Features
Power save function
The appliance has a power save function. The power save mode is activated 10 minutes after the last use, i. e. the
thermoblock switches off, the temperature in the heating circuit cools down slowly. The appliance can be activated
again any time and is ready for use after a few seconds. This saves energy and protects the environment.
Single circuit system
By means of the single circuit system, coffee/espresso, hot water and milk froth can be prepared. After preparing hot
water or milk froth, the thermoblock has to cool down a little before coffee/espresso can be prepared.
19 bar pump pressure
For aromatic espresso with perfect crema, high pressure is required. The appliance is equipped with a high-quality pump
generating high pressure up to max. 19 bar to press the hot water through the coffee/espresso powder in the portafilter.
This ensures perfect results.
Aluminium die-cast thermoblock
The thermoblock is ready for use after a short heating-up period. The massive construction of the thermoblock ensures
an always constant temperature for making espresso.
Pre-brew function
Before the actual brewing procedure, the coffee/espresso powder is sprinkled with hot water for a few seconds. Thus,
the coffee/espresso powder steeps what dissolves the flavouring agents better. Afterwards, the brewing procedure is
continued with high pressure and coffee/espresso is prepared.
Programmable cup capacity
The cup capacity can be adjusted individually via the integrated electronics.
Preparation starts at the push of a button and the appliance stops automatically when the set capacity is reached.
The pre-set capacity for 1 cup is 50 ml and 100 ml for 2 cups.
Water filter
The appliance comes with an exchangeable water filter. It cleans and demineralises the water. It ensures a consistently
good water quality and prevents the appliance from calcifying quickly. The filter must be exchanged regularly to ensure
flawless function.
Electronic water level control
The appliance features an electronic water level control. If there is not sufficient water in the water tank, this state will
be indicated by a quickly blinking pilot lamp.
Height-adjustable cup tray
The cup tray can be adapted to the size of the used cup. Thus, optimal filling of the cup is ensured.
Cup warmer function
The tray on the upper site of the appliance can be used as cup warmer. The waste heat of the internal thermoblock
heats this area as long as the appliance is in use and not in power save mode.
