Coffee Dose Programming - Gaggia Baby Dose Mode D'emploi

ENGLISH
NOTE: The temperature ready-light (7) will
automatically flash as the machine boiler
heats. After switching on the machine for the
first coffee, wait 6 minutes until the machine
has fully heated up, while for all subsequent
coffees the machine will be ready to use.
Another feature of the machine is the "no-drip
system", eliminating most of dripping from
brewing head (14).
After coffee brewing, however, a little dripping
may occur due to wet coffee grinds in the filter-
holder.
Caution: Never operate pump
without water in machine as damage
to the pump may occur.Damage of
pump run without water is not covered by
warranty.
Important to know......
1. The taste of your coffee depends on the
characteristics of the beans from which it
is made, the type of bean, where it was
grown and processed. The coffee beans
that are roasted for a longer period of time
and at higher temperatures will be much
darker in colour.Darker beans will produce
a richer cup of coffee than the lightly-roasted
beans.
2. A variety of dark roasts are available from
which you can choose to brew your espres-
so. Each of these roasts is a blend of coffee
beans that are roasted at a specific tempe-
rature producing a specific type of flavour.
There are decaffeinated beans that have
up to 98% of the caffeine content removed.
The next time you purchase coffee for your
espresso maker, experiment with one of the
many kinds of coffee being sold. You may
just find that it tastes better than the blend
you have been using.
3. A fine "espresso grind" for pump-driven
machines must be used. Be sure to ask for this
when buying coffee or when having beans
ground. Do not use a blade-type grinder
because it makes too much coffee dust and
produces an irregular grind.
4. The mark of real espresso is its dark color,
rich taste and the light brown, natural froth
called "crema" in Italian.
5. Cappuccino is simply a combination of
espresso and hot, frothy milk.Cappuccino
is usually topped with cinnamon, nutmeg or
cocoa powder.
6. Espresso Coffee should be served immedia-
tely after it is made.
7. Espresso is served in 2 to 2 ½ oz. demitasse
cups. A 4 or 6 oz. cup or glass is used for
cappuccino
8. Ideally, coffee beans should be ground im-
mediately before using. Remember, it must
be an "espresso grind" for pump-driven
espresso machines.
9. It's best to store ground coffee or beans in
an airtight container in the freezer of your
refrigerator. Ground coffee tends to absorb
food odours.
