With SENSEO
®
, you can enjoy a perfect cup of coffee with a delicious crema layer whenever you
feel like it. Each cup is freshly brewed, so you’re always sure of a pure and round taste. SENSEO
®
combines a unique brewing method from Philips with convenient coffee pods available in different
blends of fine roast and ground coffee. Together they make sure you only get the very best in
flavour and aroma from the coffee.
The convenient SENSEO
®
coffee pods and Philips’ unique SENSEO
®
brewing system are perfectly
matched to ensure that the best taste and aroma are extracted from the coffee.
To optimise the taste of the coffee, keep the following aspects in mind:
Clean cold water
Use clean cold water every day. If you have not used the coffee machine for three days, you have to
flush it with clean cold water before you use it again (see section ‘Flushing’ in chapter ‘Cleaning’).
Fresh coffee pods
Use the SENSEO
®
coffee pods that have been specially developed for your SENSEO
®
coffee
machine for a full, round taste. SENSEO
®
coffee pods stay fresh longer when you store them in a
storage container.
A clean machine
Clean and descale the Philips SENSEO
®
coffee machine regularly (see chapters ‘Cleaning’ and
‘Descaling’). Remove used coffee pods after brewing. If a used pod has been left in the coffee
machine and you have not used the machine for some time, flush the machine before you use it
again (see section ‘Flushing’ in chapter ‘Cleaning’).
For more information on why it is important to descale, how to descale or which descaler to use,
