine has been designed so you can enjoy the same quality at home as at the bistro,
whatever the time of day and right through the week.
Thanks to its Thermoblock System, its 15 bar pump and because it uses real coffee beans that are ground just before the
coffee is made, your Espresseria Automatic will give you a drink containing maximum aroma, with a fine creamy golden
brown top produced by the natural oils contained in coffee beans.
Drink your espresso from small porcelain cups rather than the usual coffee cup or mug.
To obtain an espresso at just the right temperature and a nice compact creamy top, we advise you to pre-heat your cup.
After a few trial runs you will find the type of mix and roast of the coffee beans that suits your taste. The quality of the water
used is obviously another essential factor in the coffee you get.
Make sure the water has come fresh out of the tap (contact with the air tends to make it stagnate), that it is free from
chlorine odours and relatively cold.
Espresso coffee is richer in aroma than a conventional filter coffee. Despite its stronger, longer-lasting taste, espresso in
fact contains less caffeine than filter coffee (about 60 to 80 mg a cup as compared with 80 to 100 mg a cup). This is due
to the shorter percolation time.
Due to the visibility of the containers and its automatic cleaning and scale removal programs, your Espresseria Automatic is
extremely easy to use.
